Why do some people confuse cockiness with confidence? I guess it depends on whether you like the person in question.

I don't think he is cocky at all. I think he is finding some confidence that he didn't have a couple of weeks ago, which is hardly surprising since he has been up for eviction every week.

I also wouldn't say support for Freddy has dropped either.

I agree but as usual he gets slated for being odd and "playing the victim" and now hes getting confident, hes knocked for that. Shake Head

It takes a very strong minded person to withstand the treatment meted out to Freddie in the past four weeks. A lesser person would have walked out. It cannot have been easy for him to have felt marginalised and isolated from the group, whilst being mocked and laughed at for his posh voice and his unique way of expressing himself. It shows that Freddie is a strong lad, filled with great self-belief. His love of life is infectious and he refuses to be negative or sullen or unhappy. Many attempts have been made to hurt and destroy Freddie, but he has bounced back every time.

What other people may interpret as being cocky and confident in Freddie now, I see it as self-belief writ large and he is now unafraid to express his opinions because he is one of the few in the house who understands how the GBP tick. He senses that he is liked, and why, and he is right.

Well said Twee Surgeon. To see the way those 3, Charlie, Sophie and Kris have shown fear this week at the thought of facing the public vote fills me with contempt that they could so carelessly have handed this out to Freddie every week and even laughed about it.

If it was Siavash vs Halfwit, would be people say it was confidence if he said he was sure to stay?

Because that is the where I see this heading and that is my point in topic.

Yes, NOW he does have the right to cocky/confident

But later on, once the baddies are out and the evictions are much closer, should he have the same attitude it won't be seen the same way it is now and will work against him imo

Hmm, I find it interesting he says he is being more himself every week as support seems to be dropping for him every week, do people like him being himself? Or do we perfer him being the victim?

I think, while he has the right to be cocky at the moment, it will cause his eviction later on in the series


I think he'll unravel too.

I think Freddie will adapt swg. He is a clever savvy lad and he will be wise enough not to get too big for his boots. He felt confident enough to say it to Siavash because S is not up this week. He will tone his responses accordingly in the weeks to come imo. At least, I hope so.
