Marco being bullied?

[Gusto Brunt]

I had a tad sympathy for the guy when they all started talking behind his back while being nice to his face.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Yes and if he stays it will only get worse. Noticed he was alone when they were all in the sitting room.

[LukeB]

No he isn't he's acting like a pathetic 6 year old

[ChristmasNeeve]

Talking about someone behind their back and being nice to their face isn't really bullying though, it's par for the course on BB really or any situation where you're locked away with someone as annoying as marco i would imagine

[Gusto Brunt]

Yes and if he stays it will only get worse. Noticed he was alone when they were all in the sitting room.

Which means he could win, if the house goes against him.

[Gusto Brunt]

It could be argued he's being ostracised.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

They could talk to him but no, they prefer to isolate him :fist:

[ChristmasNeeve]

It could be argued he's being ostracised.

I haven't seen him being ostracised :shrug:

[y.winter]

Let's not go there. It's Marco, he does the things he does and get quite logic reactions.

[ChristmasNeeve]

They could talk to him but no, they prefer to isolate him :fist:

what? How have they isolated him? what the hell :laugh:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

what? How have they isolated him? what the hell :laugh:

Talking behind his back, then walking away when he comes in. Not nice.

[Kazanne]

I think the hate for Marco on here is way OTT,its making me want to support him although I don't like any of them in the house that much,but I don't see what he has done so wrong.

[Kazanne]

Talking behind his back, then walking away when he comes in. Not nice.

I agree,I felt a bit sorry for him,why cant they just tell him to his face.

[ChristmasNeeve]

Talking behind his back, then walking away when he comes in. Not nice.

Honestly If i were in there I'd walk away everytime he came near me too, annoying little prick :hee:

[Denver]

It could be argued he's being ostracised.

the same way he treid to do it to Ryan? :hee:

[ChristmasNeeve]

the same way he treid to do it to Ryan? :hee:

yes he was head ostraciser then if I recall correctly :hee:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

I agree, he's not that bad, but in here you'd think he was a serial killer :shrug:

[Visage]

He would be the last person I would want to sit with. I find him totally uncomfortable to be around and that's before he starts singing.

[Drew.]

None of them can stand him, its understandable

[Christmas Dynasnow]

His abhorrent fake bonhomie is excruciating and the other housemates have had enough

Does this guy have any actual friends in real life because I cant see that

[ChristmasNeeve]

probably a lot of hangers on and yes men, following the rich kid around to get a free party etc

[Braden]

It's really not bullying. Some of the housemates are growing tired of him already, and that's understandable from what we've seen. However, it's pretty obvious that he has a group of friends in the house. He hasn't been ostracised yet so it's silly to assume as such.

All of this tbh :clap2:

[TomC]

Please, he's not being bullied/ostracized... They're quite rightly getting sick of him.

[Josy]

Oh **** the bully word has reared it's ugly head.

I see no bullying so far on this series.

[Christmas Dynasnow]

He is like Pete a bit but with none of his charm and humour

[sampvt]

The energiser bunnyhas run out of gas now nobody wants to associate with him as he is loopy and toxic. He ostracised himself and he will walk, as I predicted on the first night.

[Tom4784]

Talking about someone isn't bullying.

Marco's the only person in the main house who has shown an aggressive and potential violent streak over nothing. He's insufferable so I can't blame people for having had enough of him.

[MarcusMel]

I'm thinkng Marco is like the HM who hid food in the dustbins and got ignored because he was so overwhelmed by the experience. Got thrown out of the house as I recall.

[Gusto Brunt]

Oh **** the bully word has reared it's ugly head.

I see no bullying so far on this series.

Didn't you feel sorry for him how they were starting to slag him off behind his back.

It's like what kids do at school. I'm not Marco's biggest fan but I hate treatment like that.:fist:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

That's out of order. :bored:

[Gusto Brunt]

That's out of order. :bored:

Let's face it. Marco's only 'crime' is that he is loud and he had consensual fumblings with Laura.

He hasn't actually said anything nasty about anyone.:smug:

[Josy]

No, they all talk behind each others backs, it happens all the time in bb, that's not bullying.

[Ross.]

Oh come on

He behaves like a child how can you blame people for being sick of his **** and walking away, he makes people uncomfortable and I commend the housemates for not walking from the house yet because of him :clap1:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Let's face it. Marco's only 'crime' is that he is loud and he had consensual fumblings with Laura.

