Callum was being his genuine self being kind and supportive. But then, Dan had a problem with it and criticized him for it, mainly behind his back might I add. As a result, due to his low self esteem to begin with, Callum resorted back to the 'lad' type character that he expected would please everyone, because people wouldn't accept him for who he was. As a result, Charlie criticized him for not being real. The issue with identity is what upset Callum, not Charlie liking him. The guy is such a gentleman and unfortunately people like Dan who are so focussed on themselves and winning, need to bring nice people like Callum down to feel better about themselves.
I know you're a Dan fan Joey, and I respect that. But in all honesty, he really is my second least favourite housemate in Big Brother history, just because of how sly and manipulative he is. He was one of my favourites at the start because I saw him as a nice guy, but he really hasn't been and the way he treats Callum is really unfair and quite cruel, in my opinion.

Hey no way,don't be be sorry to disagree with me Barker, you really like Callum and see things differently to me as I point out, just as you do too.No worries.
You reason in a good way and I fully respect that.
Dan is not perfect and I have cringed at times at things he has said and done in the house but like you as to Callum, I myself see a great deal of good in Dan just as you do in Callum too.
We really like different housemates,that's all but I always respect the others views when I can.
I can obviously never change your thinking but I wouldn't be a true supporter of someone if I didn't make my points too.
Carry on disagreeing, I have a feeling we will have much to discuss in the weeks to follow too.
You have though influenced in a small way one thing, I was voting to evict Callum but am now voting to evict the Twins my other choice to go, so for you, I hope Callum stays.
