It was 100% mutual ... and of course he would've made enemies. He himself said he is supposed to be "bigger" one which means he also needed to have been the mature one and ended that quickly.

The hilarious part though is she gets voted out and Jason suddenly realizes he had other relationships he neglected and blames her? Really? That's not Charlie's fault, he made a choice to continue the silly codependency with her than to enjoy his experience. So yes, he can blame the tension he felt on her, but if he had seen it for what it was, he could've given himself permission to exit that situation quite easily.

Sadly, not sure he will be able to recover from this with the public. And he will be still be moaning about her once he gets out. Pathetic. What a waste of an experience

..great post, Maru.....I think yeah, that he used the whole Charlie thing to be seen as the 'victim' and now realises that rather than it being a positive and an 'advantage' to him, it's more been a negative...I still think that the whole thing doesn't quite sit right...he became angry that he and Charlie had been nominated because of their relationship and the effect on the house, rather than on their own merit and personality...and yet, now he's saying that them being in the house together has basically stifled him for 3 weeks...so which is it..?..if it had such a profound effect on his personality when she was in, why be so amazed that it would be a reason for nomination..?...also, it seems odd to me that Laura and Evelyn seemed so surprised when he said it..that they had lived that 'control' that Charlie apparently had over him for a large part of his time in there../that all of the housemates had..so how are they surprised at him giving that control as a reason now...they've lived it/they've breathed it also for 3 weeks../you couldn't not notice what he's describing in that confined environment...all very strange...
