Nope, nothing about religion - not even a word on it. She's too busy talking about sex and wine.Mustang19 wrote:This is a really stupid question because I never believed she shared any of Josh's faith, but does she talk about religion or if that was or wasn't a part of their relationship?

wouldn't this going to sleep with Nick after the break-up be a way of getting back at #26 seeing #25 played a big part in causing the break-up according to her. IMO, in her messed way of seeing things, entertaining the thought would be her way of sticking it to #26 so to say but I think #26 was done with the relationship by then.reason wrote:lleyki wrote:StationWagon wrote:I thought Nick's way of wording the question was lighthearted, cute, and funny.

I agree. Didn't this also supposedly happen while they were getting it on because it also sounds a like a bit of dirty talk to me and *shrugs* I don't see the big deal with some dirty talk between two adults. Honestly, sounds to me like Andi didn't have much she could throw at Nick, since clearly judging by her random thought of maybe sleeping with him again, the sex was clearly good.A part of Andi did want to see where things would go with Nick. Why else would she go to his apartment by herself question
She could have just given Nick her phone number and said to call JMO
Wait, she went to his apartment - like after the season and after the breakup with Josh? Was this when she was in Chicago visiting Christy?
Yes Yes after breaking up with Josh.
Did I read here that she admitted to stalking #26 on SM as well, so she really did hack into that poor man's sm account then that she vehemently denied, wow, just wow.

Also a discussion of religion might lead to her having Josh, the Christian, give up one of the two big Christian holidays with his practicing family to spent it in Vegas with her very non believing family. That doesn't support her being a poor abused, mistreated woman so it has to stay out of the book. Remember, by late December of 2014 she was supposed to be so beat down by Josh she couldn't stand up for herself, just like real sufferers of emotional abuse. Which is not what we saw.
I don't think Josh is easy or blameless. He is probably self centered and as Kasha likes to say like a box of rocks. I just don't think he was totally at fault. I don't call it emotional abuse, because to me that indicates that one person has all the power and most of the aggression and abuse. I would say they were in a toxic relationship, two people who once had feelings of love but are both such alpha control freaks that they basically drove each other into misery and disgust. I think they were probably both yellers and both at some points were solely aggressive and at others had knock down drag out fights. Toxic and maybe jointly abusive, but I doubt she was a lone scared victim. JMO.
BTW, I do think Josh probably did want her to have his values, and yes maybe that was old fashioned, but I don't blame him for that. I marriage between two people with shared values tends to be stronger. The key to me, is the lack of honesty. If she didn't really share those values admit it and if the relationship doesn't work because of that, it is sad, but you move on. I don't blame him for wanting that, most people do. It is like the lie about sleeping with Nick (I refuse to use her stupid numbers), had she told the truth and Josh dumped her, I would have been on her side. Because at that point she was not committed to Josh and if he could not let that go it would be his fault. But by lying she forever made her sleeping with Nick a huge betrayal and a big sign of a lack of honesty and trust. And because she has absolutely no self awareness she continues to believe that the problem was solely the sex instead of understanding that her lie made it something truly toxic and not just about sex. Again JMO.

The snippets seem to make the book seem almost stream-of-conscious with a bunch of stuff that makes me feel sympathetic for Andi, a ton that makes her seem incredibly shallow/materialistic, and other stuff that is just straight bizarre.

Big: You know, Manhattan has a lot of beautiful women.
Carrie: What an amazing observation!
Big: But the thing is, after awhile, you just wanna be with the one who makes you laugh.

I am not outraged by Andi's book, it doesn't surprise me. I haven't liked her since she appeared on screen, so this just adds to the character she displays. What I think is wrong is that she is accusing people publically of things that can't be taken back - things that should be private. When you have no job and you need money, I guess you will do whatever to make a buck and get a few "you go girl" pats on the back. I have ZERO sympathy for her. Andi writes a trashy book and gets kudos. If one of the guys did that, they would be crucified.

Bolded - Yup I said exactly that upthread somewhere.
Now even a slight response from any of her ###s is going to make them feel bad all the while she can and is saying what she likes.
Complete double standard. IMO.

She also tries her best to appear like all of this fell into her lap, everyone - even her badass bosses were excited for her, she was coaxed by friends to go to the casting call, she didn't mean to go and subconsciously drove to the location. She was skeptical and couldn't believe it all, blah blah blah. Yeahhhh.

I agree with you, Alanna. I am shocked I find while reading this I don't hate Andi. She's by far my least favorite Bachelorette, and even writing this in the first place is tacky as crap. But ... I don't know. I find her kind of self deprecating and I'm not totally hating her. It's complicated! If even 5% of what she says about Josh is true (and I tend to say, yes), well... gross. I don't know. They were obviously toxic together.
Bleu- - YES! Get out of my head (per usual lately! ). I gave Andi a major side eye too about how she just *fell* into this franchise. She didn't know anything about it, didn't want to "lose her dignity" to do it, but everyone kept forcing her into it. Yeah freaking right! This isn't just an Andi problem, but so many formers are like "people nominated and begged me to do it! I didn't know what it was!" BS!!!!! If they didn't want to be cast, THEY WOULDN'T BE CAST!!!
