They've been my favorite couple this season, although that's not saying much. But I was pretty annoyed with Tom's persistence on the issue. She obviously didn't want to consider it, so let it go. It doesn't mean she doesn't care about his opinion or doesn't listen to him. She just doesn't want to do it.

the guys a moron. i would have broken up with him then and there.

I dated someone who was a proponent of alternative medicine, but he would never push it on anyone if they didn't want to do it. He might suggest it, but he would let people make their own decisions on what was best for them.

The fact that Tom wouldn't let it go really bugged me. It's her body and she knows what's best for her. Once she said no, he should have accepted it.

I liked him up to that point. When he started arguing with her about it and getting defensive, my opinion of him starting going down.

I think Tom is a lot less open-minded than he wants people to think. He wants someone to adapt to his lifestyle and that's it but doesn't seem willing to reciprocate.

I suspect (knowing how reality TV works) that production probably prompted Tom to push the issue. They want more conflict between them going into the decision episode. They've been getting along too well.

Like I said, I'm suspecting that the production asked Tom to be persistent about the alternative medicine thing...

I haven't watched the entire episode yet, but to me he is EXTREMELY good-looking, thank you very much. I also like his modest-yet-self-assured confidence and just the way he walks down the street so casually.. this dude is very mature for his age, no doubt about that.

I kind of see your point now. Lilly went to MEDICAL SCHOOL in her home country; what does Tom have any medical knowledge of? The inner workings of a yacht?! And I'm really sick of hearing him say how open-minded he is- he may be a free spirit, but he's awfully stubborn and seems to want to control nearly every situation regarding Lilly.

He' still no Nick or even Derelict... but he needs to learn to stay quiet on issues he knows absolutely NOTHING about, especially when it's somebody else's health on the line.

Since he makes himself out to be unmaterialistic (cheap) maybe he just didn't want her to rack up hospital and doctor bills!! An acupuncturist would cost much less!!!

Alternative medicine might be an option for a disease but a torn ligament that an MRI clearly shows? What a moron

reply

I agree, what would she do, drink sap from a tree or grind up starfish and drink it. Alternative medicine will not fix a tear
