He didn't. The friends with benefits started after they had kissed, she'd decided she fancied Tom, told Marcus she kissed Siavash and decided they should just be friends. The thing Siavash is most gutted about (I think) is the fact that he would not have gone there if he'd known. He has upset a girlfriend on the outside and fucked up his friendship with Marcus for nothing now.

I do agree with D'wards that Bea needs to let it go now Noirin and Isaac have left.

I didn't mean him in particular, I mean't why would any girl think that any boy would think that "friends with benefits" is such a great idea?

As long as it's a mutual thing it's fine but it's no good if there's feelings involved. It is a great idea if you fancy each other but don't want anything else.

has he? i thought people were saying he didn't really have a girlfriend.

Yes, she's been in Heat and Davina said on BBBM the other night that she has deleted all reference to him from her Facebook. I think they'd not been seeing each other that long. That's the main thing he did wrong really, lying about the girlfriend thing. Well, that and falling for that hard-faced bitch.

 

[foo]

lol ok. cheers.

 

[Looby]

lol ok. cheers.

I feel quite embarrassed that my info is coming from Heat.

So its quite common and she didn't just make it up? When the benefits part is over both parties just smile and then stick to the friends bit quite happily?

I can't say I have ever met anyone who would be happy with a relationship that involved friendship + snogs and that's all. How long do such relationships last for?

Does anyone know a couple in a long-term "friends with benefits" relationship?

Sorry to harp on, but I must clarify this new knowledge!

I think that too.

Friends with benefits is generally the same as fuck buddies tbh. Just depends what you both decide are the 'benefits'.

Ah right, so on the outside she may have fucked him then dumped him for the ex, I see.

Who knows, miss minnie

i had a two year one - it suited us both and there was no drama when it ended.

probably not for this thread though. i'll get lynched by the Good Woman of this Board.

(he wasn't married)

 

[Strumpet]

I had one once. Didn't last ages, decided I didn't want that anymore but was cool for a short while.
It works if you both want the same thing from it and you're both on the same page eh.

 

[foo]

..and if you're both single.

The point is she wasn't clear about this. If she'd said that's all it would be from the beginning Siavash wouldn't have bothered because he had too much at stake. He had genuinely fallen for her. She was just bored and wanted the attention.

Also, these things work on the outside but not in the BB house.

I had a fuck buddy for about 18 months. He lived 2 hours away so didn't see each other that much and it was great. I used to see him once a month or so, we chatted on the phone a lot and were free to do what we wanted. I was at college/uni and didn't really want a relationship. We both said that if either of us got into a relationship it would finish and that's what happened, I started seeing a bloke at uni. He came to see me a couple of times in Brighton but then it tailed off.

 

[London_Calling]

I get a text each year at the time an old friend thinks this is worth watching from blokey world.

What a proper femme fatale that Irish bird is; men just can't see it, nature is an amazing thing . . . I've seen them at the other end as well though, when the power fades and they couldn't give up the power and 'settle down'.

On my short viewings, all the men seem pathetic and utterly out of their depth. I mean all of them . . .

 

[Strumpet]

..and if you're both single.

Course. Goes without saying.

 

[Kizmet]

Right.. caught up with what you is all talking about now...

The root of Noirin's attraction isn't that complicated, is it? Attention... that's what all the guys wanted. And that's what she gave them. Her problem is that she has no sense of responsibility for her actions. Either the men just keep forgiving her no matter what.. or another one will be along shortly to pick up the pieces for her. She can't learn cos no-one ever teaches her.

Apart from maybe Isaac. He was pretty cool, really. Smart, funny and pretty perceptive for a guy with a face like a melted action man.

Bea was very clever in getting herself noticed in amongst the drama of the love quadrangle. I reckon I was spot on with my first assessment of her as a machiavellian genius in birkenstocks. She's cool.

The afghan hound and the bloke who read one too many comics will eventually kiss and make up. One thing bb knows is that liberal amounts of alcohol wash away a lot of tears.

Not seen enough of the bear in a tutu or the one made just out of legs. There's more to come from those two, I'll warrant.

And on the subject of 'friends with benefits' - well, that's just a new name for sn old thing, I reckon.

 

[D'wards]

Also why is no one criticising Siavash for practically cheating on his girlfriend outside? Is it cos he's cool and good looking and a throughly nice guy in all other ways?

