He needs a bit of help with his trouble up there in the noggin

I cant help liking him hes made me laugh more than anyone else and I think he wants to do the right thing.He has got issues and he is volatile....but when he calms down he seems genuine.He is interesting, which is more than can be said for a lot of them.I also liked the way Josie dealt with him,taking no s**t.

Amythist I swear I am not being mean to you but how has he made you laugh? He is so dour and mean. I've seen nothing remotely funny or humourous about him

There is a lot of deep-seated anger and insecurity in that bloke, and he vents it mostly by picking on women.

He admitted the other day that every time he got further in the interviews he had to fly back over, so he did it more than once. I say that makes him pretty desperate for his 5 mins of fame.

Blimey. When I posted this thread I didn't expect a storm.

I can understand why not everyone is able to sympathize with him, because there are different types of hardships in life, and it isn't always easy to identify with them if you haven't experienced the exact same thing.

The friend of a friend of mine was left with the undesired responsibility of man of the household. Sole protector to his mother. It wasn't easy, and the pressure was often tough to deal with. To be forced to wear that mantle was very much a burden for him at times, and this friend of a friend often got angry. It was a very real anger that was difficult to control, because it was based off of deeply coiled emotions. This friend of a friend turned out pretty well in the end, and I would say that he is very good at controlling his emotions these days, but it took a while.

I'm not saying that every young man in that position would react the same way, but what I am saying is that I personally understand why JJ is the way he is. I also know that he can't help the way he reacts at times. Unpleasant at times, most definitely. Flawed. But human and, I feel, good intentioned.

The NOTW pics were taken before she entered the house by herself or a friend.She didn't sell them to the newspaper. She actually sold her story to The Star and in the photos that accompanied that exclusive she didn't get her tits out.

What a load of carp. If JJ'd been left fatherless during childhood, maybe, but he said his dad only died a couple of years ago.
My OH's dad died when OH was 14. The OH was left the eldest of three grieving kids, trying to support a grieving mum. He grew up to be kind, sensible and the least angry or confrontational person I know of.

I don't think I've seen him smile

Don't know about flawed, I know he needs floored...he's an arrogant idiot. It's nothing to to with his dad, he said yesterday he's like standoffish because he was really small at school. So he's been a knob since he was a teenager basically

Oh! He's funny
