JMOAA 99.9% of these people reading his SM, hearing about his SM etc are going to never meet him or effect his life. 
 I would think he couldn't care less about the faceless masses regarding his own life. They aren't going to be part of his life in the 99.9% of cases. They simply don't matter, nor should they. JMO
My feeling about SM it's simply a way to express oneself like blogging, journaling etc.

I can see that, but we just heard Kaitlyn talk about how the backlash on SM was brutal. Why wouldn't Nick feel the same way when he has negative SM responses?

As opposed to who else's SM? At least he sends a tweet here and there about something other than himself or the bachelor related and not trying to sell his products/sponsored stuff. And a lot of his posts are family related... that should be a good thing no matter who the person is.

And like Kasha said, I hardly think he will convince anyone that he is a good guy by his tweeting support of Kaitlyn. And his bio profile says it all "My opinions are my own. Some like them.. some don't. Im ok with that."

^ I've read some very negative comments left at Nick's sm and as far as I know he never defends himself. To me, that means he's mature enough to understand the opinions of some nameless people will not affect him. I admire him for that. 
His own twitter profile says it all: my opinions are my own. Some agree and some don't, I am ok with it.


Eta, jinx AAL!

I should have clarified that I was talking about his posts about Kaitlyn.

We posted the same words from Nick, sdmom

And even if he does respond to negative comments, how is that different from Kaitlyn telling the one girl she is disgusted by how little followers the girl has?

Nick is a human being after all, I think he deserves at least some sort of benefit of the doubt. It is not like he has murdered someone or something. The way people act one would think he had.

Simply because they are two different people. Just as I am different than you. People react differently. The closer someone is to you, generally the more it effects us. Vice versa. Some people are born being more sensitive than others. Some people are more sensitive in certain areas and not in others. 
I don't know how to explain it.

back to you AAL!

slowly catching up on the threads, but did K really describe N as intense?!?

If you guys don't believe that her social media and interviews after the last episodes have been a bit of a diss to Nick, surely you got to think this is.....that's a total dig!! as compared to how she described the rest of the guys!

Yeah she did. I think Nick overwhelms women, they like it at first because it's fun and interesting but at the end of the day, they like the protective manly men who make them feel comfortable and comforted.

Still can be nice though...she had no problem describing the other guys with flattering words

Yeah, kindness doesn't cost anything. 
Usually when someone is not kind or nice, they're feeling backed up against a wall, feeling on the defense or feeling guilty. Unless they are just not a nice person to begin with, JMOAA.

Again this has been said many times but she is going to be giving answers that suit her purpose of protecting her current relationship. She had to think before she answered probably asking herself what word would Shawn not get his dander up over. For all we know Shawn reads or watches all her social media since he knows that is how she interacted with Nick prior to show.