I hope Bea does not end up with him - she doesn't deserve him!

 

[AKA pseudonym]

im still of the feeling that there is gonna be more action in this thread than bb presently..
other than charlie n rod face offs, theres not much unpredictability in the house unless the producers pull their fingers out...

i hope im wrong btw

My opinion...
What he did was wrong definately. Thing is, it was obvious that he was serious about the situation. He was/is genuine. Real. It wasn't just some 'entertainment' for him. He def. seemed to have thought long and hard about it all. Thought there was something worth sacrificing things for. You could see and still see him agonising over everything. The guy is in bits. He was played and it's awful to see.....imho.

Siavash isn't cool. no-one who has a personal stylist can ever be considered cool. He was detached after the tall, skinny, black gay dude went. Prior to that he was a bit of a prick... and his behaviour to Noirin when she was trying to talk was far from cool. Anyone who says 'all good' that many times is secretly planning genocide, Imho.

Yep, really well put.

 

[London_Calling]

About this Siavash character, has his girlfriend been in the 'papers much, how long had he been seeing her for and were they living together?

I might be a bit more cynical than you but I see it very differently. I don't think it's likely that he liked Noirin more than his girlfriend of at least a few months. I reckon it's much simpler than that...

He never even touched a girl as pretty as noirin in his life before.. let alone kissed one. Most girls are put off by a guy who would wear out the bathroom mirror.

When Noirin eventually got bored enough to turn to him.. he thought he'd won the booty lottery... (the bottery?) and dropped his bird like last season's diamante studded thong.

Nothing to feel sorry for, I reckon. Calculated gamble that failed.

 

[London_Calling]

Nah, there's no way in a million years he was in control of anything in that situation: Hung, drawn and humiliated.

Tbf, if he only lost a girlfriend, he got off lightly. She could, and would, sting you for an awful lot more.

Does anyone believe this shit about them being a couple, it's a business partnership init.

 

[paulhackett]

I don't see much difference between Bea's focus on Halfwit and the way she subsequently spoke about him and Noirin's focus on Siavash, but Noirin could have at the very least spoken to Siavash sooner once Isaac arrived. I'm not surprised Bea has been sacked from every job she has had..

It's a pity a series which had enough natural catalysts was interrupted by Isaac. Till then it was a bit old school, and whilst obv. they're all narcissitic twats, they weren't of the screechy twins or cookie monster variety and were showing that shove any group of people in a room for 10 weeks and something will happen..

Marcus and Lisa are the worst as they still delusional in their 30s, when most folk realise what they actually are. Anyway as Craig used to sing whilst wanking in front of the mirrors in series 1 - it's only a game show..

 

[D'wards]

Noirin just has something that attracts men and repels women (Angel aside)- she looked super hot on BBLB.

There's Something About Noirin

oh for god's sake

like what? the family diamonds? his tackle? his hair scrunchies?

Siavash is a grown (very sexy and sensual man) but he's an adult, in his twenties, like Noirin. and yes, she played him, but she didn't bloody rape him.

he had a girlfriend, she was single - so who was most immoral?

i don't give a toss tbh, and think this BB has been one of the lamest on record. it's always good to yell and stomp about BB - it's a laugh....
but i find the ultra personal way some people (mainly women) are spitting fury about Noirin like she's the Wife of Bath/evil Eve tempting poor innocent Adam makes me feel they need to get a flippin grip.

i don't necessarily mean on here..it's bloody everywhere, and it's mad.

 

[Strumpet]

He is VERY fanciable. Ask a lot the women on this thread for a start!
I think it's because it quickly became apparent to me and others that Siavash wasn't as cocky or vain as he pretended to be to get on BB. He seems like a normal, decent guy. Funny and sweet. Kind and considerate. Great (mostly) dress sense

dropped his bird like last season's diamante studded thong.

Have you watched it every evening, hun?? Did you not see his face?! One minute he was happy with Noirin and the blossoming (or so he thought) relationship the next he was oozing guilt and troubles about what he & she were doing. What he did was wrong but...I dunno....at least he feels bad for it. She doesn't seem to give a shit.

Oh my god no, Siavash is the love guru. I bet he's had loads of gorgeous women. He's had the effect on most of girls I know that Noirin has had on the blokes in the house.
