It's a showmance. No different to an on screen movie couple.

I'm really sick of C-3PO & Yoda's showmance.
The sooner they get off my screen the better. They would sell every bit of dignity they have/had for money. |

There you go...
"Fake it 'til you make it" (also called "act as if") is a common catchphrase that means to imitate confidence so that as the confidence produces success, it will generate real confidence. The purpose is to avoid getting stuck in a self-fulfilling prophecy related to one's fear of not being confident..., e.g., by thinking, "I can't ask that girl out because she would sense my lack of confidence." The article How You Too Can Be an Optimist in Prevention points out, "In research at Wake Forest University, for example, scientists asked a group of 50 students to act like extroverts for 15 minutes in a group discussion, even if they didn’t feel like it. The more assertive and energetic the students acted, the happier they were."[1] The phrase is similar to Aristotle's notion that acting virtuous will make one virtuous. The phrase was introduced into modern language in the late twentieth century. |

Its quite frightening how such a simple phrase, by someone who claims to know about America can be so misconstrued/understood. Frightening. Fake it to make it - means fake being confident everyone knows that. sheesh |

Well, the "showmance" seems real and anyway it's got sweet Fracis Adams to do with us who has a relationship with who. Is someone putting a gun to your head to your head to make you watch BB or BBBOTS, which btw neither are even on anymore because they panel changes when someone new is evicted. ![]() ![]() |

To paraphrase Samuel Johnson, it's good they found each other, it's saved two other people from being unhappy.
