Jessica makes her feelings known to Luke in Winter House season 2
At the beginning of Winter House season 2 episode 3, the ladies in the house were reeling from Craig's altercation with Luke. The latter was accused of making women uncomfortable, indicating his connection with newcomer Jessica. The two men got into an altercation in the previous episode which led Luke to leave the house feeling insulted by Craig.
This week, the ladies realized that Jessica felt uncomfortable with Luke as he tried to bond with her. They sat down with the newbie to talk about her feelings regarding the situation. She stated that she was interested in Luke when coming into the house, however, she felt uncomfortable when he started getting intimate when she gave hints of not feeling good about the same.
She said:
"Sometimes when a girl backs away after she was initially interested -- they feel like they're allowed to keep pursuing you because you were interested in the first place. It got to the point where -- I think with guys, when you give them an inch and they take a mile...it's uncomfortable."
Jessica confessed to growing up in a conservative household, which led to her holding up values of the same. The Winter House star revealed that growing up in a Baptist church had her believe that she had to shut down and that the man was the dominant one. So it was hard for her to speak up or stand up for herself while in a relationship.
Later on in the episode, Luke returned to the house and Jessica decided to share her feelings about the incident. She confessed to wanting to explain her thought process, but refused to hear anything back from Luke when he offered to follow up with his explanation. She said:
"Cause when you make someone feel a certain way, just let them explain that, and don't give them an explanation and you don't have to apologize. We're just gonna move past it, okay?"
Jessica explained that she had made the boundaries of physical intimacy clear while they were in the hot tub and felt like her body language was obvious of her not being accepting of Luke being physical. The Winter House star continued:
"I know I hadn't verbally said things...and sometimes when a girl doesn't need to - to verbally tell you in order for you to understand or get the hint that she doesn't want your hands on her. So I had just felt like that line had been crossed."
After hearing what she had to say, Luke acknowledged her feelings and the duo decided to move past it.
Fans slam Jessica for her lack of explanation to Luke on Winter House
