TJ- The Star Of Her Own Melodrama!

Anyone watching the live streams this weekend would feel like they've been watching "The TJ and Bodie" soapie. Good christ! It's been exhausting!

It seems good 'ol Bodie is tiring of his 'relationship' with the psycho, and is trying desperately to disentangle himself and walk away with his gonads intact.

TJ is resisting this, and they've been going around in circles for two whole days. It appears TJ is loving playing the role of the poor, heartbroken, hard done by woman, and painting Bodie as a 'player' and someone who only wants to know her once the lights are out. She has sought the advice of just about everyone in the house, and has been chasing Bodie around for hours bringing up the same old thing time and again.

Here are some snippets from the live feeds. This was on Friday night.

the bedroom TJ and Bodie have an argument. Bodie tells her: “You need to understand some of what you say influences me as well.”

“So what?” TJ replies. Bodie says: “My family watches this my, friends watch this.”

”So what?” TJ tells him, adding: “I’m not going to change for anyone.”

“I think you’ve got to stop worrying about the outside and pay attention to where we are,” she says.

TJ heads to the bathroom where she talks to Emma. TJ says: “He wants me to just watch what I say because he’s worried about his family and friends on the outside.”

“I’m not out to impress his family and friends,” TJ continues: “I’m disappointed he’s so … I don’t know, shallow. Worrying how he looks.”
*******************
Seems like he was looking for an "out" to me. Clutching at straws for an excuse to get her to back off. It didn't work.

The next morning, after sleeping in seperate beds, it continues.
Bodie and TJ sit in the sun and talk about their fallout last night. "I don't want to spend the time I have in here fighting over something I think shouldn't even be a fight," Bodie says.

TJ says she is going to have a fun time regardless in the House as she is real and genuine.

Bodie says he's real and genuine, but tells TJ: "You have to realise what I do in here does affect my family."

"Okay," TJ says. "I'm just trying to figure out where the line is and what's okay and what's not."

Bodie gets to the crux of the issue: "I want to get out of here and have my grandparents look at me the same way. I care what my family thinks. There's a certain respect my family has for me and I want to maintain that."
Bodie is talking to Aleisha, Billy, Emma and Joel about his relationship with TJ, after their little disagreement last night. Bodie seems worried TJ is taking things too seriously and he doesn't know what to do.
************************
Ok, he now knows that she isn't going to give him up easily, and like a deer caught in the headlights, he's looking to run. Muahahaha!

And so it goes on-
Do you think I'm being a jerk?" Bodie asks Emma. Joel answers for her and tells him he is - although it's fairly obvious he's joking.

Emma is adamant that Bodie needs to just be honest with TJ and let her know he doesn't expect their relationship to go any further once they’re outside. Although Aleisha commented that TJ had already suggested she liked Bodie a lot and was thinking about their future together.
Pumped up from his talk with Emma, Bodie walks over to TJ who is doing the washing for a little chat.

He explains Emma and the others think he needs to be honest with her about their relationship and then just asks what her intentions are. TJ is a little perplexed by Bodie's talk, but tells him: "I don't plan anything."

"In regards to me what are your intentions?" Bodie keeps probing.

"I like you and I'm just going with it," she replies, "I don't think we're in a situation where we can govern where it's going to go. I don't have this big picture of anything."

Bodie gains a bit of confidence and tells TJ, "I like you as well. But it's one of those things. I just think we should just have fun while we're here…"

TJ thinks the conversation is taking a turn for the worst, so she instructs Bodie: "I think you should help me lift this bucket and not talk."

Bodie is taken aback, but TJ continues to ignore their relationship conversation and chats about the washing. She makes some excuse and goes to fill up her water bucket, leaving Bodie on his own and looking confused.

As she walks off, TJ mutters 'fuckhead' under her breath.
*******************
Later that night, they go at it again, after getting advice from all and sundry about their "relationshop"

TJ: "You and I have something together. Don't we?"

Bodie: "We do have something."

TJ: "Made up of two people? So why are you letting everyone else's opinion count?"

When Bodie shrugs and smiles, TJ gets angry: "Whatever. I'm over it. I'm an independent grown woman with brains. I've had a s*** day. I'm sick of other people."

Bodie giggles and whispers: "So are you breaking up with me?" He then falls about laughing.

