Re: Nick Viall Bachelorette 10 - *Fan Forum* - *Spoilers* - Discussion - Thread #7

[GuardianAngel]

He is the most sweetest guy ever. I hope everyone realizes that tomorrow night. He has a good heart, it's obvious he appreciates everything in life.

His fan thread has shared many great pics, and lots of good tweets IG etc. We are lucky to be able to get to know him a little better by SM.

Everyone has such positive energy in here, supporting their guy, which is wonderful. We have many guests visiting, as you can see by the numbers. We have no idea who those guests are, but I like to think that even if one or two are family or friends, they can see the support he has just by these threads that have been created. We are on #7!.

Thanks to all who have always tried to keep it positive even when at times it was tough. What ever happens, everyone should be proud of all the hard work they put into Nick's Fan thread, showcasing what a great guy he truly is!

Hang on to your hats... it's going to be great!!!

Thank you GA for providing an awesome place for the Nick love.

I am excited for tomorrow whether Nick is F1 or F2. He has shown us he is fine now and so I will enjoy seeing him again. I am glad for his family that the adventure is almost over. Poor Mrs. Viall posted on facebook once how hard it was.

Nick is truly a great guy and I am glad that we got to know him. And again, a shirtless pic per week would be appreciated. Maybe I can tape them to the fridge to motivate myself and hubby to work out?

I saw that earlier but didn't really think anything of it. It is from the Bill Murray parody account he has been following for a while and Andi also just recently followed.

Thanks GA!! That was very sweet and very kind! I agree that Nick is the sweetest guy ever!

Feel free to put this in the clues thread, if you feel so moved. Still Team Nick.
Things I've noted: In the opening scenes getting ready to introduce the men -- Nick in second group of men getting in limo shots. He is hidden at first, camera cuts away before you see him, shadowy him about to get in limo - Andi says 25 men to find what I'm looking for

she says she really believes her - great love - (two words seem to be dubbed) is somewhere waiting in that group of men - he's in the group that is next shown toasting "to Andi" - Nick again hidden (this time by the drink he is toasting)

Andi says (voiceover) as she is coming out of mansion in greeting gown. I feel so lucky. I'm about to meet my husband.
Somebody says I'm excited to finally meet her. Chris is shown, then Nick (yes, looking excited, eyebrows  go up) You hear him say, but don't see it. "She's gotta be nervous, like us". The next thing Andi's telling Chris H. she's so excited, but so nervous. Mind-reader? Ha-ha. No Josh shown in the first limo or group of men walking scenes

Interesting...Marquel is in the first limo (he was part of first group shown
walking, getting in Limo that Nick was in). Nick is shown later, after lamp guy, I think.
She clearly digs polka dot tie, way he wore a suit. Nick front and center at toast
after rose ceremony, clearly not as skeptical, right? Josh by him.
--------------------------------
ABC commercial? bachelorette promo  - flash of shots - noticed bird man shots twice, vo my life is about to change, her walking in masquerade gown, Josh talking about how natural, how great it is when he's with her over her kissing Nick in Venice, then shot of Josh and her dancing, he tells her she makes him happy, then Nick voiceover? I can totally see myself growing old with her over her sledding with Eric. (just a thought. tbt reference to Sean and Catherine in the snow? When she said she could see him as an old man?)

Andi's VO there are things that I felt that I didn't even know were possible over her kissing Chris. Then closeup of Nick saying he is 100% crazy about her. Andi vo during fireworks kiss he sees every part of me, there is that connection I cannot even deny over her and Josh close up kiss. Nick and her at Venice again him telling her that once you have something special you are afraid you are going to lose it.

You hear Nick say she's my girl, then they show him telling the guys I am not interested in your dates.

