Like others have said I just find them tedious to watch.

I'll admit I'm normally cynical about them too when yeah you have a point that stuff like that is likely to happen naturally and I've been wrong in the past (Grace & Mikey for example), but mostly it's just that I don't find them very interesting.

If Ashley or Genuwine were people we didn't like we would be hating their showmance, personally I find it a bit boring whoever it is and BB cant get enough of it.for me it kinda ruins peoples chances as their own personalities get lost in the romance.

what romance, i kinda feel sad for Ginuwine how he lost both his parents to suicide

and also him being unlucky in his lovelife :(


i'm for now glad that Ashley just wants to have a good time in the house with him, if it were daniel the creep i would be very disappointed in ashley i must admit

The guy has 9 kids to an unspecified number of women something tells me if he's unlucky in love it's probably down to him.

he has been married like 5 times ;), so he's made the wrong choices


well i like Ashley for still showing the respect for listening to his story, and also keeping India calm


and about Rachel, well i saw her staring at both Ginuwine and Ashley, and her being more his age i can see her liking him

I've think we've seen too many showmances in the past and people are tired of the show focusing on fake romance.

I don't have an issue with them pairing up, as you say if you put age similar, good looking people together some of them will get off.

It's just focussing on it that bugs me. If it was like a subplot to everything else it wouldn't bother me.