He hasn't actually said anything nasty about anyone.:smug:

Exactly. He isn't constantly bitching about anyone in there. He usually just minds his own business or hangs out with his friends in there. No matter what he does they always complain about him :fist:

[Livia]

Oh **** the bully word has reared it's ugly head.

I see no bullying so far on this series.

It's a little late this season, don't you think? Usually we've had a long debate on bullying by now. I was starting to hope we'd get through a series without it, but no. It's like expecting to get through a series without someone telling me I'm jealous because I don't like a particular female...

[GiRTh]

I think the hate for Marco on here is way OTT,its making me want to support him although I don't like any of them in the house that much,but I don't see what he has done so wrong.He had a go at Georgina for 'shouting' when she did nothing wrong. He picked that argument to belittle and talk down to her. He acts like a curious 5 year old with the way he tries to break mics and cameras. Its easy to see why they've had enough of him.

[letmein]

Bullied? Oh, god, find a new buzzword please.

Last night he was minding his own business and they still talked behind his back. :fist:

[Withano]

I had a tad sympathy for the guy when they all started talking behind his back while being nice to his face.

Im not sure if thats worse than them continuing being mean to his face, what would have wanted them to do? Start abusing him because he sat near them?

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

The more i see the housemates bitching behind his back but nice to his faace the more i like Marco. I hate bullying of any kind.

[ChristmasNeeve]

because you didn't like him at all before this outrageous behaviour :fan:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

because you didn't like him at all before this outrageous behaviour :fan:

I did and this kind of behaviour makes me like him more.

[Garfie]

To be honest, if someone irritates any of us we are likely to need to vent those feelings. I really don't think anyone could honestly say they've never moaned about someone's behaviour behind their backs at some point, because we all need the opportunity to get things of our chest and it's better that way than letting feelings build up inside until they explode and cause a massive confrontation.

Marco is loud, hyperactive and irritating - sometimes people want a bit of time to chill, and the last thing they need is someone like that bouncing around noisily when they want a bit of time out. Hence, they understandably walk away.

A couple of them also suggested they were uncomfortable with him invading their personal space and being too touchy feely - Marco seems to lack basic social skills and has difficulty reading or recognising the non verbal clues others give off.

To top it all they've seen him being aggressive and heard him threatening to use violence towards a security guard. Put all this together and you have someone that others are going to start feeling wary of as it makes him exhausting and unpredictable.

Expressing their feelings to those they trust is not bullying or ostracising.

I'm not sure if that's even possible :laugh:

He isn't the only one who has behaved aggressively in there. But no question he will be isolated, they always need a scapegoat in there.

As always, this vile relentless bullying has now made me want marco to win.

He is rapidly climbing on my all time least favorite list and i haven't seen anything that comes anywhere close to bullying

[Kazanne]

Ah, he raised his voice to Georgina,horrible man:hee:how very dare he.

[GiRTh]

Ah, he raised his voice to Georgina,horrible man:hee:how very dare he.What did he raise his for? Nothing. So yes horrible man.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Now if Marco had called someone a twat,dick and immature,you'de have called him what?

[Dollface]

Marco's actually growing on me :shame:

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Last night Marco did nothing wrong and yet the housemate still were talking behind his back. Is he even allowed to breathe? :nono:

[Garfie]

He isn't the only one who has behaved aggressively in there. But no question he will be isolated, they always need a scapegoat in there.

No, he isn't the only one who has been aggressive, I totally agree, but that wasn't the only thing i mentioned - but be objective and put all of his characteristics together and it is understandable why others are venting and moving away. This isn't about bullying or ostracising, it's about getting a bit of peace and respite for a short time, and there are plenty of other people he could be spending time with.

He needs to take responsibility for his own behaviour and learn to be more socially aware. If people started moaning about me, or wanting space from me, I would actually be taking a good look at myself and trying to address the reason it was happening. Marco doesn't recognise or respect anyone else's needs, and that's the problem here.

[LukeB]

Now if Marco had called someone a twat,dick and immature,you'de have called him what?

depends on why he said it.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Marco's actually growing on me :shame:

he isn't that bad, he's just different. but i think deep down he's a nice kid. very immature, but not nasty. that lot talking behind his back then nice to his front is not acting any better.

[Kazanne]

What did he raise his for? Nothing. So yes horrible man.

He raised his voice as she was shouting at him,I saw the footage,he felt she should have pulled him aside and told him instead of shouting it to the rest of the house,nothing wrong with that ,I don't dislike her,but really she DOES have faults.

