IMO, one who isn't getting the kind of commitment from their partner that shows the partner is fully invested.  Nikki is a planner.  JP is not.  Without a clear plan that moves a relationship forward, why would anyone give up a good job and closeness to family.  Why should Nikki move to Miami when JP hasn't even introduced her to Camilla as more than a "friend"?

I also think that fully appreciating JP's family situation, with everyone living in such close quarters, may impact the reality of what moving to Miami means.  Does it mean moving into and accepting that living situation? I would find living in the same complex with my in-laws totally unacceptable.

Thank you, exactly ^THIS!!!!!

Actually now that we have new info, a woman who already bought a house in KC without telling the one she hounded to  hear ILY from, and one who has told everyone she was going to break up with him on labour day. However there was this elaborate romantic trip to Bali (no wonder we couldnt figure out why the trip to Bali then the breakup) so she had to wait till after the trip. But then he wrote te amo in the sand, so she couldn't break up with him after that. Then she realizes ILY really isn't enough.

She needs to prioritize her life. She needs to figure out what's really important in life, because when she gets her way, she's done with it, on to the next MeNikki. I'm surprised considering her profession, she would be more adjusted and grounded when it comes to personal life outside of work.

What is the most awesome of all of this, was that the biggest issue IMO that Dr. Jenn pointed out was Nikki not discussing with JPG their problems.  Looks like that continued.  How sweet that Dick and Andi probably knew that JPG was getting dumped for a while before he did.  But wait, you have to wait to break up with him until you can get all the free perks possible.  Trip to Bali, check, world series tickets, check.  

Nikki to me is not a nice person.  TPTB you win, you really fooled me with her edit.  Congrats.  

Also, can someone tell me how a 28 year old woman's two closest friends are people she met on reality tv in the last year?

They seem happy and better off apart.    imo of course....

Sorry, but Josh should not be insulting his fiance's boyfriends or girlfriends and their significant others in the media.  He is entitled to his opinion, but he doesn't need to share it with everyone.  He, in my opinion, was a jerk to talk about JPG that way.  When Nikki and JPG were together if Nikki was important enough to Andi to be in the wedding, Josh should have been able to put his big boy panties on and deal with JPG being there.  It should be Andi's choice.  

Was it the sole cause of the break up?  Nope, but does Josh need to learn to not say every thing in his head?  Yup, again it is not just his wedding, if his fiance wants someone in their wedding, then IMO, he needs to accept their significant other coming with them.  And yes, I would say this about any one else too.

Maybe it is Andi that doesn't want the JPG there. Maybe it's because of JPG is persona non grata with the network that Andi and Josh hope to televise their wedding.

I'm so happy that the new Bachelor season will soon begin, because that means the inane excuses as to why we should feel compassion for JPG will end.

I think Juan is a great guy and so does Nikki the people that know him have never said a bad word about him.  Nikki clearly stated that  she is still very much in love with him and she knows him best.
