I still think Andi will maintain a little bit more tact when she sells out Josh. 

Yes she did . I will take Courtney over Andi any day she has stepped away from the limelight pretty much after her time on Ben's season. Courtney told it like it was Andi will BS her way to try once again to try to get sympathy. She did not sell out Ben just told the facts.

I guess I don't see much difference, her book came out 2 years after her season so she certainly hadn't gone 'back' to normalcy quite yet. I do agree she's kind of moved on since then but I imagine we will not be talking about Andi this much 4 years after her season and especially when her book is old news. Crazier things have happened though .

I agree. I think that if Courtney had been more popular, she would have been just as in-your-face as Andi was. She talked about how she would have happily done things like DWTS and couples therapy for $$, if it hadn't been for Ben. She also talked about how she organized pap strolls during the airing of her season. Let's not forget the whole "#redwineimfine" mess with arie. I saw a recent interview with her talking about how she was approached for a reality show, but it didn't work out. Girl is just as attention-obsessed and money-driven as Andi. 

I also don't think that there is much difference in "selling someone out" and "telling the truth". Telling the truth is how you sell people out! It's just that everyone's truth is distorted. Just like Courtney felt like Ben was an azz and she was the victim, Andi is probably going to highlight Josh's anger issues, stubbornness, lack of support, lackluster career and downplay her own faults. That's exactly what Courtney did, so I don't see any difference between the two. Except, hopefully, Andi won't brag about mastering the "reverse cowgirl".

I think you hit the nail on the head, especially with the bolded. That's exactly what I see happening, her distorting the "truth" and downplaying her own faults.  I fully expect to hear about Josh' temper and stubborness. I can see those qualities in him, so that won't shock me. But I also think her own personality "flaws" likely brought out the very worst in Josh, and I hope she takes ownership of that in her book.  I also hope she doesn't trash his career because he was the one that went back to working his real job and likely supported her all those months they were together while she lived at HIS place. Also, If there was any lack of support, I think it was mutual. She even implied that in her CH interview.  She didn't seem to like him getting involved with Advocare, and he probably just hoped she would follow through on something she started, which is something I haven't seen her do much.  So if this is going to be a raw, non sugarcoated account of their relationship/breakup, like she claims it will be, then she darn well better be introspective and call herself out on many things as well, or else this book will be more fantasy/fiction.

The end.

I won't hold my breath for any of those since Andi has not exactly shown that she is honest, cordial and most certainly not empathetic or understanding. I also doubt that she is wishing Josh (or JPab), the best. More likely waiting with baited breath for them to mess up royally. And she clearly can't move on or we wouldn't be getting the book. :strings1 Cry me a river poor, misunderstood Andi.

Exactly. She has so much potential and yet she keeps looking back in the rear view mirror. Forget the past, move on.

^^^^^^ It's tough to move on when she's living in her past every day while writing this book. She might consider it closure in some way, but I don't see how spending the better part of a year reliving a breakup is healthy for anyone.

Andi just makes me sad. Most of these people aren't blessed with the abilities Andi has. They do this show and make the most of what they can be. Andi could be so much more, instead she just wants to be the next Kim Kardashian and just be famous for being famous. Such a waste. She has the pretty package, the smarts and she just acts like a waste of oxygen.

Wonder if she'll chime in on the Nick and Josh bromance.

If course she will with her not so subtle shade

Andi, I'm waiting for your tweet, don't let us down .

Right??

My psychic powers predict a lot of favoriting of "Andi needs a man who will always have her back. She's so much better off without that traitor!" and "the company you keep says a lot about you" tweets and a super subtle tweet of "Sometimes you need time to see one's true colors #blessingindisguise."

It's a good thing she's in ATL. Maybe she has enough sympathetic ears around to keep her off Twitter.

I don't follow her, but went to look to see if she tweeted anything. Something else I noticed, just an observation really - she has quite the following on Twitter and Instagram. Most of her posts lately have very few responses, compared to other people with the same following. Has her popularity faded that much? How can she have that big a following when there is little to no interest?

^^^ Perhaps she purchased her followers. You can on Instagram, I am not sure about Twitter.
