I don't really know, my own take on Dexter and those scenario's are that he tires to avoid confrontations but they find him.

Like in the first week, he had an issue with Dan as to Michael but couldn't say it out loud,he chose to initially do it anonymously although admitting it later after it was fully known what had been said.
Of course we had the awkward explanation to Dan of why he did that which again showed up his desire to prefer to avoid confrontational situations.

I have watched him with the other confrontations too, he is there as it goes on usually but says nothing,takes no sides, waiting instead to go to whoever is alone afterwards then getting further info as to it that way.

That may well be a confidence thing, that he feels unable to take on anyone in heavy confrontational situations. I do think it has contributed to his lack of support from the other housemates however.

Being fair, that is not me criticising him for being like that, I see lots of people who avoid confrontation but do have a side they are on,however they only reveal that to the person they agree with rather than stand up for them at the time.

As for the money thing, well he obviously could have taken a much larger amount and it was his saying that he didn't see the £99,000 board that made his argument sound weak and suspect as to that issue.

It is though really hard to work out what Dexter is thinking or why he does things and maybe that is in fact the only sort of gameplan he has, nothing wrong with having a gameplan at all.
However whatever his may be,it hasn't worked that well for him with the other housemates.
It has though seen him survive so many evictions and so clearly has not too badly alienated the public who vote.

I have said from week 2, I take all he says with a pinch of salt.
Rightly or wrongly that may be how the other housemates see things as to him too which will more than likely reduce their trust,if any, in him.

Can he win with the housemates is the question, I'd say probably not but that shouldn't really bother him, he was in effect ostracised and got at from the early days for several weeks by the others, he owes them not a thing really.
He clearly has however had far more success with the public who vote though rather than the housemates and that does have to be to his credit to be fair.