TJ: "I'm trying to be serious here." Bodie: "I'm not in a serious mood."

TJ rants again: "I'm having a bad day. And I'm having a bad time with you. You need to live your own life, make your own decisions and stop listening to other people."
As she walks out the bathroom door she mutters: "This House is full of six year olds."

A few minutes later they're alone in the bedroom. TJ kisses Bodie prompting him to say: "I don't get you. One minute you're having a go at me, and the next you're kissing me."
TJ really isn't having a good night. She's had heavy conversations with Bodie throughout the evening. Now she rounds on Billy: "You have real insecurity issues Billy!"

She storms from the living room into the bedroom, leaving Billy shaking his head.

******************************
Now she's starting to ark up. It's funny, but seriously, she is so enjoying all the attention and the drama. Bodie is caught up in the TJ show, and there is literally no way out.
That night they're at it again. This time we get more of an insight into the person TJ is within relationships.

TJ "So where do you fit in?"
Bodie:"What? Mmm, well maybe you go out with guys that are not really focused and confuse you."
TJ "My boyfriends took everything, used me and took me for granted."
Bodie: "Do you think I am like that?"
TJ: "No."
When she changes :"I am still working on the being independent thing, not on the outside, in here."
*************************
This gives the clearest picture yet of why she is clinging so desperately to Bodie. She feels intimidated by the other girls, and insecure about her place in the house. Being a part of Bodies 'cool group' by being his in house 'girlfriend' gives her a bit of weight amongst the others. She aint gonna let that slip without a fight.

02:27
TJ says she can see through his bullshit, and he is not going to manipulate her and mess with her mind. Bodie says he is honestly not trying to do that. He is just trying to help.
TJ starts kissing him, says she gets him, they are on the same level, really.
He says that he doesn't think they are on the same level, he doesn't think she understands him, he doesn't think they know each other. He doesn't think they should be kissing. He isn't ready for it. She makes him feel uncomfortable.
TJ: "No, you make yourself feel uncomfortable."
*************
She's doing the whole "Go away, come back" thing here. One minute she's attacking him, next she's trying to kiss him and smooth things over again. The woman is unstable to say the least.

Emma and Bodie
They laugh more about TJ as the chick from hell, like in fatal attraction, and how things could get better but not if she keeps on like that.

***************************
The next morning. It's game on again. Does this chick never tire of talking about herself???

says she spoke to Rebecca and she made her understand a lot of things, she thinks Bodie should talk to her. Bodie says I have talked to her I've talked about ignoring her, TJ says it's not about that, she knows how I'm feeling. You are so all about you.

Bodie said I saw you sitting up and you looked chilled so I thought you may be better this morning but your not, it's the same stuff.

Bodie:Piss off I've had enough, I'm sick of this I have never been anything but nice to you TJ.

TK: talk to someone neutral (meaning Rebecca) and she will be able to explain and if you cared about me at all it would be nice if you spoke to her. Your not the only one who can be stubborn.

Bodie: I don't care anymore

TJ: I don't deserve this from you and walks off
*****************
But wait, there's more. she's not finished yet. Can she not take a hint??

TJ says: "I am a person with feelings, not something you can pick up and put down."

"You're not realising the effect you're having on people," she adds. Bodie agrees, silently. "Maybe you're just not ready for someone to care about you," TJ says.

TJ kisses him on the cheek and ruffles his hair. Bodie appears to tell TJ she doesn't have to sleep in her bed, but TJ says she will until he sorts himself out.

"You're just so serious," Bodies says, but TJ disagrees: "No, I'm just standing up for myself. You just don't get it."

Bodie lies back down in his bed. TJ continues to whisper while Bodie remains silent. Bodie becomes less calm: "Get off my bed. I don't want to talk to you. You give me the shits."

"Nobody needs to be spoken to like that," TJ says, but Bodie breaks in: "I've been nothing but nice to you." TJ says: "I didn't say you weren't nice…"

The conversation continues to go around in circles, ending with TJ whispering: "I don't need this from you," on the way back to her own bed.

The two climb under the covers of their own beds. Bodie tosses, turns and lies in bed with eyes wide open.


**********************
Can we all see a pattern happing here??

Sunday morning, and nothing has been resolved. TJ and Bodie are once more embroiled in their melodrama.

