The preview of their Jeep LCD : I thought of DeAnna and Jason right away
If I were the final 2, as soon as I see my LCD has nothing to do with boats, I would know I am not chosen... they need to change

Is it bad I just want it to end ???? Or go back to May and tell nick to run and that his nervousness was warranted.

emad, I think what you feel is a natural reaction. My old self will try to preserve my heart from breaking by sticking to spoiled F1.  I think it was after Deanna's season that I had to lie low for a while because I picked Jason and he didn't win.  But guess what there will be better things for our boy. I am starting to detach from Nick/Andi - even be happy for Josh/Andi - instead rejoice in Nick, he will find great love soon.

I don't think Nick wants to "handle" Andi like Josh does. When she's not supportive of what Josh is saying, he takes the reins and they're both happy. When she wasn't supportive of Nick last night, it really became kind of stressful for both of them. I feel like the Josh/Andi personalities are a good fit in that Josh naturally wants to be the guy she wants to be with, JMO of course.

^^ ITA Andi is a very strong alpha female (I identify with her fully). I was attracted and dated alphas like Josh (physique/athletes and all) because like her I find that attractive. However, somewhere in my 20s I met a Nick and I married him - I only dated him because common friends set us up on a blind date. And we hit it off intellectually. So it all depends on her priorities currently.

[sdmom]

After reading about her blog re. losing her tooth and her tweet about the same thing, I am 99.99% sure she didn't choose Nick. I am hoping Nick was let go before FRC as gently as Andi could   
What he said in that plane video all makes sense now. I believe she was attracted to both guys, but Josh is just comfortable and easy for her, especially he's from her hometown. I can believe why Nick felt she's scared to try the unknown, re. relationship with him.
I am sure Nick was hurt and heartbroken, but hopefully he had called his parents on May 9th and was comforted. He seems to have a good idea of what is reality (I got it from his plane video) and what is bachelor bubble (from his tweets). Looks like he's moving on,with the love of his family and friends,  but I feel that watching the whole thing unfolded in front of him is like opening new wounds, but hopefully he can also see her relationship with Josh and understands why she made the decision. For Nick's sake, I hope July 28 comes soon, so he will get a closure and get back to his life.
Nick deserves someone who loves, cherishes, supports, respects, adores him unconditionally and wholeheartedly. He went into the process with all he had, who he was, unapologetically and no regrets. If Andi is not the person, so be it. He will find his Mrs. Right someday. Hopefully soon!

Great post sdmom! He has been nothing but cordial funny and very humble post show.

I feel like this is one of the rare shows where the lead really was confused and did not make a final decision until (or near) the very end.

She REACHES for Nick.  She INITIATES with Nick.  She isn't faking it; she WANTS to be with him.

And Nick is soooo my type.  I adore Andi and Josh together, too, but it would eventually drive me nuts how little Josh actually SAYS.  Nick verbalizes everything, all the little thoughts; Josh winks and nods them.  Two very different (and insanely attractive in their own ways!) men.

I really wish we could know the full story, what is really going on in her head.  

Really good post dw_a_mom. Nick is soooo my type too. Josh great guy, but like you said... not much demonstrated depth.

Not sure why the blog was the swaying factor for your sdmom... care to explain??
great post... I really appreciate your Nick love.
If Nick's F2, I also hope watching the show helps him get over Andi...
But, I still can't believe Andi would say the things she did about Nick seeing her mind, heart and soul... having a once in a lifetime love and still let him go. I believe her and I just can't believe she'd let that go... different strokes...

I agree to the bolded. What a rough ride for him! Heartbroken and the accidental villian. Doesn't even get a shot at the Bachelor. I'm worried about the ATFR though. I hope he's not a mumbling mess.

No matter how hard I tried, I can't ignore all the "clues" anymore. Two things that really did me in: Josh's mom rented a place for FRC. It would be too cruel if Josh was not F1, IMO. Remember Andi posted a tweet "life is too short smile when you still have teeth" with a picture of her and a tooth? In her blog, she revealed she lost a tooth on the way to her FD with Josh. She told Josh and he's very cool about it. To me, that's definitely a shout out to f1.

I can only hope he has more than 2 months to organize his thoughts and will be able to verbalize what he's been thinking.   
It will be great if he doesn't face to face with Andi... but maybe he wants to?
BTW, he's quiet on SM, so is JJ, his bestie. I wonder maybe they did meet up after MTA taping?

I think Josh's mom rented a place for a charity event, which was planned in advanced. I am not sure it 100% means she is renting it for a Josh is F1 party.

[Piper61]

^^^Do you know the details of when she rented it that leads you to think it was planned in advance?

No doubt she is using this platform to support charity.

[GuardianAngel]

Momma Murray posted on her facebook the other day. It's a charity event/viewing party, and it's being held in Tampa. As far as planning in advance, I don't think she did, otherwise we would have somehow found out.

[missjayne]

I don't know if it's because I find Nick so attractive and Josh nice yet boring, but I just wonder even if Josh is the F1 (which I believe esp due to that video), does Andi still have lingering feelings for Nick or is she like completely over him or did she really not have very strong feelings for him and was just acting the whole time. I know I'm just being hopeful but I can't help but wonder if Andi is now 100% in love with Josh and has no feelings for Nick watching the show back. I haven't been watching post filming interviews with andi...does she pretty much confirm she is engaged and happy? I know Josh is nice, handsome etc but I guess I just would never pick someone like Josh over
Nick but I guess I am not Andi.

so have we figured out why Nick was in LA and why producers were with nick in his hometown recently?