May 1st abc promo - focus on nick shots first date - things we didn't see...but were told about.
her first time in helicopter Eric's date, then later she's excited on Nick's first time in a helicopter
On Chris' date Andi talks about love for a lifetime - she later says level of passion with Nick is once in a lifetime (at least twice).
During Chris' date, Andi talks about liking people who are sweet and genuine. Said that about Nick in first ITM after First Impression Rose.
Also during Chris' date she talks about it takes gut to break off an engagement when it is just not right. (maybe a voiceover).
Andi also talks during that date about not just good, but great. (theme of great love - later discussed by Andi and Nick).
My opinion - if the feelings of love had been there with Chris, it might have been him and Nick at the end. They did seem on the same page early on and I think she really liked Chris, (another reference to them both looking for great love - not just good, not settling for just
good, and she said she was so happy right now) but again my opinion - here comes Nick! game over.
Date night card at second cocktail party. discussion about perfect connection, both wanting good, not great. What has she talked about regarding him the whole season? Their great connection. Sitting by him and J.J. (another guy I felt she was really leaning  toward) when
Chris came to get her for the rose ceremony. Nick V. had a polka dot handkerchief that ceremony. Remember polka dot cup and dress of Andi when little with polka dots. Coincidence or clues??? She kissed Josh first, but had a whole day and good night date with our Nick. positive thinking...
Description of Nick during their first one-on-one, they don't say again the rest of the season, it seems that she talks about the connection and passion instead - she feels giddy, romantic, that spark with their kissing. Skeptic Nick, but still ecstatic about going on his first one-on-one. "Normal" date, so she can get to know him. Guys already jealous. One of ABC's TV promos talk about 3 little words. Jea-lou-sy. The marriage talk on their date. Discussion of possibility of falling in love with the idea of someone, not them. (recognition of the dangers of the bubble) He will recognize real love because he felt he has had it.

Andi starts seeing that connection - 100% potential. Talks about their having so much in common. She wants to turn him (the skeptic) into a believer by developing real feelings for him. Challenge? Note: no like challenge with Josh. He's already declared her "his" by the second cocktail party.

Discussion after mime date - Andi ITM talks about he sees who she is, and the mental/emotional connection off the charts. Andi tells him
he's causing a ruckus in her mind. During the surprise one-on-one (Venice) Andi discusses being heartbroken by Nick if he turns out not to be who she thought. Real feelings IMO. (You can't be heartbroken by someone you don't care about. Voiceover during masquerade hall date. Nick ITM is falling in love. Rose would validate those feelings.

Andi voiceover "Nick looks amazing. In his tux, he looks like a Prince."  (VO) Date in Venice with Nick has been amazing. Never did I think we would be in the 6th week and he would be saying he's falling in love with me. Feels good to hear it (slight emphasis I hear) from Nick. She doesn't want it to end. If I end up with Nick, I could look back on this date and say Ok, Venice is where I think I fell in love with him. Makes me very hopeful for the future. Clearly liked him stealing her away at the next cocktail party. That is a man. Very expressive about that, and the fact he couldn't wait to kiss her. The sneak over in Brussels. Yes, totally set up. His reason? Going into hometowns - he needed to know where she was at.

He's been persistent all his life, especially when something is important to him. She squeals with him. A sign she is excited and falling, too. Regardless of the date she just came off of, and the one she would be going on "tomorrow.

4 on 1 date, winner gets hometown for sure and a private date. No contest. Nick wins. Chris is a close? second, I think.

Chris seems to be her "Sean" (per Emily's season) Passion not there, but everything else fits.

We all saw Andi hug and keep holding on to Nick and squealing at the start of FS date. Girlfriend kept nudging him with her knee the entire time they talked until the reading of the storybook, then switched to massaging his leg. I totally see her besotted with him at this point. When she says "I love hearing that" to his quiet declaration of "I love you, Andi" it is barely breathed on the way to the "kiss". But that smile before, and the ITM immediately confirming that happiness on hearing it (which we did not get with Josh - that I can remember) was so telling to me. What conflicts are left? He's out of the house with the other guys, she's seen him interact positively with close friends and how he is in real life (as opposed to the bubble where the guys were probably encouraged to be jealous of him), got a green light from the family (which she voiced). Hy? Edit, edit, edit and voiceovers to make it seem Hy is intimidating him - a new problem. Are we to believe Josh (who has had way less time) can match Nick in the "great love" department? I don't see it. His "romantic" gift is sports-oriented.

Nick's newest twwets seem to be warning us about the letter-

"It is only a mistake if you regret it" and tetweeting about meeting up with JJ next weekend. Lollapallooza?

Put this in the tweet thread, but it is also Nick info.

The tweet could be about anything.  
For example, a degree of public perception of Nick was formed by how many times guys from the Bach "fraternity" badgered him. It was harmful enough for Mary Viall to post a comment on her Facebook page.

If all the guys had agreed that they also didn't want to talk about their dates, whoop it up when someone got a date card, or talk about their developing connections with Andi then we might have seen more scenes like Brian's fear of pickles or Chris, Dylan, and Marcus dancing.   Some of the guys involved in the "Nick dissecting" have since visited (Chris) or plan to (Brian).  Dylan is also in SM communication with Nick.  So... I guess they thought it was a mistake cause they regretted it enough to make amends.  The show is a fishbowl.  Good people are not always at their best and that's ok.  People who don't express regret about something they did would then strongly believe that they followed through on what they believed to be true.

