Thanks mercurymay! You gotta be kidding me. What? Rob is the uber party planner but he can't tie on his own freakin' robe? I'm actually shocked they made the comparison with the flashback. I guess that means there really is a possibility of that in Olli's mind. I've always wondered why Olli referred to Rob's lunging at him as "that kiss" to Christian instead of telling him what actually happened. I really can't tell if it's just Olli not wanting to reveal how ridiculously vulnerable he is or if it's wishful thinking on his part. Ridiculous? Yes. Superfluous? Yeah. What ever gets you through the night, Olli. Really, I wish Olli would've flashed back to Christian telling him that Rob wanted him. But then Olli knows that. And he still invited him into their home and still let him cook for him and gave him his silly little apron instead of demanding that he put some fucking clothes on and then left him there bare-assed to run after Andi... Christ, Olli. "How far are you prepared to go with that? And Gosh! Christian... why are you being so supportive of Olli's dream of NL by convincing your brother not to sell? Don't you know it's so OOC. Otherwise: Rob looked hotter today. ;D Could just be that t-kat's new avi inured me to it over the weekend. (still, the pits were nice)... wait, since he's wearing Olli's clothes... that means he went in the bedroom... in their bedroom...

or to the washer and dryer in the bathroom, BUT NOT THEIR BEDROOM!!! THE PLACE WHERE THEY FIRST MADE LOVE AND WHERE CHRISTIAN ADMITTED HE HAD FALLEN IN LOVE WITH OLIVER!!!!!
Olli better hope that Christian doesn't find out because that will be the deal breaker!!!! It would be for me,
its bad enough that the hairy ape was cooking in THEIR kitchen but he did a friggen STRIP-TEASE in THEIR kitchen! Olli better say A MILLION PRAYERS that Christian NEVER finds out cause if he does.....I am afraid Christian will call it quits:(

Well, if Andi has a Rebecca moment... Shouldn't be such a tragedy, Ropp understands Olli like Christian never did

i tell you what would be a deal breaker for me... the man i love and supported endlessly, and forgave for two kisses (instigated by him) with other women, not trusting me to the extent where he comes in of an evening and the bad feeling is so... bad that loses his rag with me (and goes back to not talking to me) because i cooked some food he didn't like i mean what the hell?!? what happened to the christian who adored olli, all of him - the bad bits as well. i swear the last major argument plot point was chribecca kiss - so why does christian get to be a pissy bitch?!? just tell olli you called gregor!! before he feels the need to find his own solution - which you will probably, undoubtedly flip out at him for if it dares to involve rob. olli has nowhere else to go. why can't anyone see that he's not doing anything wrong?! he pushed rob off him and felt so guilty about it, he was starting to make plans to finish up with NLs for a chrolli break to canada when christian was *busy* with rebecca. and he didn't even consider going there in the kitchen with rob, despite the fact the spoilers said he would be led into temptation. all that was on his mind was christian. VL writers haven't given him another solution with the party planning. he has to work with rob. that wouldnt be a problem cept for christian's crazy jealousy. seriously, in that episode before the boxing match when olli went out on the town with steve; and christian did CrazyEyes at them both, his reaction scared me - and i wondered when this was gonna come up again. but he's crazyeyeing all over the place when rob's around. why can't he just TELL olli how he's thinking/feeling/hurting?!?!!? why the pretense?!?! just be honest, less proud - and do everyone a massive favour and deal with your issues.

yeah but olli stilled ALLOWED The hairy ape to cook WHEN HE KNOWS THAT ROB WANTS HIM AND IN HIS AND CHRISTIANS HOME! I think that was wrong of Olli, but Christian could of sucked it up and had dinner with Olli for once, so they are both in the wrong here

Christian realised Ropp had been there and Olli once again did not tell him. But he should have told Olli the news and then done whatever he wanted. He comes across a bit childish. But then he was pushed like this quite a while now.

okay... for comparisons sake; do you honestly think that when chrolli find out about rebecca's feelings, if they find out about them, and olli said to christian "don't go near her ever again - because she wants you and i'm jealous with no apparent reason to be (we'd have to forget that the chribecca kiss actually happened) - just don't GO NEAR HER. AND DON'T LET HER IN THE FLAT!!" that christian would take kindly to be told what to do?! he'd carry on seeing rebecca if he wanted to. and that's without the added incentive that rebecca's involvement in their life provides an economical advantage. he wouldn't take that off olli. he forgave rebecca (for shoplifting) and olli had to go along with it. whether or not he wanted to. and now olli has to bend to christian's demands again. drop rob, or drop me. that's the poor choice olli is being forced into making. also - i would bet that olli - if he did find out about rebecca's feelings - wouldn't impose those kind of conditions on his boyfriend *out of jealousy* - he just doesn't have it in him.

But then he was pushed like this quite a while now. that's EXACTLY what's annoying me. why the pretense!?! he needs to tell olli how he feels so he can be reassured. instead of going crazy, on his own in that mad head of his. what, is olli supposed to mind read now?! and that's aside from the fact i think his worries and demands are crazy - where does it stop?! is he gonna vet people in and out of olli's life and the flat?!

