I still find that she just didn't seem to have any real passion for him. Whether the general "blah" vibe was mutual or not, the two characters simply didn't register as an authentic couple. The fact that the actors are supposed to be dating in real life strikes me as ironic because onscreen their relationship comes across as forced.
i personally think the only reason Juliette and Sean seemed better was the way it was written, trying to show us the effects of the spell, altho they do mention the spell only works if there was feelings there before
the spell used caused them to have feelings that would turn into a passion they were unable to control and would only grow, the only way to show us that was to have them doing wild heat of the moment type things that we never saw nick and juliette do, like toss eachother around while in the middle of a make out session, showing up to see one another with a look of pure passion and take me now in their eyes
i seen someone else said it in another post, i don't know if they tried to hard or not hard enough but the Nick/Juliette relationship just seemed like a form of filling, they never found a way to truly make Juliette part of his new Grimm world, she was just someone we dealt with when he got home, or someone who got in a jam and needed saving, the only time i truly saw her as Not a Damsel in distress was once she became a Hexenbeast and that was actually the moment she needed his help the most
