Not only did she unfollow him, her mom and brother did too.

Ok...thanks. I'll be glad to see the last of him.

No surprise though I was expecting it to happen after CT. Yes (almost) a whole year she wasted that she will never get back. *sigh* god bless her little heart she deserves more. When he started posting pics with girls supposedly his "friends", knew they were dunzo. Good riddance.

New contestants for BIP anyone? I'm sure JPab would do it if they paid him well enough...and they could bring Claire back!

Well isn't this convenient for JPG? Let CT highlight how bratty she is and THEN break up with her. He really did go on it just to repair his image.

Oh well, I'm glad it's over. They were awful together. Hope Nikki can move on, though I do understand how she must be feeling. She kept defending him and talking about how she wants it to last forever and then he most likely acted like he couldn't care less when it ended. That is a tough pill to swallow and really makes you feel like the relationship was a total waste of time. It's hard to accept the other person going about their life unaffected while you're deeply hurt. You just want to shake them to get some reaction. Been there, done that. Well Nikki should've learned from Andi's confrontation that there's no shaking JPG up. He's too in love with himself to give a single thought to anyone who doesn't like him. Admirable in a way, but frustrating for the people around him. But like I said in the CT thread the other day, this will be a good life lesson for Nikki. I'm sure she'll enter her next relationship with her eyes wide open.

Yes, great life lesson. She is better off. Like many have said she deserves someone who loves her back and is willing to give her the world.

I can't muster any sympathy for Nikki whatsoever. JPab is a total jerk but he never pretended to be something other than that. He didn't tell her he loved when he didn't. He didn't ask her to move to Miami to be with him when he had no intention of being with her long term. I can see her hoping that he would return her feelings after the show while they were in hiding. That she stayed past the ATFR when he didn't reciprocate is her own fault I'm very happy this long nightmare is over. I'm sorry for any fans that are hurt however.

I agree, why is Nikki the victim here? You are right CT did change my opinions of her.

She says she loves JPG but she doesn't show it. Andi made fun of JPG, contributed to the negativity that Nikki was so bothered by and still she defends Andi and gets mad at JPG because he is happy when someone understands how he might have been hurt by Andi.

This is a pet peeve of mine, so maybe I am a JPG. But you can say ILY all you want, when you don't show it with your actions they are just hollow words.

JPG cared about Nikki, at least I saw caring, but he didn't say ILY, but he showed caring, which he didn't get in return.

I think they are both flawed people who will be better off with someone more like them who communicates like they do.

But Nikki as the victim and poor Nikki, nope I think Nikki needs to learn a little too. Love isn't just a word, you have to show and act it too.

I don't know. I prefer Nikki although don't know if I'd characterize her as a victim. I think she made a mistake by thinking he would change but that doesn't often happen. My biggest problem with JPG is that I felt he went into TB without any intention of a long term relationship. It seems to me that he stayed with Nikki with the goal of CT and the money & tv time. JMO of course. 

I don't really care about how they were on CT because JPL obviously knows his way around a camera and Nikki just as clearly doesn't enjoy it. I ended up just watching epi 1 because it didn't interest me. I'm probably not as big a Nikki fan as I was on his show partly because of her friendship with Andi. I'm afraid the mean girl tag was right (for both) all along and I just didn't see it. Even still I hope Nikki does move on and find someone off camera who's better suited to her.

I cannot remember. Did JPG give Nikki a ring at FRC? If so, did they stay together long enough for her to keep it (per contract)?

He gave her a blasted rose and i like you very much

^^ and a wink. Don't forget the wink. :winkie:

Honestly, I am not the least bit surprised, nor do I feel the LEAST bit sorry for either Nikki(or JP).
