Now Alanna, no one has accused that he eats children for breakfast.  He has shown a temper on the show, he has shown possessiveness on the show.  It isn't like people are picking up on nothing, he has acted this way, I don't think it is the only way he acted but he did do these things and he did also et upset about Jared, so no it wasn't just about Nick.  So why is it so horrible for people to question if what we are being shown about Shawn on the show is genuine or not?

People do the same thing with Nick.  I have read in the last day that he is a narcissist, he is manipulative, even that somehow he was the one to initiate the sex with Kaitlyn.  So it is going both ways.  And some of us have reached out to Nick's family, we have talked with them.  Nick is a really great person in real life and yet, he is still just referred to be many as what his edit shows.  Yes, Nick came back for Kaitlyn, but before that he disappeared for a year, he didn't pursue the fame that the last lead and her F1 did.

So since people keep just judging Nick on his edit, and not what we have been told by those who really know him, is it really that unfair to question Shawn?

No one has posted about the children eating yet but he's already a threatening borderline Kaitlyn-beater so I assume the kicking puppies and stealing candies from babies up next here in the pipeline.

So many sound bites that would be misconstrued and used against me. I know this. ... and I'm a sweet lady  with an artistic temperament and quirky temperament. LOL. So, in view of this, I have all kinds of acceptance and grace towards the poor misunderstood and vilified people on reality TV. I kind of like Nick and Shawn, these ragamuffins and orangatangs ...

isittrue wrote:Some excellent posts avoice and blu.  Chiming in that I seriously hope Shawn's family does not read boards posting about his possessive behavior and crazy eyes.  I did not like reading bad things about Nick last year and I don't feel good about reading them this year about Shawn, Kait or Nick personally.
