22-year-old Carrington Rodriguez came on Season 2 of 'Love Island' feeling fairly confident that he would definitely meet a girl on the show. While confidence is, in general, a very attractive trait, fans however didn't seem to like it in Carrington. After watching the premiere episode of the hit reality dating show, they concluded that something about Carrington didn't sit well with them.

When Carrington was introduced by the hostess- Arielle Vandenberg, Kaitlynn Anderson was instantly drawn to him. Instead of feeling pleased at the attention he was getting, Carrington tried acting all coy. He decided to couple up with Kaitlynn while making remarks about her attractiveness. Instead of focussing on forging a connection with her or saying hello to her, he went around shaking hands and hugging the other men and completely missed introducing himself to his new partner.

Later, when other men began showing their interest in Kaitlynn, he started getting all jealous. While Johnny was trying to talk to Kaitlynn and understand her, he simply pulled her aside and kissed her. His sloppy kissing and avoiding making eye contact while talking to her, immediately raised red flags in the heads of the audience. Fans weren't impressed with Carrington and his behavior. A fan tweeted, "Im sorry but carrington rubs me the wrong way like he couldnt even look sis in the eye and i feel like that kiss was to mark his territory or something #LoveIslandUSA."



 

Another fan wrote, "Words cant explain how much carrington already annoys me #LoveIslandUSA."



 

"A man referring to himself as an alpha? Immediate red flag. Re: Carrington on #LoveIslandUSA," pointed out a fan.



 

"You can tell carrington is a very insecure man like just the way he talks about himself and the way he was eating kaitlynn’s face off like.... #LoveIslandUSA," pointed out a fan.



 

"Carrington ur cute but every second of screen time u get makes me dislike u more. WHAT WAS THAT KISS PLS BOY LMAO  #LoveIslandUSA," expressed a fan.



 

"Carrington came in saying he's gonna be the Alpha but he's been relegated to Omega on Night One #LoveIslandUSA," joked a fan.



 

'Love Island' Season 2 airs from Monday to Saturday at 9/8c only on CBS.