In the bathroom, TJ continues talking about her Bodie situation with Jamie and Rebecca. Jamie listens intently and Rebecca offers TJ advice. Rebecca suggests Bodie and TJ just communicate differently. TJ agrees: "I just don't know where I stand with him right now."

******************
What? Is she for real??? I don't think he can make it any more clearer! He wants the cuddles and kisses and under the doona action at night, but during the day he doesn't want to follow her aound like a love sick puppy. He wants to hang with the boys, have fun, and a few laughs. TJ on the other hand wants some kind of warped "commitment" she wants to be showered in attention 24/7, she wants romance, she wants deep and meaningfuls and hearts and flowers!

For Gods sake the guy has the brain capacity of a gnat and maturity of a 12 year old! It aint gonna happen TJ. GET OVER IT.

Either take it for what it is, bit of fun, something to ease the boredom in the house, and roll with that. Or cut off all contact with Bodie and get the fuck over it!!!!

I'm really hoping Bodie goes tonight. I don't think I could stand another day of the Big Brother version of "The Boring And The Pyschotic".

I've been in TJ's position. That being said, it was in a 7 year relationship, not a 2 week relationship. And many things had me dangling.

I would say that she has absolutely no pride. There's no way I would let this happen to me KNOWING that a whole country was watching. Shit, I didn't even tell my friends the truth when I was in the middle of my psychosis with the ex.

She's good fun, but at her expense. She really needs to go. She'll regret this severely at some stage.

I really don't want to do this to cross-promote my blog, but my latest entry would be of good interest to BB fans.

I'm surprised nobody seems to have spotted this before me, but I've seen a crazy resemblance between 4 of our housemates and legitimately famous people. Check out my blog for that.

Steph - you know me and I really don't want to cross the line. But the pics speak for themselves. You can check the blog out before you decide to put this part in. I really think it's amazing.

Steph said...

Sweets, I love your blog and I'll sure as hell check your post out. There should be more bb blogs in the sphere.

I think TJ does have some pride, but at the same time, her NEED for a man over rides that until he crosses the line and embarrasses her the way Thomas did.

Her and Bodie are a trainwreck. Can't wait to see what the week brings.

M said...

I can't believe he's still in the house.

If he truly gave a shit what his grandparents thought then he'd be less of a 'tard. Fuck the relationship I'd have disowned him with the first chant he started if I were related!

The thing about TJ that drives me nuts is that she has no self respect. I like that she's psychotic - it's hilarious from an entertainment angle. I think that she says what she thinks and that is good BUT she's called Bodie on his idiotic behaviour towards her and YET she keeps going back. This trait in women is one I can't STAND! Why go back to dickheads who treat you like shit especially when you *know* they will keep treating you like shit?! Ugh. He told her that she's just a bit of nothing to him and still she does the old 'I'm not talking to you...oh okay let's cuddle' thing. She should tell him where to go and get her doona back.

Bodie is the one playing games. He says one thing then does another. Poor Tj doesn't know whether she's coming or going with him.

LaLa said...

Fuck. After reading the OS and watching the show tonight I am well and truly confused.

How uncomfortable was that scene where he had gone to bed and she was like pulling his bandanna up, whispering "Hi" and he was saying he just wanted to cuddle. It was car crash tele. I wanted to throw the remote at the screen.

Meanwhile... somewhere in house Thomas is breathing a little easier. He has put the breadknife back in the kitchen

Steph said...

M, agreed. he's just trying to worm his way out of it, BUT, he still wants the doona action at night.
Dammit! We need uncut back!

TJ is just pathetic. She'd rather have the little scraps that he feeds her than be alone.

Anon, You think? I guess he is as guilty, he does say one thing, but then his actions say another.

Lala, Do you believe last night TJ siad to Thomas "I really need to talk to you" about the whole Bodie thing, and Thomas was all "Of course, come find me when you're ready I'm always here for you".
Whaaaaaaat?

LOLZZ, he's still afeared for his life I reckon.

Tempest said...

Mwahahahaha!

I love the crazy chick...

But I think it is all part of devloping an annoying character like Nikki from BBUK. She was nutso as well but fans loved her.

Steph said...

Tempest, You could be on to something there. Maybe she IS playing us all for saps.
