Wow! We might agree on something. Not the cockiness part but the fake showmance until Jen appears... That part I'd buy.

I can see Ick with one of the child brides- Haley or whatever the names are and of course Amanduhhhh. Soulmate territory there.

I am wondering if he is her type who knows, from her Twitter I noticed from JoJo guys she seems to like Luke.

Nick is friends with Carly, I remember he spoke about it on afterbuzz that she has become one of her good friends so I don't see them hooking up

I don't see Nick with Amanda at all. She's pretty much the total opposite of the women he's into personality-wise. Plus he was on AfterBuzz like every other week last season and expressed no interest in her whatsoever. The only one he really seemed to like was JoJo, and he called Jen beautiful at some point.

The twins I think are in the same category for him as Ashley I. meaning he'd see them more as little sisters. He might be into younger women, but not naive and inexperienced ones. Nick may be a hopeless fameho, but he's not stupid.

Carly is definitely in the friendzone for him, since they've met before and he's referred to her as a friend.

I think Jubilee could be something of a match for him, but I don't really remember what Nick was saying about her during the season. Will be interesting to see if there's any spark there.

In any case, I highly doubt he's there to find anything serious. He just has nothing better to do these days and more exposure is surely tempting.

Do we know if Sammi Steffen is coming back? I think physically she would definitely be Nick's type.  IMO, he has an inflated sense of what he brings to the table, looks and otherwise, and tries to bat above his league. IRL, Sammi is out of Nick's reach, but we know she is quite capable of acting her lady boners. She was able to get it up on camera for Joe Bailey after all! On the other hand, if Becca were coming back I think Nick would be a born again virgin for her  #ka-ching #ka-ching Nick probably likes Carly as a friend but thinks he can do much better for himself. He wants a trophy. But he remains very strategic IMO and I agree with others who think he strives to emulate Janner from a business standpoint. He may have to sacrifice his vision of a Miss America type on his arm to get the cash flowing. He could up his stock if he held eye contact, spit out the marbles, and tried less to come off as a stud.

I don't think Kaitlyn is above anyone's league.
ME&I is a league onto herself. So--with that history, that theory does not wash with me. JMO.

I think Katelyn, Andi, and Carly are all quite pretty but each has their own issues, Andi's being her personality. Carly seems to have fixed her eyebrows but they'll never be perfect. I don't love her hair when it's too light but loved it when she went a little darker.

I don't really care who Nick is or isn't interested in but that's just me.

I want to marry this post and have its babies.

And speaking of Nicky's type, too bad Chad isn't it. Nicky is shredded like lettuce and as we saw from last nite's episode - Chad loves eating lettuce.

I think Kaitlyn was Nick lowering his fantasy ideals in order to accomplish the goal of "winning" and achieving bankability. I don't think Nick really fell in love with Kaitlyn, just MHO.

I agree, Kasha, that neither is a trophy. I used to think Nick was a unicorn. I loved him during MeAndI's season and held the torch through Kaitlyn's even though I thought he was being foolish. But now I feel foolish for ever holding him in high regard. I, like some others here who have quit him, am way way over it.

I agree with the bolded.  I don't think he fell in love with her either.

No but Nick was more than happy to pretend he was in love with Kaitlyn and play victim to her.

I wish these people had a two show maximum, all of them. Think about our three peats, Michelle Money, Erica Rose, Graham, Michael Stag, Chris Bukowski, Tenley, Nick (from Ashley's season) and Claire. Did any of them come off better on their third tries? The second tries some improved but on the third try they all came off pathetic.

Nick is not going to come out any better than any of the others.
