The sad part is that Andi comes across as though she is the only one in this universe. I was hoping to see her redemptive qualities emerge by the end of this but even the last episode which was heartbreaking has not seemed to soften her. IMO of course.

IA how can someone be concerned that they are always happy? she's worried that Josh is always happy

Its ridiculous. She worries about the craziest things.

How can she be taken seriously when she worries about Josh being "too" positive and Nick being too serious which he clearly isn't ? She's a strange one.

Yup, she really turned me off this week.

She turned me off last season. ugh.

She got from Chris what Emily was looking for from Sean - him consoling her.
Plus she got Chris to admit that they would not be a good idea instead of being upfront with him and pulling the plug. She manipulated that whole situation so well.
Poor Chris.

I'm a bit floored at how clear it was for me during that sit down with CH -- thinking back it was similar in all the sit downs with CH - i think i was giving her the benefit of the doubt and wanting to see something more when there isn't but also seeing how controlled she was with Josh when he was professing his love -- IF she was indeed wanted it to be him and was ready to fall in love with him it didn't even look like she'd inched her way close until he gave her his full confession (emotions/vulnerabilities wise)... and for her to keep on being giddy at the idea of two guys proposing to her when she knows one will end in heart break is just ridiculous to me esp with her possibly knowing which way she's leaning...i find it quite callous...

I really hope that she is crying in that scene because she let Nick go early. No need to humiliate him further.
