He'll never get over Andi sleeping with Nick and everyone knowing about it. I think his two year grudge against Nick has everything to do with that.

Staph Josh!

Josh Allan Murray ✔ @JoshAllanMurray
Bahahahaha that whole nick vs me talk when I returned from my date was cut up so much, cracks me up if y'all only knew what was said

^^ I agree @bluwavs. But this is precisely why I think he is truly a tool and an idiot. He signed up for The Bachelorette. It's been on for 15 years. Research what you are getting into, nimrod.

Sorry double post. One last thought and I'm done. You know it's BAD when of the 3 engaged couples, freaking Lace and Grant seem like the most promising, stable match.

Stop tweeting Josh! Ugh I can't believe I feel for his charm 2 years ago. Knew this is how he would react. "I don't hold grudges" bull crap you've had one for Nick over 2 years and Andi over a year!!

Well then tell us all about that conversation, Josh. Actually don't. It's much more fun for me to guess. Nick was instigating you and you were completely blameless. Also editing. Am I right?

The HUGE difference between Josh and Nick is that Nick has self awareness, Josh doesn't. I don't care about 'edits' when it's clear that Andi's book holds some truth to it. Josh is looking like an idiot with control issues, which he isn't admitting. Nick just looks like a reality star who can laugh at himself.

It's glaring when tge whole cast and 99% of viewers are #teamNick.

I just don't like Carly. Or Leah. Can't wait for Caila to arrive.

Josh is another perfect example of the fake high road bs. Also grown azz men don't need to subtweet and hashtag blessed all day while fav'ing passive aggressive tweets and throwing shade on periscope, all the while avoiding having to take responsibility for any of his own actions

So Josh is still bitter that Andi slept with Nick. IMO that's what it all boils down to. It's hilarious and sad at the same time. And Nick is getting the redemption edit Josh wanted, with Josh left to pettily subtweet and lay out the excuses.

I always thought he had some semblance of consideration but the hilarious thing about it is that it's obviously coming out that it's both of them together not just MeAndi who was this way. MeAndi was also exactly like that - she always has to win and have the upper hand - she was passive aggressive and always the victim. I don't see how either of them have changed because neither show any self-awareness whatsoever since being on this show (you'd think going on a tv show would make you aware of all your flaws)!

This. Josh just can't let his image be tarnished.

Of course the show is going to edit the Josh/Nick drama to make it seem as unhealthy as possible.  I am guessing the edit did make it seem worse than it really was.  But.. they always do that.  Josh and Nick have been around each other many times, they are all just playing the roles assigned to them.  However, I do think it is possible to meet someone and actually like them and have a real relationship.  (Tanner and Jade)  I think we need to keep watching to really get the Josh and Amanda story.   TPTB are just plain mean in my view.  I hope they actually like each other.   They seem better suited to really have a relationship than Amanda and Nick anyway.
