Love this one; thanks NR

They posted the hometown date previews in another thread.  Kind of disappointed by Nick's coverage.  Hope they are hiding the best parts from us.  Spent way more time on the other 3 guys imo... especially lots of kissing with Chris.

I actually liked the Nick coverage - Andi kept reaching out to touch him... they seemed relaxed and happy; like a couple.

Yes, that is true. Guess I am more used to all the full out make out sessions they have been showcasing lately.

I know what you mean, but I really enjoyed their natural chemistry; seemed like a couple in love.

That's hysterical, Nutty. Does that make him your tv FIL-to be?

Perhaps!! Just don't tell my husband or children!   

   and if you don't tell my husband or children about my love of all things Marcus, we've got a deal!

Hey can I bribe you both.  Nutty you are near Amish country, so maybe a beautiful Amish quilt?  Mia, not sure where you live, but I will try to figure it out.  I live near Augusta, GA, unless you like James Brown or golf I got nothing for y'all.  Sorry!

Are your hubbies. like mine? He says this helps keep me out of trouble, but if it keeps me away from my experiments after August, he may have to spank me!

I love that Nick loves 4th of July. It was always a big deal in my family as well.

I also think it is great that on his HTD he chose to have her meet not just his family but his friends, to show her what his life is really like.

As for the conservative thing with Nick's family. I expect Andi's family is conservative as well. GA is ridiculously conservative. A new law went into effect this week that any citizen can walk around with a firearm on them at all times and can take it into any church, bar, school, etc, unless the owner of the establishment posts clearly that guns are not allowed. My friend who is a DeKalb County Police Officer in ATL is not happy! We even have idiots running for office and their main advertisement is that they won't raise any taxes at all while their opponent has admitted we have to. Why does this matter? Well, first the state of GA has the lowest cigarette tax in the Southeast, people drive to GA from SC and AL to stock up it is at least 50 cents a pack cheaper. As for schools, education funding has been cut each year I have lived here. State employees have been ineligible for raises unless they receive a promotion since 2009, our class sizes in our schools are increasing and school districts are having to law off teachers, while we are still near the bottom in almost every education classification. Education is near crisis in this state, but no we don't need any new or raised taxes. Insane.

I don't hate GA, but the politics here make me crazy, be involved in higher education, I have seen my university miss out on a lot of great candidates for leadership at my university because we aren't financially competitive, even compared to the University of Alabama at Birmingham, so it isn't like we are even beating our neighbors.

Okay, rant is over, but conservatism with Nick's family should not be a problem for the Dorfs.

Yes, stuckinsc, me too. He seems so naturally happy as does she; like a young couple in love.

Hi, #TeamSalty:  :WAVEY: Nick deserves someone who will love, support, appreciate and cherish him wholeheartedly. I am totally at peace now no matter Andi chose him or not. Nick seems happy and content, with the love and support of his family, friends and fans. I hope if he's not f1, he and Sharleen can at least meet up and get to know each other, who knows maby they will like Chris L and Peyton.
Happy 4th!

OK, I've just seen the preview (thanks for the link) ... and all my convictions disappeared ... I'm confused by Andi like never before. Actually ... I'll be embarrassingly honest, I wish I haven't known the spoilers, because though I try not to give them any credit, I feel like I am compromised ... coming here, watching the show for the first time, not knowing anything about "the game", about the production play, only watching the story unfold, there would be no doubt in my mind that this is the guy.
I've been writing a post of my observations and theories for days and just can't feel posting it, because my "certainty" changes every hour, depending on my own mood. I also feel whatever I write and state now would be wrong, considering that the only one having in control all the game is Andy. She has all the answers and she is d*** good with her poker-face. And then there is the edit, that can make you believe that you know all and they leave out more than a half of the side. Either way, I'm done being pretentious to understand it all. What I do see ... aside from editing that screams to me "you're wrong", "that cannot go that way", "there will be a twist", "it's too obvious, stop hoping" ... aside from all the BS that usually happens with human interaction, having too much chatter, too many people around thinking to know it all, ready to guide you or advice you how to live your life ...
at the end is up to you, your choice of making the best out of it, for your own good, because at the end if you are happy, you will spread the happiness around.

You know what is funny and ironic at the same time ... even though I don't know this show much, I've grown up with one Italian TV show called Uomini e Donne (Men and Women), very different format, completely different setting, editing, story, but ... with the same scope (apart from engagement, there is non) ... finding LOVE.
And it happens everywhere, I keep seeing ... after so many years, after so many seasons and "failed" relationships of couples coming out of these "reality" shows ... people become cynic (and I am Cynic, oldGreek) ... they don't trust anymore that what they see is true love even when it's shown in their faces ... you know, when you just don't believe because it's too good to be true.

Well then I say, yeah, why shouldn't we believe, what is keeping us to trust in the most obvious, why can't this be as real as it is presented?
So, I'll wait to see.


ETA:
Does anyone have the same feeling that the edit of Nick is changing? ... giving him "the realness, genuineness", showing him being friendly, social, honest guy ... dunno, but one thing is sure ... I have trust in him and that his true nature will shine.

I think all of us on this board should relax and enjoy Nick's Journey.   I Strongly believe it will be all worth it in the end. It will be a bumpy ride but I have no worries and believe Nick will be F1.  You just have to FOCUS on the REAL love story that is unfolding in front of your eyes.  I am at peace with all this. :cutesmile!:

[stuckinsc]

happy, I kind of hope he isn't F1, I don't care for the Andi I see on my screen, I didn't like her when she took Cody and Chris's word over Nicks in epi 5 and how she made him admit he was wrong, when I didn't think he was wrong in epi 6.

If she does chose him and he is happy I will be happy for him. But honestly, I like him so much I would rather him with an intelligent woman who isn't a mean girl liked Andi.

yeah me too...albeit its a scripted Fleissian wuv story...   

Unfortunately, altho i will be a die hard team Sharnick FTW...i dont see its happening.....

tbh, like majority here think, all of her F4 are too good for her.... :P . Meandi has Alot to learn if she really wants to find her true love.   

that being said, i truly believe what Nick has for her is real...its an epitome of unconditional love . I assume Eric's death affect Andi and her relation with Nick and brought them closer.
