I don't think he said anything about the shirt.  Regarding the alone time, I think Joe brought it up after Nick was talking about his first one-on-one with Kaitlyn  

Along the lines of the guys noticing things: Does anyone remember anyone saying anything to Nick about the Claddagh ring he was wearing after his 1-1 in Dublin? He wore his just about every day after that, but Kaitlyn did not.

TBH I am not sure guys pay attention to those type of things. They probably had no idea what the ring symbolized, just thought it was funky jewelry imho.

It was so not cute and those bracelets he wore, even to the frc is another, "no please stop torturing me" eye sore. Ugh.

I have 3 sons in the 21-31 age range - bracelets are very "in" right now, as are rings. Even the son who is a manager at a 5 star hotel wears them. Guess it is just a still thing. Doesn't bother me!

I guess Nick can't win.

Loved the bracelets he wore to the FRC.

I was so obsessed about those bracelets last year. Memories...

[GuardianAngel]

My son too who is business casual or wears a suit everyday wears them all the time.

Exactly. So why bother to try to please everyone? #beyou

Puka shell necklaces were popular for young guys once, too.   Just don't show up to propose to me in one.

I have sons that same age range and they wear them as well. I personally know several men 50 to 70 who are wildly successful and also wear them.  Lots of women wear them too.  They are very popular these last few years. ITA #beyou

I don't think Kaitlyn cared at all about Ben H. If Shawn's roommate had been Kupah or heck, the devil himself, she would have happily spent those 6 hours with him too just so she could snuggle up in a bed with Shawn.

I think that everyone knew that Shawn was the frontrunner and they were all okay with it. Nick even said "all the guys are like, Shawn's the frontrunner, Shawn's the frontrunner. It's like they are okay with being second". I think that was exactly it - they knew that Shawn had it in the bag, so all they cared about was making it as far as they could for more screentime, chance at BIP, and possibly the Bachelor gig. Even Jared, who I think was the only other guy besides Shawn and Nick truly falling for her, probably knew that he wasn't going to win. I think that's probably why Shawn hated Nick so much; Nick was the only one who wasn't just going to settle for second place. He was playing the game to win it, and Shawn didn't like the idea of having real competition. JMO!

Good thing Nick won then - because the real prize is a ticket to freedom via F2, imho.
