Nick the grimm did not want his future wife/mother of his children to be involved and that caused him to feel guilty and hurt their relationship. As things got more and more dangerous Juliette got more involved and it became a source of friction. Whether right or wrong, Adalind just goes along with what Nick wants. Nick the grimm cop wants his homelife to be not related to being a grimm too. So you saw a little jealousy on Nick's part? He didn't want a wife/partner who could do it all?

Nick the grimm needed the feeling of control over his role as a grimm. NBC picture showing Nick needed to control his homelife after season 4. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=...=3&theater

Hmmm, I never thought of him as the jealous type, but some of his actions could be the result of jealousy. It's certainly something to think about.

She was there for him when he got into trouble with the muse, she helped him when he got the zombie poison, she was nursing him when he was getting headaches before becoming a grimm. Unless she was working late, she was always there when he came home at night. The one thing we saw about Juliette that we have never seen with regard to Adalind, is she made dinner for Nick. Not only dinner, but his favorite dishes. If that's not evidence of caring for the man, I don't know what is. I didn't see a lot of evidence of a sizzling chemistry between them, but I got the impression that they were very good friends and in my opinion, there's not a better path to true love than being a friend when in need. Sometimes a loved one needs a friend, not a bedpal. LOL, I think you really missed the caveat: here is a male perspective. You are evaluating this from the sentient male filter, which is the standard female filter. Not the more visceral male filter. I am going through this with a buddy of mine. when he dated his now wife, he fell deathly ill. They thought he would die. She was his nurse, emptying his bedpans, caring for him, nursing him back to health. She owed him nothing the just dating when he fell ill. Eventually they married. She was the ultimate in competent wife. A good earner, a fantastic mother, a great housekeeper, meals ready when he came home, his best friend. But she is not his snuggle bunny. She does not coo around him, stroke his ego, tell him what a big strong man he is, she does not drop to her kness to pleasure him his bequest. More importantly, to a man, she does not need him, She can stand alone and it is obvious. So he is planning to leave her and their children. That is also the difference between Juliette and Adalind. Men are strange animals. Men run off with young women because of the way she makes him feel about himself. It isn't that they are young, it is the they stroke his ego. That, is the difference between Juliette and Adalind, Juliette did not need Nick, Adalind creates teh illusion that she does. If your female logic applied to men, men would not be leaving their wives for snuggle bunnies all the time. It does not make it right, but it is reality. Kindest regards, Izod
Oxford commas are so totally rad!.
It's not always a snuggle bunny a man wants. Some of them had snuggle bunnies at home, some of them have wives more beautiful than they could ever find again, some of them have wives who are perfect friends. It's just not enough. I've known a few who've left their wives as well, all of them for a younger woman. In my opinion, they left their wives because they fear death. If you notice, the older the man is, the younger the woman he seeks.

I always get a laugh out of the ones who have a vasectomy and then decide at age 50 they want another family. That's a man afraid of death right there.

That's an awfully nasty, Hexenbiest-ish thing to say. I get the impression you've been burned in the past. That's fine; I've been burned too. Sometimes I harbor a negative opinion of women, just as you harbor a negative opinion of men. Just don't let it erode your soul to the point where nobody (man or woman) wants to be anywhere near you anymore. (04-10-2017, 03:07 PM)irukandji Wrote:I think both of you are right. Juliette did take care of Nick but there was also a detachment, a sort of coldness between her and Nick that didn't go unnoticed. Adalind is only just coming into her role as Nick's partner, so she learning to take care of Nick, doing the some of the things Juliette used to do, like cook for him, look after the fome etc. She's only had this role for several months now, coming from behind, so to speak and Nick has attached himself firmly to her, and this is even more telling when barely a year ago they were still technically enemies. Izzy is right in Adalind appealing to much more to Nick's primal urges that place him in provider/protective mode. Nick was like that with Juliette but it was not without conflict, hence Nick and Juliette find themselves were they are today. He will always love Juliette but he's fallen in love with Adalind despite everything. It doesn't make sense to viewers but having watched Nick for six years straight, it was never outside of the realm of possibilities, especially if you consider that there had always been an underlying current of unspoken attraction between Nick and Adalind.(04-10-2017, 02:31 PM)izzy Wrote:(04-10-2017, 10:41 AM)irukandji Wrote: I don't think Nick will ever be over Juliette. It just means it's always going to be painful to him. If it's painful to him, shouldn't it be painful to her as well? Certainly Adalind is capable of understanding those events, right? |
