^^Josh is the type of guy she is used to dating....

... I feel like he will be hurting and he seems like a decent guy...I just want to be supportive.

Fortunately from what I've read Nick comes from a large family and has good friends that will be there for him as the season progresses.

Andi doesn't spend a lot of time with each guy.  They don't have the opportunity to get to know each other very well. IMO it's not difficult for the guys to move on once they're off the show and back to their normal routine.

If the video is real then I like Nick all the more. It just shows how real he is, for once we see a non edited version of a contestant. I agree with the poster who said that he mentioned nothing about hoping to be the bachelor, nothing to the extent that he didn't care about Andi, or that he was insincere about the process in any way! He was frustrated and venting and if that is Nick at his lowest, then I think Nick is a pretty darn good guy! I hope the video is real, cause I would rather him find a nice sincere girl in the real world!

Even though I would love for RS to be wrong about all of this, I'm with you that I hope (a little bit) it is for real. IMO Nick seemed fine, especially if he was pegged as the emotional guy all season, he didn't seem all that emotional in the videos. It seemed like he really just needed someone to agree with his opinion on how things went down. If he was believing that Andi went back to what she knew, that was easy, he was looking for someone to reaffirm his thoughts.

I will say that aside from the date of the phone call and the bad mouthing of Andi and Josh, the thing that stands out to me as the most fabricated was that Jason Mesnick's season came up and how he switched girls. Not that I have ever heard an F2 have this conversation with someone before, but as a guy who was quite unassuming, and let's be honest a guy in general, that he knew what happened on the show 11 seasons ago piqued my interest a bit.

He didn't say their names so he may have been told about them by the producers.

Gosh, was it really that long ago?!..... These seasons really just fly by.

Nick Viall - 2:48-3:00…“No, nope, ummmm, I mean, she went back to what she’s used to…I mean, I don’t know how else to…I mean again…actions speak louder than words, like, I don’t know what else to say other than, like, it seemed like she really changed her mind, like, at the last moment.”

What does everyone think he means by the bold?

My take: Atlanta's life

Maybe it's the go to scenario for the shows psychologist when dealing with the F2... "well there was the guy that changed his mind".... It potentially worked for Arie and warranted Emily a post show visit from him and a LIVE finale ("what will she do!?!?). Maybe they will set Andi up with the same gig.

The fact that I was even able to count back that far without having to look up anything on wikipedia is sad to me. Deanna' season was my first season on FORT. During that time when we were trying to figure out if the guy in the limo window looked the most like Jason or Jesse, as I sat as my computer despartely waiting for Graham to return.

iA that he didnt put his feet Into his mouth and managed to be not too 'trashy' with his rant..

Mind you Britt, from what ive Seen from the preview and his limo arrival, looks like your fav this season not getting a great edit, unlike our Chris last season. They even edited him similar as the most hated villains on the show: Courtney and Vienna by showing his argument with Cody . Wonder what was his fault to TPTB?   

I really Hope he Will be pulling a Chris L or Chantal

I always have a soft spot for underdogs. When I first saw Nick's pictures, I didn't find anything special about him. Then I saw the promo video clips, for some reason, I found him more attractive in action. Then I saw his IG/twitter pictures, I was like, WOW, this guy is like a chameleon! His look changes all the time! After the first episode and the preview for ep. 2, I find him endearing, sincere, a little dorky and shy, but genuine and real, different from the beefcakes/pretty boys we used to see, and I like it!
Now in the infamous video, I like when he said ":23-34…“Because I sensed it throughout the whole thing…and I kept saying to her “I can’t wait til we’re in the real world…can’t wait til we get to do this stuff…we just go to, like, K-Mart and just chill…and don’t even have to worry about the this other stuff, you know?" K-Mart is probably not the most romantic place to take your girl, but to me, it shows he understands the show is not the reality, and he wants to take her outside of the Bachelorette bubble to the real world, very down to earth. I also like he repeated he "loved" her family. With his own big family, I am sure he will be a great husband to some lucky girl one day.
I just like to root for someone when watching the show; it's more fun! My favorites are never the winner so I don't really care if Nick is F1 /2/3/4. So for now, I am teamnick

I also think he used the k-mart comment as a metaphor for what happens in the real world. Starbucks would have been better, but he didn't plan for everyone to hear this   

Mura, I will hold out as far as his edit goes! We have only seen one episode so far. As far as the preview goes, we also have josh sounding a bit jealous and possessive as well. I am sure Nick is not the only one to have words with Cody! I do agree that F1 is not typically shown in the preview making drama, but I would hardly compare it to Courtney or Vienna. Everyone knew going into their season that they were the villains. I don't think anyone suspects that of Nick from that preview.
Oh and I like what I see Of Brian so far, much cuter in action
