And she's getting her official scoobie membership card by wanting to go into the mirror after Eve last week and wanting to go in after Nick and Eve this week.
I don't have said she isn't a member of the scoobie gang. It was nice that she wanted to go with them. But Nick doesn't wanted it. I like Adalind actually. Not so much as Juliette/Eve but I like her. I just have a problem with "Nadalind" itself. The relationship isn't healthy. For both of them. Special Not Nick.
I have to tell you, Tara: I really like reading your perspective on Nick and Adalind. I originally was inclined to agree with you, but then I also took the outlook that Adalind and Nick deserved one another. I have since paid much closer attention to Adalind and I like her outlook on putting her children first. It seems for all intensive purposes that she was intent on doing just that. However, particularly with regard to this season, it seems she puts Nick first more often than her children.
My impression of the living arrangements is that Adalind has not positively changed from living with Nick. He hasn't encouraged her to think for herself beyond the box, so to speak. In other words, he's content having her there, this mousy little person who isn't going to cause him any problems.
One thing I noticed and I don't know if it's happened more than once, but it did happen during last week's episode. Monroe made some kind of off the wall comment about Eve and Nick being together. The camera quickly panned to Adalind, who clearly was not happy with Monroe's comment. Monroe quickly changed the comment to past tense.
From Adalind's point of view, this has to be something that sticks in her craw. After all of this time, some of the scoobies still look upon Nick and Juliette/Eve as a couple.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
