There hasn't been a continuous proposal rejection, though. Nick proposed once. And Juliette, being the incredibly wise, amazing woman that she is, gave the right response to that. You don't get engaged to someone who's keeping secrets from you.
Nick's comments to her in the finale were not a proposal. It was him talking *about* the fact that he had been planning to propose -- not at all the same thing. I don't think he intended it to pass for a proposal, either -- I certainly hope he wouldn't choose a moment that terrible to pop the question. In that case, I'd say the continuous problem is more Nick not having the sense to know when it's absolutely the wrong time to propose than Juliette turning him down.
I don't want to see Juliette go anywhere -- she's my favorite character on the show, and has been for quite a while. But I almost feel like I'd like to see her call Nick on all his B.S. There was a time when I couldn't imagine the show with them not together, but Nick has spent some serious time getting on my nerves since then. He takes his loved ones for granted, and he can be incredibly cowardly about facing up to difficult personal situations. I kind of feel like I want him to grow up and get his act together before they take the next step. (I want to see him grow up and get his act together for his character in general, but also for him and J.)
