A show fan posted this on IG and I just think it is the cutest thing:



It reminds me of the lovely film "The Neverending Story"  

Nick has some exceptional fans on SM.  Gotta love the believers  

im still amazed at the heli scene. with that device around their heads they just cant keep their lips from e.o. Mind you,the camera guy is right in front of them !  :shocked!:. they even surpassed Chres's hot heli scene in my book    #whatlovedoestoyou

That's just adorable! and the little boy's checkered shirt!
I am really happy that more and more people come out to support Nick despite the horrible edit

This was a tough season for me because against all odds, I picked the contestant that I knew was spoiled F2.  In seasons past (before RS), I always picked the F1 based on "chemistry" (btw did you notice that Nick got the chemistry VO last night?).   I usually got it right (only time I had doubts was Andy/Tessa, Chris/Des, and Jason seasons - and see where 2 of those ended).  But my MO would be to ignore everything else so I can stay "in fan mode" for my chosen one. Lately, when everything was spoiled - I found myself rooting for the spoiled F1 and "fangirl-ing" on the couple (case in point Sean).  When I did that, I wouldn't want to look at any other connections and refuse to believe my hero/ine could have fallen in love with 2 or more people.

It was not until recently that I started picking contestants that I liked and stuck with them even if they leave early.  For example, Sharleen - after she left, I didn't care but maybe because JPG became unlikeable.  I also liked Andi that season but not as much as Sharleen (I think I naturally gravitate to intelligent types). This season, I started out in Josh camp coz I was spoiled early.  Full disclosure tho - Josh type would be my comfort zone (hence Sean my fav right?) But for some reason, I was pulled into Nick's camp as the season progressed.  Honestly, I was fighting the pull all the way to HTD.  Finally, as you all know, I joined you all around that episode.

So I tried to figure out why I deviated from my usual MO of ignoring all SMs and fan threads for the other contestant, instead I really looked at body language, chemistry, and interactions, and all clues for both F2.  I think I saw what everyone else (especially on this fan thread and even TPTB) saw:  Andi fell in love with two very different people and her ideal is a combination of the two.  I chose to "watch" Nick from the beginning because I think I saw him open up, become vulnerable, and fall in love.  I don't think TPTB showed us much of that from Josh.  I believe that TPTB saw this love story unfold so they encouraged the "scheming (per Marcus)" to happen as much as they could.  Yes, I saw in Nick the qualities that now with my life experiences would want to be with for a long term relationship.  (After all, I married someone like him - articulate, cunning yet shy, influential in a quiet way, confident, and up to par with me cerebrally).

So from this season I take away as lessons learned that a lead can fall in love with two people (my jealous self can’t take that, but I opened my eyes and believed).   I get the show now and I think Andi, albeit difficult, found great love.  Her interaction with Josh is different than any of the other men on the show – she wasn’t the one coaxing or leading.  She became vulnerable to Josh, whereas she was very confident and in control with all the other men including Nick. With that said, does her past relationships play into that? Yes because – she prepared herself to get hurt with men like Josh and opened up more with him whereas she really has no experience with men like Nick or experience relationships like she’s built with Nick.  I think SM (knowing Nick outside of the edits) endeared Nick to me coupled with the progression of love I saw on screen.  

Perhaps this will become a pattern with me staying open and rejoicing in the outcome yet liked a contestant based on who they are not because they ended up with the lead.  Regardless of the outcome, I still love Nick and will support him with whatever is next for him.

Great post catdwoman. I appreciated reading about your process... I watched unspoiled thru episode 5 and picked Nick...

I can see that there's definitely something with Josh, but Nick offers something so rare and unique, something Andi's said is a once in a lifetime connection; someone who sees her mind, heart, soul.   

I just don't see the depth of connection between Andi and Josh (in fact she said as much in her talk with CH)... but we'll see... Anything can happen...

Someone upthread said if Andi leaves Nick she'll always be thinking of the one that got away... I would concur... Josh is a great guy; Nick is just special. Don't see how Andi can walk away from him... but we'll see.....

Loved their date last night.  These two crazy kids are in luv.   

Boy those sneaky editors are doing everything in their power to cast doubt.  I’m not going for it!!  

Andi’s ITM after Nick told her she loved him was priceless.  Appeared she was on cloud nine.  

MF & Co have done a fabulous job with setting this up for the big KABOOM on the 28th.   

PB & Red Wine anyone????

It's a vid so I'm not knowledgeable enough to post it as such.  Help someone?

Anyone else notice that in Andi's latest blog she appears to have no desire to apologize for any of her kissing scenes with Nick? Like Nick's sister said during the HTD: "can you be yourself unapologetically"?

as an awesome friend insightful thought : at the end of HTD he no longer saw her as the Bachelorette. 'just my girl'. so..anything can happen  :bigsmile:

well said....  ..i do wonder if she meant by Dad and Mom apology for that pool kissing was also as in: Dad and Mom (future) in-laws?...

After watching last night, I loved Nick even more but think Andi should choose Josh.  Her diva/bratty comment sealed it for me.  I think Josh has two women in his family who are somewhat similar to Andi, making her fit into that family much easier than into Nick's.  I posted this somewhere else but I couldn't get over Hy's frown and skeptical look in the previews for last night.  Guess that's where Andi gets it!

I totally get what you are saying here. If by some chance Nick is not F1, I believe from all SM indications he is doing well.  I think the Diva/bratty behavior would quickly become so old and annoying.  As I have said before, if Nick ended up with Andi, I hope she would really adore and appreciate the man Nick is because he only deserves the best.  And if the best means it is with somebody else besides Andi, I will be all for it.  Nick is very special and he has so much love to give that I would hate for him to give that to the wrong person.  I guess we will all see what happens in 2 weeks but my gut feeling still tells me Nick is F1.

REALLY!! That comment stood out for me too... because to my eyes that pool scene wasn't half as steamy as what was going on behind the tree with her and Nick!!! I mean that kissing, all passionate and almost out of control was HOT, HOT, HOT!!!