okay Christian was childish...a trait he has we are all agreed.....however to repeat what I said earlier....Olli is wrong! To let |Rob away with that "display" :::still shudders at the thought::: then act as if it was no "biggie" (EVERY pun intended) that is just wrong. He really needs to set some boundaries with Rob

rebecca KISSED christian - and he hasn't for one second questioned why she did it, or even told her it was wrong because he has a boyfriend, he just vaguely blathered about david getting the wrong idea, and from the smile on becky's face after, it probably wasn't david he should be most worried about. if my best friend kissed me out of the blue - i would want to know WHY they did it - for a start. but christian honestly doesn't seem to care and still defends her and hangs around with her like she's the best thing since sliced bread. what, is his head full of rocks?!? olli keeps telling rob he doesn't want anything, and rob shouldn't come onto him - but he needs to keep him onside FOR HIS CAREER (i don't see what's stopping christian asking rebecca "uhm, say becks? what was that lunging-in-the-general-direction-of-my-mouth-with-your-tongue thing all about?!?"). i don't see what more he could do!!! castrate the poor bugger?!? what do people want when they chant 'boundariesboundariesboundaries' in olli's general direction?!?! he has TOLD rob he's a no go - and he's TOLD christian he's TOLD rob. should he be strapping himself into a chastity belt and handing christian the key, just so christian can trust him and feel secure again?!?!? seriously people!!!!

soapfan...no chastity belt is needed....however I do think Olli needs to bloomin' well tell Rob YET AGAIN that he is not interested, but this time do it without smiling and trying to pretend it's all okay....it is NOT okay that the guy keeps coming on to him even though he has told him no....... but it maks it helluva exciting to watch! what will Rob do next.....turn up in Ollis bed with a rose sticking out his arse?

One would think that by now Olli knew he lives in a soap and it would be much better if he came clean - yes you were right, he had hit on me, naked, but I did not touch the hairy arsehole. This way Andi may tell something or even Ropp may try to return the clothes to Christian, oops, Olli I did not know Christian would be at home

In spite of how much I love them as a couple right now I would love to see Christian breaking up with Oliver. Honestly. Having that creepy guy naked in your kitchen? the same that told your bf -in front of you- that he smelled like a horse? it has to be all about you and your dream... I remember when Christian had to give up his career for being sick and you told him to become a pool boy... *snort* and chrollifan211, 'hairy ape' OMG that was hilarious, I just love you now xD

I have to join the conversation at this point... I agree with you soapfan, I think Olli has set the boundaries with Rob. It's not easy and I think Olli hasn't done anything wrong. We are just so used to Olli who is almost like too good to be true. In his relationship with Christian Olli has been so supportive that sometimes it isn't even believable. Maybe Olli should feel more empathy for Christian but I think that wouldn't seem very real... Christian is just too proud to admit that he's scared of losing Olli. He's passive-aggressive because he's so confused. But I do feel bad for him. I think he has't got any kind of experiences of this kind of situation, the uncertainty.

If you all think about it, Rob is truly the victim in this episode. He spent time and effort to go out and buy food, to prepare a nice meal for himself and Olli, and Olli kept ignoring him so that he was forced to take drastic measures like spiling something on himself. And, THEN, to do a striptease dance, only to have the audience look away, imagining something else, and finally, running OUT on you! Then, to wait for your audience's return, your shopping bag and sacrificed clothes in hand, only to hear the words, "Get out now!" That's just sad.

i agree fillelina that christian is at the disadvantage of never having been in this position before. i don't think he ever cared so much about preserving a relationship. and that confuddles him because even though he's oh so pretty, christian isn't always the brightest of sparks when it comes to emotional intelligence. his reasoning seems to be - i LOVE this person more than life itself. they are making me unhappy. solution? push them further and further away to avoid the risk of confrontation and probable heartbreak. result? definite heartbreak. he's suspending emotion to try and swerve conflict - and that NEVER works. they need to MOVE PAST this little bump in the road. not come to a total standstill - just in case*sigh* but also sio, the thing with rob - that i keep repeating till i'm sure everyone is sick of the sight of my posts cropping up - is olli needs him to further his career. the writers have failed to explain this sufficiently but i have no choice but to believe them. not even christian questions it, he's never said to olli "but you don't NEED rob to make NLs successful, you're enough on your own baby" he just shits on ALL olli's plans that remotely involve rob. olli is trying to keep in rob's favour - and olli's downfall is that when he tries to please people, he really tries to please people. so he's the kind of guy who would brush you off with a smile. a 'thanks but no thanks' instead of a 'get the fuck away from me, you dirty perve'. maybe you're right, he needs to find a balance. but it's not something you can blame the entire Chrolli Crisis on. and christian loves him for precisely that quality. that complete sweetness. christian has all the cards as far as a real resolution goes. olli can do no more. well he could - but if he did, i wouldn't be interested in watching them anymore. it would be like little Mo going back to nasty wife beating trevor in easties and saying "know what babe? you were right! i am a daft cow!" - if olli sacrifices any more of himself for christian, there won't be anything left. he needs to strike out and be his own person. and christian has to learn to accept that. or walk away and find himself a poodle who shits on command (enter miss von lahnstein).

^ I do think Olli can (and should) do more, and it will not make him a victim still.
It's called honesty. If he is that fearful of Christian's jealousy, he shouldn't be with him (that would be the victim mentality you talk about). If he is frustrated with Christian's jealousy, but knows he did nothing wrong, he should let honesty dictate his actions, come hell or high water, from Christian and his jealousy.
Only when we tread to the edges of limits can we say we truly understand what those limits (and their consequences) are.
Olli bald-faced lying (through omission) about the "thai curry" dinner, when Christian's face shows he knows exactly what happened, but, to have Olli not say a thing.........
...there's no justification for why Olli could not be honest. He could have done at least that much (more), for himself, for Christian, for the truth of their relationship.
Oh what a tangled web we weave......

Olli not being honest sends wrong signals. Last time it happened, he was hiding the kiss. So what it he hiding now? Is it something he decided for himself is not important or is it something worse?

May i just hate the writers. They just lobotomised Olli's common sense center.
Excuse ME OLLI SCHATZ who the hell helped you rebuild the damn BAR when you became Gregor's partner? ROPPPP or CHRISTIAN? Then why the f**k won't he get your dream? Rop do you mind if i just pluck your eyes out and then yank out your tongue.
