Hi New Guy-
Your first question is a good one and I also wondered why Nick didn't simply tell Juliette to leave. Nick really comes down to being an inconsistent character. He blindly embraces the grimm life after wise old Aunt Marie instructs him about his misfortune, but completely ignores her when she tells him to get rid of Juliette.
I don't see Nick as a man blinded by love. If he was, his whole affect toward Juliette would be completely different. And as we saw how readily he embraced the grimm lifestyle, it's apparent he never considered Juliette the highlight of his life.

My answer would be that the hexenbiest personality was the false one simply because there was another entity at work there.

I'm not condoning Juliette's actions one bit. However, in my opinion, Nick should have given a great deal more leniency to her. After all, it was the spell to cure him that she was helping with. Nick never bothered to research the so called side effects from the spell. Nor did he ever wonder just how far Juliette would go as a hexenbiest.
Adalind's actions in attempting to take Aunt Marie's life resulted in her dying sooner than if the cancer would have claimed her. Yet Nick never weighs the impact of Adalind's actions.
His treatment of the two women is very strange indeed. Juliette helps him with a spell and ends up being a target of his wrath. Again, I'm not condoning what she did, but there were extenuating circumstances involved in her transformation. Adalind has no such excuse. She contributes to the early death of his aunt, and the most Nick does is remove her hexenbiest powers and send her off to live another day. It's a very imbalanced view which really makes no sense for his character.

N G
Some of the things I saw in season 5 led me to believe that Adalind was destined to once again become the bad girl. I also think the series was leaning toward a Nick and Juliette pairing.
However, I would definitely prefer to see your version of Nick, the lone wolf grimm.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
