I'm not a fan although admit they make a cute couple. Andi said they're getting an apartment together soon but what I don't understand is why she had to quit her job if she's staying in Atlanta?

He said they werent happy with him, but he had just gotten his phone back, was just back in the states and was calling his family

They then had him watch Andi's little interview to it all and she said "she was blindsided, didnt expect it to be on national TV, but it happened,its over and it just REAFFIRMS HER DECISION WITH JOSH." The host tells Nick both Josh and Andi have called it classless. Nick says it wasn't his attention and Josh is a good guy and he's gonna support his fiance.

Back to Andi. She says she doesn't take it as shaming her on TV. She's a woman and if someone wants to air dirty laundry then its shame on them.She has a fiance who knows about the whole process.

Nick says he is glad she doesn't feel ashamed. It was a difficult situation for everyone and he wasn't trying to air dirty laundry. But when you go through a breakup like that it raises a lot of questions and doubts. It wasn't a show to him, it was real life. He said however things ended it doesn't stop him from wanting them to be happy.

Albean99,  I have heard or read interview where she has said that she is on a leave of absence until the end of the year.  I also read one where she said she was hoping to get her job back whenever everything "B" was over.  I know at my previous job, you could take a leave of absence, but you weren't guaranteed that they could hold that position for you until you came back.  The only time that I have read that she actually quit her job was when it was posted on this site and the poster didn't give how they knew that information, just acted as if it was fact.

I think maybe the ambivalence has to do with seeing what else might come from this.  Televised wedding......they have said that they're open to it and if they are truly thinking Spring wedding, I doubt that it would be wise to go back to work at the end of the year and then take off again for that (plus the planning).  I am sure that she is open to other opportunities that may be in the works or that might open up now that the season is over.  Sean quit his job when he did back to back seasons and nobody thought anything about it.  

She has said that she loves her job (I think her mother even commented the same thing on the show), but it might not be the right fit for someone starting a new committed relationship, thinking of getting married within a year and starting a family (which Josh says he would like to do "yesterday").  I have no doubt that they will make the decision together and Josh will support her, whatever is decided.

When JODI were on JKL he asked, "Do you keep the other one around for the show or what?"  At that point Andi turned to Josh and they gave each other a look but Andi replied in the appropriate manner.  IMO the look with Josh was yeah, that's it.  But again she took the high road.  She could have paid Nick back for embarrassing her by saying, yes, that's what we do.  But she didn't.

Also the Bob Beckel remark.  He said after he called her that bad name, "And she didn't even tell him."

Where did he get that information from?  According to Josh Andi told him about it.  And Andi said this in front of Josh and he agreed that she had told him.

IMO I remember the discussion on the night of the FSD with Josh that people remarked that Andi looked pensive (my word) at times on the date.  I think that was because she was with Josh and she was remembering the FSD with Nick and maybe realized she had made a bad mistake.  I truly believe that she might have even told Josh about it that night and told Josh she would understand if he didn't want to go through with it.  And I also believe that, although, Josh was probably hurt for sure, he said that didn't change his mind.  As mommamurray said Josh concentrated on what she did after he became engaged to her.  (This is all my speculation.)

On the Finale she kept saying in VO.  This whole thing could blow up in my face.  And after the engagement when Josh was carrying her away she said to Josh, thank you for sticking with me.  Maybe she was thinking that Josh might change his mind about becoming engaged because of what she had told him.

It would be interesting to hear what DocNash would think about this.

It is my belief that he who has never ever made a mistake in their life and wishes they could have a do over can speak out about the mistakes of others as much as they want.  IMO nobody would be able to speak out including me.

In one of her interviews well before the finale, she said she was going back to her job "for now". Next thing you know she resigns, something about until December. During her 'ette audition' on JPG's season, I knew right then and there, she was going to be the next 'ette and she would never go back to her ADA job. I could be wrong, but IMO she got a taste of fame, and is loving it.

I think they make a good looking couple. He's very handsome, and they look good together.

I think so too. I mean, I think she had only been working for a year when she took a leave of absence to go on the Bachelor. You can't be THAT career-focused if you basically quit your job after going to 3 years of school to get it. I think that Josh/Andi are probably going to see what opportunities there are (like SeanCat), and Andi will probably go back to her job when those opportunities have dried up.

They are a very attractive couple (although…they do look a bit like brother/sister to me). This is the only couple from the franchise who I have no opinion on whether they will make it or not. I usually feel like I *know*, but I just don't for Jodi. They do seem to fit well.
