There's a lot of denial and self-loathing. Conner and Caroline have a couple of things in common: they're both very manic (Conner with his shrill, Butlins Red-coat insistence on fun, japes and pranks; Caroline with her extreme over-reactions to people and out of control mouth). Then there is the pretending that they don't care when they do. Conner is forever saying he doesn't give a ****, when he clearly cares deeply and has a massive chip on his shoulder (he has never forgiven Deana putting him up on the first night and has driven himself mad trying to work out why). Like Conner, Caroline has developed the habit of saying the opposite of the truth at all times, with the exception of the strange little interjections she uses when she's bitching about someone ('I’m clearly very irritating', 'I turn into superbitch', 'I look like a whale'), so she runs at the mouth pretending she is delighted with being unpopular and doesn't care that she's hurt people and then the other little voice in her head makes her draw attention to her own terrible behaviour. The mania was there for all to see at her eviction. At the very least she has 'issues', including a strong inability to relate to people, (even on a day to day basis), and this was most clearly shown by her bizarre fear of sex and intimacy.
