The next poster that mentions Kacie, will unfortunately be handed a 3 day ban.

Most of his friends are probably 25, IMO, considering that he went back to college at a time when his contemporaries would have already left. So I think now I understand what Andi was saying on the show about maturity. I think it'll do him well to surround himself not only with 25yr olds but persons his age, IMO.

This is just Josh going into big brother protective mode. I hope he continues to focus on himself and own happiness.

Josh should let Aaron handle that situation and not rile up the situation.

Wish there was a like button- I'll give this a instead. Nicely stated!

Agree. I felt the same way about MeandI and her ridiculous tweets / vague tweets about JPG. I felt the same about mean girl Kelly Travisty and her tweets about JPG & others. I guess that makes me consistent in disliking the behavior, regardless of who is doing it.

I had this problem with Josh when he tweeted about KC Chiefs putting Aaron on IR. Aaron is an adult, so Josh should let him handle his own crap. Josh has an over-protectiveness which I don't find attractive. I hated when he did it with Andi and now with Aaron. Josh needs to learn a filter and that it isn't his issue to take care of everyone else.

Yep, like a bunch of middle schoolers passing notes in class. Immature.

Sadly, so true. :Nod:

Total headbanging and stupidity.

I agree Aaron is an adult and Josh should let him fight his own battles. To be supportive of his brother privately I understand. But Josh knows he is a "public figure" and people follow what he does on SM, and he needs to use better discretion.

Josh was there for his younger siblings when his parents were ill and that is admirable. But they are adults now, and for his own good, Josh needs to "cut the cord" of feeling the need to rush to his siblings' defense and protect them, and focus on his own life and future.

Re the ring thing, there was a time they loved her and imo the classy thing to do is continue to love and respect her despite the split...or ring situation ....where does the line between love and "hate" start, just curious. Pardon me GA if I am out line Smiley

IMO: I think Josh is doing a great job . He is working and doing charitable things. I think that he is so relieved that this is over and he can go back to his normal life. I also think that he was done with this charade relationship months ago. He is a family man that does have a protective side and will always be. I do not care what he favored it is his business . If he wants to hang out with his college friends that are younger than him does not make him immature. It is great when you have life long friends that you met in college. I see a man that is happy and has that sparkle back in him.

Thank You Josh for proving how right I was about you. Was there a need for us to know about the ring situation on SM? How does this involve us? He knew what he was doing when he was fav those tweets on SM. Aaron was old enough to propose he is old enough to handle his break up. He is just immature, my gosh.

Makes me wonder if he was in Nick shoes after the show how he would have handled it? I am sure the would have been passive-aggressive tweets from him ..........and people still think he would make a great bachelor? no no

.

I just hope from the next ette we get a great guy that people fall in love with and Fleiss forgets who Josh is.

For those who may have missed the warning, and avoid a 3 day ban, there is no discussion allowed related to Kacie in any way.

by LoveGodTheMost Mon Jan 26, 2015 2:03 am

StacyNor, the opinion I had of him diminished considerably after the comment he made about the F2 in an interview the day after their Finale...if I remember correctly, the interview was in NY, and I did comment at that time that diplomacy would have been the refined approach and gentlemanly.

I am an adult and so are my siblings and I will never stop feeling the need to stand up for my brother and sister and now for my nieces and nephews. I don't believe this makes me immature in any way. I understand there are a lot of families out there that aren't close anymore but there are still some that are. Blood is still thicker than water.

I think personally, the issue is not being loyal and standing up for loved ones, but how it is being done. Being loyal is a good thing. Being a town cryer can be annoying or at the least brings more attention making creating a situation where little existed.
Again, personally, I do not embrace SM other than to post to my private friends photos of friends/family/pets and that occasional upbeat post. The focus of my day is not calling out on SM. It can be said that this is a generational thing, but to a certain extent I don't think so, I think it's a personality thing.

I think those who had a bad opinion of Josh to begin with will just use this as an excuse to dislike him more, and that is their right. However, the fact is that Josh did not tweet out anything about that whole situation. He favorited some tweets from friends. That is it. He made no statements himself. So how does this involve anyone else? Well, it shouldn't unless you go to his twitter profile to see what he favorited. No one is forced to do that. So it's really this simple, if you don't want to get involved or hear about what Josh is doing, don't stalk his twitter or IG account.

We will never know how Josh may have handled the ATFR situation if in Nick's shoes. But this situation is nothing like that and is comparing apples to oranges IMO. The two aren't even relevant to each other.

And I personally did fall in love with Josh on the Bachelorette . He's my favorite bachelor contestant in any season. If people don't like him or want to hear about him then they should stop following him on SM and forums.

Josh has always been my fav & still is my fav. I think he's kind & probably went way beyond what anybody should do in a relationship. So there, I said it & believe it :yes:
