At Uni,I spent a lot of time with people I had never met before who after a short time, became what I would call friends and they will likely remain friends for the rest of my life now hopefully too.

Being stuck in a house with people, for weeks on end, as is the case with the BB house, day and night for 24 hours must speed that process up, either as to getting close or in a negative way too.

I agree. Austin felt this way too. James on the other hand, seems to have no such natural human instincts and only says and acts in ways that he feels will endear him to the public and put him on the moral highground.

I felt for Austin when James told him that there was no closeness, not really. I imagine that would be very hurtful to someone who feels a strong friendship bond. Like a slap in the face.
