For a man of his age, Heavy D is very naive as concerns relationships - however, naive as he is, it is obvious that his situation with Chloe has genuinely upset him and hurt his feelings. He is being over-sensitive, but both Bear and Chloe knew that but chose to behave in a way that was intentionally insensitive, which says a lot about their characters.

I find the whole situation between Bear and Chloe quite pathetic. He has no feelings for her, and is merely using her to get at others and for a bit of action. She has no feelings for him, and is using the situation to boost her self-esteem and to make herself feel relevant. The situation is degrading to Chloe and it is sad that she, and so many others from reality shows, feel the only thing they have to offer is their bodies and overtly sexual behaviour which is designed to shock. I actually think Bear's treatment of Chloe is as bad as Heavy D's, and in some ways worse when motives are considered.

Those in the 'squad' are so shallow, and have no depth of character- they are just not pleasant people, and are becoming tedious and tiresome to watch as the same 'storyline' is being played out night after night as they believe that this is entertaining. Imo, it is not.

great post

said it in a way that was ambiguous enough he could claim it as a joke, but was a barb to hit chloe's already low self-esteem. bear is a smart cookie, even if he's pretty horrible. And later on, in the live feed, she was all over him in the pool, leaning on him, sucking the tip of her thumb, simpering - as he yakked away to marnie and lewis also in the pool. he barely even ganced at chloe.

I wonder if the psychologists have the mental ages of Heavy D and Bear, because from where i'm standing, they both have issues in that area.

we obviously don't see everything, and earlier on at the start D referred to a conversation he'd had with her about her status relationship-wise - she led him to believe she was single and ready to mingle. what else she said we probably won't ever know, but her overtly flirty behaviour (she'd just got into the house so was trying to make a good impression on all the guys) which is meaningless in itself was likely misconstrued by him as a green light rather than her inane 'banter'. I feel he hasn't nearly as much experience with vapid media people as the likes of lewis and bear.
