He shouldn’t have had to say anything in the first place. His position alone screamed he didn’t want to do anything besides sleeping. And normally when you speak to someone in the middle of the night and they don’t respond, you assume they’re sleeping and leave them alone. You don’t expect them to tug on your body trying to wake you up because that’s rude and in her case selfish asf.
If she knew he wasn’t sleeping then why did she feel the need to tug on him and poke at him. Talking to him would’ve gotten the point across, there was no need to touch so there must have been some doubt that he was actually awake. And if she knew he wasn’t sleeping then she was trying to annoy him into a response knowing he didn’t wanna talk.
But it’s not an unusual thing for the islanders to do. After a disagreement or someone is feeling a type of way and it’s time for bed, they always do the same thing, which is turn away from their partners and go to sleep. And all season no one has had a problem with someone doing that because you can obviously tell they aren’t in the mood to be touchy with them. Why is it that when he does it then it’s a problem?
Also, regardless of it he said “I wanna sleep” in the beginning or after 5 minutes, she clearly was going to have a problem with his answer which is fucked up. He has a right to turn her down and if the roles were reversed this wouldn’t have even been a discussion. He definitely had some moments in this episode where he’s clearly the problem but I don’t think that moment was one of them.
he does have that right i didn’t say he was wrong in that all i’ve been saying is he shouldn’t have ignored her and the post is referring to her counting down which she was doing because he was ignoring her it feels like you’re trying to argue when i’m agreeing with everything you’re saying
Because it seems like you’re trying to excuse what she did when that’s not the way you speak to your partner at all, regardless of if you’re being ignored. I would never do a count down for my partner if they did what Chris did, I’d just leave them alone and talk about it in the morning because they clearly don’t want to speak or do anything. There are some things that you don’t have to spell out to someone and this was one of them.
