IMO this is definitely true. After episode 3 she was smitten and confident and she acted like there was no one else.  Now, I think that is because Nick told her to "follow your heart" and "stay out of your head."

I also think this is why she did not become best friends with those in the house.

Yes, Skates!
Mgrissom, definitely agree her one-on-one cemented things. Regardless of what he said, the fact that he shared his vulnerability and cried with her was game over for me.

 he needed to know how she would respond to his vulnerable side and she IMO had her pre-show impressions of him verified - her intro package where she said she liked that he was close to family and could show vulnerability.  
On the plane Nick learned that she welcomed his want to take care of a woman and he told her directly at dinner that he liked that.
I wouldn't call their relationship "love at first sight" because V's sister said V is usually analytical and we know Nick is.  I think it is more a case of a REO Speedwagon duet of "Can't fight this feeling".

maybe a bit of both? didn't he say a number of times at her HTD he was smitten the minute he saw her?

Nick has really good exs.... let's not forget, one even agreed to appear on the show this season.

@SueSt 2, one just got paid (my guess)

^^ yes, likely, but they still seemed to have a very cordial relationship.

IMO in the gifs Vs lipstick is a different colour when she accepts the rose? Seems strange?

Yeah, it looks a little different but I guess it could be the light?
