Kailah Casillas and Stephen Bear have ruined their friendship by getting intimate and they are now in an awkward space as hook-up partners. And none of this would have happened if maybe Kailah had held back and never acted on the feelings she has towards Bear. 

This week, the MTV-backed 'The Challenge: Total Madness' had a special focus on a 'Fast & Furious 9' stunt and Kailah-Bear relationship. It wasn't easy to get Kailah to like Bear, he had to really pursue her, get rejected multiple times but he never gave up. For the longest time, she pushed him saying she had a boyfriend back home and therefore, they won't be able to get together. But the very persistent Bear got his way eventually.

Oddly enough, Bear has a girlfriend back home and he had said the reason why he doesn't call her up is because of the connection he feels with Kailah is stronger. Maybe he said all of that to get Kailah to kiss him. And when Kailah is having a meltdown over the incident, he said he was a gentleman and "respects women." 

And those words have fan trolling him left, right and center. "Bear and treating women with respect NEVER belong in the same sentence. EVER. #TheChallenge35," a fan shared, while another said: "I am a gentleman, I respect women". Bear is a disgusting liar. Period. #TheChallenge35."

However, there was also a section of viewers who thought that Kailah shouldn't entertain Bear at all. "Why is she still entertaining this clown?? Where did you think this thing with Bear (professional fuckboy) was gonna go??? #TheChallenge35," one user commented. 

"Bear is trash, he knew she had a man, and he continued his fuckboy ways to tempt her, and she then fell for it. Both of them are wrong. little boy, BYE. I don’t care, I SAID WHAT I SAID. #TheChallenge35," another thought both were equally wrong.
