Okay, let's accept your premise above. Now does that sound more like two teenagers practicing their Night Moves in the trustywoods in the sweet summertime or the basis of a mature adult loving relationship?
It is the former as you indicated, a magnetic attraction - zap, lightning in a bottle. There is world of difference between love and lust, it is nice when they end up coinciding, but rather rare. And for these two, no way. Seriously, either of them would have to be a special type of idiot to ever trust the other.
In reality, at best, Adalind got to play the equivalent of adult dress-up for a few weeks and experience that which would likely forever be denied her in the future and maybe, just for a moment, she got caught up in the fantasy and said "I love you" but that is all it could ever be: a fantasy; Nick,who probably was the guy who got swirlies in the locker room in high school got to boink the equivalent of the head cheerleader a couple of times. He scored well above his grade.
It will give give them somewhat of pleasant memory to reflect on as they move on with their lives.
This is not a match made in heaven so much as it is matched forged in the fiery pits of hell.
Okey, I think you have written close to your former post to which I replied. I will paste quote again... but first...
Some are looking at the Nick Adalind relationship build because of the time limit.
I look at it this way, Juliette and Nick were together for years, I believe 7 years and their relationship failed. Mostly because they both stepped into the super natural world which created doabts, uncertainty, fear, friction.
Now regarding Adalind and Nick, in my opinion their love/relationship is more like a new flower blossoming to be better and stronger than his/her former love life.
As you watch S5, their relationship begins to mould stronger in a more matured manner, patience, approach, experience within the super natural world they live. Granted, they still have work to do, but they both are drawn together to make this work and they show it. It is slow but they show it even their trust.
It is now left to see how their love character grows together in S6 more than it was in S5 relationship and family wise with responsibilties.
We do not need 3 or 4 more years of Grimm to know for sure that both of them are truly in love with each other.
The both of them have passed that stage of fantasy and lust they had from S1 to S4 in their own way. Much of thier fantasy and lust made them both have regretes and major lose.
So I beleive I would say yes, they are handling this maturely.

When did Adalind start to fall in love
Uh, that would be never. Apparently there is a backstory that when she was young she may actually have built sandcastles in the sky and fell in love with Renard, but with NIck????? LOL...no way. You have two choices either she is emotionally retarded and can not differentiate love form friendship or a relationship of convenience or a contrived relationship or you have to conclude she is playing him. I suspect the latter, as she is a hexenbiest.
I mean how long has Nick and Adlind actually been together? Do you know mid 30s people who fall in love in a few weeks or months?
Consider Adalind was worried what Nick might do if she was a hexenbiest again. Do you really fall in love with a guy like that after you have been used by a guy like Renard, used by the Royals?
Nick and Adlind may(as some of you seem to think) have waned each other sexually since they first saw each other but hat is not love, it is lust. Some people are together long enough for the lust to evolve into love.
Adalind would have to be an idiot to fall in love that quickly, it seems far more in keeping in character for her to be manipulating the siltation to her and her child's advantage.
I just do not see adults falling love over such a contrived, trivial set of circumstances. I can see f _ _ _ buddies easily, but to mistake sex out of convenience with love...???? It is not believable to me.

My reply:
you could be right, then again, you could be wrong.
how about this for thought....
this is a start of a new love blossoming to be better than the old love.
yes, juliette and nick were together for a long time, but it didnot work out at the end, thier life changes was all new to them causing lots of friction and doubts.
now with adalind, this could become a stronger love, better relationship, better understanding, more matured to the supernatural world they live in.
I understand it not long in years as was with juliette, but as adalind and nick relationship went through S5 and soon through S6, could be shown as their relationship gets stronger/ brighter and a fitting pair than his former.
We do not need 5 more new seasons just to know if they are the fitting pair with strong love. I guess it will take the characters to show more how strong their bond is in one more season, remembering though they have gone through almost 1 year together.