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

Well as long as it wasn't said to princess Georgina he'de be ok :hehe: All those that like Georgina ,hate Marco,I wonder why?:hee:

Secondly, why should she pull him to one side when everyone is there and he's acting like a 5 year old? He thought she embarrassed him with the way she gave the message but, as she pointed out he'd have never had a go at one of the lads if they'd have done the same thing.

[Garfie]

Well as long as it wasn't said to princess Georgina he'de be ok :hehe: All those that like Georgina ,hate Marco,I wonder why?:hee:

Disliking someone's behaviour is not hating a person, nor is expressing an opinion on that behaviour.

It is also nothing to do with badmouthing that person because of a liking for someone else. I don't particularly like or dislike Georgina!

I think forum members need to be credited with more intelligence than this - such sweeping judgements suggest that anyone who dares to express an opinion on Marco does not have the ability to step back and be objective. They do.

Some people seem to be defending Marco whatever he does, as if he is some 6 year old child, and are selectively ignoring certain things he does! He is a grown man, and that is actually patronising towards him!

[Garfie]

But he isn't bothering anyone in there. If they are bothered by him they need to tell him.

I disagree with your first comment- the exact reason why they are moaning about him and moving away is because he's bothering them!

I think the aggression he has displayed makes people wary of telling him because he is unpredictable, and they are unsure of how he will react.

Discussing our feelings with others, is a way of understanding them before we feel able to express them sometimes. And sometimes we need a bit of time and thinking things through so that when we do tell someone it can be expressed in a tactful and sensitive way. Maybe that's what's happening here?

[sungrass]

Talking behind his back, then walking away when he comes in. Not nice.

Sadly its most peoples nature to do this to people...

No, he doesn't....and calling people a wretched piece of sh-t just sounds cowardly to me.....he's not been vindictive to any of them or bad mouthed any of them....the guys trying to be liked but pushes people away cause he tries too hard ....that doesn't mean he deserves to be cold shouldered like last night...isolating the wierd kid is playground mentality ...it's no more mature than the behaviour he displays by being hyper....it's a front he's putting on and it's more obvious right after incidents like that take place...that singing and performance in front of Andy is a cover up....prob for how crap he felt about them all just walking away like they did....try looking behind the smoke screen he puts up and you will see in his expression there's a lot going on and it ain't all happy stuff....his not all bad ....he was straight over to Andy when the others called him boring and he was visibly gutted when Chelsea left and offered to swap places with him.....in any situation people have the choice to just look at the surface and be superficial or they can be kinder and look a bit deeper....you shud try it, it's a far more interesting

Avoiding an annoying attention seeking man-child is not bullying my love.

I don't put up with immature drug addled tools in real life, so I certainly wouldn't in a confined space like BB.

[susie q]

He had a go at Georgina for 'shouting' when she did nothing wrong. He picked that argument to belittle and talk down to her. He acts like a curious 5 year old with the way he tries to break mics and cameras. Its easy to see why they've had enough of him.

He also threatened to hit staff in the camera run to. Hes got his own little gang, Laura, Evelyn, Emma etc so hes not on his own. He has also done his share of Ostracising.

[hot2go]

Avoiding an annoying attention seeking man-child is not bullying my love.

Didn't say it was, never have ...I think they isolate him...only time I've seen him bullied was on BOTS...
I responded to the person who said he's a piece of sh-t and said he deserves to be bullied.....hate as a hobby...

I don't think he's been bullied in the house by anyone...don't know where or why you think I've said that

[Amy Jade]

So he was slagging off Georgina to Emma so is Marco a bully too?

[Marsh.]

He's put himself on the show to be talked about, all of the housemates have.
It's not bullying if that talk is then negative.

[Amy Jade]

Bullied on BOTS? it's a bloody panel show discusing the show and the housemates, just because a majority dislike him doesn't mean he's being bullied. I swear this reaching is laughable

[Good King Glennceslas]

Can anyone dispute that he's a piece of ****?

[hot2go]

He's put himself on the show to be talked about, all of the housemates have.
It's not bullying if that talk is then negative.

Maybe take that concept up with one of the people who thinks he's being bullied....you're not reading what I am saying so there's no point us carrying on with the conversation. We never bounced along together on here in the past so better for you and for me to continue as we were before you messaged me this evening. Good luck with your time on the forum.

I actually think you're spot on here regarding the smoke screen and what is behind it. However, sometimes people need a bit of time out from those who are so loud, hyperactive and overbearing, and I honestly think they needed it then and that was why they needed to walk away. This must be even more intensified in such a confined space.

If all of them were doing this all of the time then this would be like isolating the weird kid in the playground. However, this is just one occasion at the moment.
