I do agree that poor Khaled’s experience in the house, must be feeling heavy and intense, and I feel a lot of the fun must have been eliminated for him. I can only imagine how awkward and uncomfortable that closed-off environment must be for him, as there is no way of escape - there is no respite for him.

I agree with you about how Ali is coming across, but I’m keeping in mind the fact that she has Autistic traits, which would suggest that her perception, motives and behaviours are being led by a misinterpretation of Khaled, rather than by vindictiveness.

I certainly don’t like the impact of her behaviour on Khaled but I do, at this moment in time, think her actions are due to her inability to read social cues, which is a prevalent trait in those on the Spectrum. Until I have seen enough evidence, I’m choosing to withhold judgement, as by not doing so, I’d feel as if I was guilty of the same behaviour I’m uncomfortable seeing in her.

It will all unfold with the passage of time……..
