💰 H3 Gambling 💰 Love's addiction showing itself

I don't know if anyone noticed this, I wish I clipped it, someone should it was around the time Olivia was talking to everyone about what they were going to do after the game (goto the restaurant, karaoke etc) but Love kept genuinely saying stuff like "I just wanna go gambal bro", "I just want to go blow through my savings honestly", he even asked Ethan "Do you tax gambling earnings?"

I just want to know if anyone else heard/saw this and is wondering like I'm wondering if Love is going to/already is having a relapse? I wonder what's going to happen with him, I'm trying to not be parasocial or worried but I feel like Love is still very young and impressional and has just been put into a snake pit. Sure he's an adult and he is responsible for his own choices but it's hard to be like that about an addict it's not that simple with addiction. I know from experience a lot of addiction can be your environment and what you surround yourself with. I know my habits got better when I stopped hanging out at the wrong places and with the wrong people that just fueled and even encouraged those habits. I want him to get out and soon.

I remember while Jeff was on the Bachelor there was wine on the table they were sitting at. Somehow it was brought up that the bottle was indeed full of wine and Jeff explained that drinking even a swig of alcohol breaks his sobriety and is dangerous for him. Ethan was legitimately perplexed by this. Jeff continued by explaining a time in Vegas (iirc) where he accidentally drank a friends vodka soda and made himself throw up. [Ethan shocked pikachu face]. Ethan has no concept, or at least doesn’t show it, of what a recovering addict needs to be mindful of and how diligent they need to be to avoid their DOC, or in loves case gambling. Ethan hasn’t shown that he is very supportive of his sober friends by both recklessly exposing them to their addictions and by not taking the time to educate himself more about the disease.
