Thanks Sherbabe. I didn't know that. I also didn't know about him living in the five year kiss-free zone. LOL! Maybe he blocked it all out?!?

This might not be the best place to ask this, but I was really confused about the ex-girlfriend's comments on the Aug. 30 show.

To me, it seemed like the brothers were saying that Eric cut it off, but the ex sounded like she thought they were still together?
And maybe was a little stalkerish about watching him on the show?

Can someone please clarify how they thought the EX viewed the relationship?
Surely I wasn't the only one confused by this.

TIA!

To me, Cheryl came across as ambivalent about the relationship. Yet now that Eric is a "reality star", she maybe regrets the break-up. Nothing real between them. According to Eric's brothers, the relationship IS over. Eric had given Cheryl one last try, but (paraphrased) "she wanted nothing more to do with him."

Yep, and I think she moved to California. I got the feeling that she is the type that's in the relationship when it's convenient for her.. like Eric is her warm snuggly puppy when she needs one. And now that Eric's on TV.. what could be more convenient? Especially since she tried to get on a reality/game show too.

She seems nice enough... but perhaps a little jaded.
I think she knows, the fact that she got teary-eyed shows that. She said something like "..until he tells me otherwise.." And I said, "Otherwise!"

I wonder if there's a website where they're selling the Booyah shirts, Jess' brother told her they were selling them for charity to help a sick girl.
Hmm... if I find one I'll let y'all know!

I think Cheryl is trying to get her 15 minutes of fame by clinging on to Eric being on BB

BOOYAH!!!

I found the shirts! The profits are going to help a girl get a lung transplant... my sister had a dbl lung trans. in '99, so I know what it's like to need to raise funds for that.

Anyway, here's the link:

It*s been a special treat to watch these two connect. Sometimes sweet, sometimes awkward, but always totally cute.

I believe that this is a REAL (as opposed to REALITY) relationship.

Though we may find Eric a bit loquacious, I think Jess may appreciate that he talks with her. (Not all men are willing communicators.)

ETA Eric's self-deprecating humor may also be a turn on. (Am I correct in observing that some people here just don't get self-referential humor and see it as arrogance?)

Ah that is very cool, I want to get a booyah t-shirt or two. Can anyone else confirm they have the Hughbanks family blessing? Not to be picky, but I don't want to buy the shirts if it is someone just taking advantage of the situation. I like the fact that there is a cause, but I just want to make sure it is legitimate.

ERic is always so good to jess - he always is catering to her and telling her if she needs anything to get him. I havent seen her do that at all even with his bad back.

I had a bf who "baby talked" to me and I HATED it, thought it was nowhere near masculine. I left him, and I regret it to this day.


I hope she realizes these men don't come along often.

Eric is catering to Jess because of his overwhelming guilt that he got her in this position. She made choices that he influenced because of AP, though he honestly thought it would protect her from the things she was unaware. Of course, he wasn't completely altruistic, he wanted to work with her, wanted her not to hate him, so he couldn't let her make decisions that would reveal himself.

I know that many people thought Eric was being a whiner yesterday, but, because it's never been a storyline on the show, I don't think we've really had a true clue of how difficult the AP has been on him. He talked about feeling helpless (and who wouldn't with no vote) about wanting to protect Jess and being unable to do so (what a challenge to his own sense of self) and trying to do the right thing for the right reasons and finding out that no matter what he chose, he was screwed.

We're never going to get to see the DRs when Eric questioned himself, his role in the game, his conflict between protecting D/D for America and wanting to protect himself, Jessica and, to a much lesser extent, Jameka because of his personal connection. America's Player is supposed to be nothing but a yes-man in the producers' eyes. Eric is struggling to work a system that he has no control over and that will have no hesitation to take out him or Jess if he goes against it.

If this was a movie, the plot would be the somewhat seedy family guy who is forced to work with the really bad guys because they threaten his family. But he has to keep his family in the dark, so they become suspicious and, in turn, make the situation worse. The interesting thing about that type of movie is that many times the guy, while not the nicest, often ends up sacrificing himself. Listening to Eric yesterday, I could really see him going that way.

I do know that if they evict Jess, Eric will be able to use the opportunity of the DE to take out one of D/D if he wins HOH, and there a 33% chance that he will succeed. Or else he will be walking out the door 45 minutes after her.

How do y'all like kissing Jessica? She isn't very enthusiastic about it imo. I wonder how she feels about being america's showmance?

I don't really understand Jessica's feelings on the situation with Eric. She runs hot and cold. They can be very adorable together one moment, and then she's completely standoffish the next. Often it seems like she shows her feelings towards him when he's not aware of it (like when she has cried over him, when she talks about him in the DR or to Julie, her asking Jameka to stick with him if she's evicted, etc). So is it the cameras? Is she just not that into him? Does she have trust issues? Is it a combination of factors? I think Eric is completely smitten, but is also completely confused about how she feels about him. When he questions her, he gets a positive response...but then she sends out contradictory body language or comments.

I think their relationship will have to be figured out outside of the house. Eric will be able to push harder for answers, and Jessica will hopefully be more open with him. I think he's invested a lot into their relationship, so I do wonder if maybe Jessica will break his heart a bit. I hope not, because IMO he has been very sweet, patient, and respectful towards her.

Onlyhuman, ITA about Eric needing to win HOH next to stay alive. At the very least, he needs to get veto.

Muse, I think it is a combination of factors.

First, I think from a personal standpoint, she is not all that comfortable with the vulnerability that comes from the "softer" feelings. Notice that she is much more at ease acting like a "guy", the joking, the teasing, the physical aggression.

Second, up until recently, they were just goofing and playing all the time. Even when Eric finally told her he "had feelings" for her, she made a joke out of it. It was only when he got embarrassed that she said "You know how I feel obviously". They continue to make jokes to the point where neither really knows what is real and what isn't.

Third, while she wants to let it go, you know that she is still worried that he's playing her in some way. Because of that, I have no idea how she will feel when the AP thing is revealed.

On Eric's end, he is suffering a HUGE amount of guilt over the AP thing and Jessica's nomination. He thought he was doing the right thing and now he doubts himself and he's communicated that to her in many ways. Because of this, she doubts him as well, though she doesn't quite know why. His worst fear is that she will get evicted, go to sequester and decide she hates him. That, I think, will break his heart a bit.

ohhhhh man, I screencapped last night and eric kept grabbing at Jess and trying to kiss her and stuff. It was embarrassing to watch and I dont understand how he cant grab a clue and figure it out.

She basically goes limp like a dead fish and I dont see any return. LOL

she out and out asked him to stop earlier in the washroom (NO NO!)

so I'm at a point right now wondering why she still is going thru the Showmance motions when she pretty well is done with it.

Hey Sun! Here's a topic we agree on!!!!

Jessica has been pretending to have romantic interested in Eric, but her body language tells a completely different story.

She is sooooo not into him that it is painful to watch.

I do think she puts a little more into the act during the day when others are around to "protect" her from Eric's overtures.
