Big Hair Don't Care,   Vanessa looks happy IMO.

she does look happy, just the conversation they had in the hot tub doesn't look like it went well bc he says he's not traditional.

Vanessa comes from an italian family and I can relate with her.

Hopefully all questions have been answered and she felt special again.

@happygolucky Congrats on the next chapter of your life! Hope it's all you want/need it to be!

Regarding your post above, I would include that I think TPTB added to Vanessa's heaviness, not just Nick and the situation. I feel like their "whisperings" in her ear have been "loud and clear" lately. How else do you explain her giant mood swings from the actual interactions of the date and her ITMs. I believe her questioning of her father regarding the number of "father's blessing" given was producer driven. Maybe I'm wrong, but it all felt too convenient to get that footage. I think "someone" is "encouraging" her to not feel special.

What does tradional mean?
Vanessa:
Women keep their birth surname when married as per French Canadian tradition.
Divorce occurs despite Catholic upbringing.
Vanessa is typical of her generation having pursued a variety of careers and has lived outside the community she was raised in.
Vanessa's mom said they need to make each other happy and make decisions together revealing the value of partnership.
Men in Vanessa's family cook - grandpa and brother shown doing so on old IG posts.

Nick:
His oldest sister Jessica and soon Maria marry in their 30s.
Maria officiated at Jessica's wedding - not in a church.  None of Sarah's wedding photos were of a church either.  Nick's parents are Catholic, he attended a Catholic high school, and Nick does attend service (he posted about it after A's season, Brian posted about Nick, Josh, and he attending a few services while in Italy).
Nick could be perceived as having nontraditional views (as in nonconservative) however these views may be family held: identifies self as a feminist, supports right of gay/lesbian marriage, supports abortion rights.  

IMO "traditional" is a vague term.  Looking forward to how they will bring clarity for each other on this topic.
