Challenge Relationships

One of the things that really intrigued me about this format were the couples. Here's some of my thoughts on some of the couples this season.

Abram and CM
aka It Used To Be Love At First Sight

These two are peas in a pod, dysfunction and the road less traveled. For CM, Abram was probably her first love, and to Abram, CM is probably his deepest and best connection. CM submits to Abram when in his presence, but also withdraws and withholds. CM probably has more suitors, and is still in school, and has yet to settle her life. This is why she offers her affection, and the desire to live with Abram when she's with him(and when drinking), but after stepping away, and being alone with her thoughts, allows reality and reason set in and allows her mind to change her heart. Abram doesn't fit other elements of her needs and wants(financial stability, same city of residence, same life goals). CM is battling between her feelings and her thinking when it comes to Abram.

Johnny and Camila
aka Pretty Insecure Girl Wants The Boy She Can't Have

Camila clearly is attracted to Johnny, but he wears the pants. Watching Camila get drunk and attempt to get Johnny's attention by flirting with other guys(jealousy), climbing into his bed(sex/sexual availability), and crying and throwing tantrums(vulnerability) reveal to me that she is a dysfunctional person - when drunk - and uses passive aggressive methods to get what she wants. Pretty yet insecure girl. Johnny in my opinion is interested in 2 things, a challenge fwb, and the prize money.

CT and Diem
aka Secretly Missing Their Love Hate Past

To me, the attraction here is just overwhelming, yet neither is ready to make the first move. I believe of all the couples, theirs was the most real and most memorable. Their past included the sweet bad boy meets goody girl and also showed elements of the love hate relationship. They ended on bad terms, but it appears that both have matured and would actually be ready and better at a second go. They are really ripe for the picking and ripe to enjoy each other. But who will make the first move? I believe the kick start may need to be a good old fashion argument.
