People fancy each others partners all the time. Anyone on here with a long term partner I can practically guarantee someone they work with will fancy them, and more than likely be attracted to someone else as well.

We're humans not robots. The choices we make to block out other advances are ours and ours alone, it is never up to the person who fancies your partner to back off.

Very good post Jesus x

Paul got most of the criticism as I said, but for slightly different reasons than Hazel in the Hazel - Daley situation. Basically, people said - wrongly - he wouldn't be interested in Helen outside of the house.

The likability factor, and how popular she was as a housemate, makes a big difference with Helen when comparing to the situation now. But even then I remember Simon Pegg on BBLB criticising Helen for going after Paul in the house when she had a boyfriend on the outside. So the same issues were spoken about at the time.

hhhmmm maybe by memory is a little hazy then, still though I guess the one thing that is correct is that people weren't annoyed with Paul for being a Home Wrecker like Hazel or more specifically the girl always does in these situations

This reminiscing about BB2 really makes me want to rewatch it, it was such a good Series

Yeah, that series is the reason I joined these forums in the first place.