JJ and Marquel had no regret about speaking up to Andrew.  Andrew has no regret because he's sure he didn't say anything offensive.  CH brought up the topic which I think Marquel & Andrew had already spoke about privately (I think Andrew said they talked on the phone).  I think it's regrettable that it was brought up again since the two seemed to have dealt with it themselves - a mistake for entertainment purposes.

There are lots of examples of mistake/regret throughout the season.

JJ tweet: Nick is meeting up with JJ.  He is also meeting up with Brian and Marquel. Ron may be visiting as well. I get that people may think this means one thing or the other but in "real life" most people don't isolate themselves from their social circle just because they are in a relationship, engaged, or married.  Some, of course do, but no one I hang out with.  These meet ups say much more about how many of the guys value their relationship with Nick, and how he is able to separate the "show" guys from who they are in "real life" (he is the other half of each friendship) than it does about the FR.

I mentioned that earlier.  Andi started to follow the same parody account that Nick has been following for a while now.  I would say if it were the real Bill Murray, probably a coincidence, but a parody account, that Nick faves and retweets from a lot, not really a coincidence, IMO.

Great post GA! And I agree 100 percent. No matter what, I will always support Nick and am happy a Chicago boy got into the final 2. He made what could have been an ordinary season extraordinary!

[sbolduc]

I have to say that I thought I had finally stopped watching this show when I didn't watch last season. I didn't know a lot about Andi, I had heard mixed things. But I thought I will take a look at the guys and see if there are any that peak my interest and will make it worth while to watch. I also did a little research on here and RS site to learn a little more about Andi herself.

The first guy that caught my attention was Eric, he definitely drew me in and I quickly watched all of his videos on his website. I found him absolutely captivating. Once we knew he left pretty early on, the next guy that kind of drew me in (not to the same extent) was Brian, he seemed cute in a non-assuming way.

Then the final four were announced Josh and Marcus, who seemed to be early favourites on this board, and two unknowns Chris and Nick. I love when a lead surprises me, so I jumped to wanting Chris to be "the one", the small town farmer from Iowa, mainly because he was physically appealing to me. I still had a little part of me that was routing for Nick, mainly because a lot of people including myself immediately predicted that he was the F4 guy, without knowing really anything about him.

Then we started to learn a little more, he got the FIR, the 3rd week 1-on-1, the romantic Venice date, hometown GDR and extra SQT, we learned he was sensitive (he cried when seeing his friends), that he needed a lot of reassurance which Andi consistently gave him, and I realized I had completely underestimated this guy, I was intrigued. I remember I was in Mexico on vacation and realized I wonder if the final 2 had been released, so I checked my phone (the only time on my vacation I did ) and I was secretly wishing for a Chris and Nick final, the two guys that had been written off so quickly when the guys were released. So, I was disappointed that it wasn't these two but even more surprised that Nick the guy I had so quickly written off, as the F2 guy.

Then the infamous video came out, I thought as soon as I saw RS' post, I am going to hate this guy. Instead of hating him, the video made me an instant fan. For the first time I had seen a completely unedited (IMO) video of a contestant, after they had been let go. Instead of saying "she wasn't worth it" or "I was just in the bubble I see I wasn't in love now" or "at least I have a shot of the Bachelor" or "well at least I got to travel" all he could talk about was Andi, their special connection, how he loved her family, wanting a life outside the bubble, and the guy she chose over him. No matter what else came out about this season, believing that the video was real, I will always believe that Nick's feelings, within the confines of the process, for Andi were completely genuine, that video convinced me of that.

Through out the season we were introduced to a man who was analytical, salty, serious, passionate, sensitive, nervous, intellectual, sweet, thoughtful and kind. He was incredible forthwright and blunt, and could resolve a "potential" issue within one conversation. I believe he challenged himself, the process and Andi herself.

Just wanted to say I enjoyed this season because of Nick, there are few seasons where I truly enjoy getting to know one of the contestants, one contestant who surprises you, so thank you Nick, you have made this season worth while. Wish you all the best!

[umngirl]

I don't know if you guys knew this already, but I stumbled upon pics of Nick out with Nick Sutter and his friends on I believe Friday night to celebrate Nick S' birthday. It isn't the clearest pic, but I can post it if you want me to. Again, disregard this if it was already known information.

[nutty1]

Please do….thanks.
