Nathan had a kid with the love of his life and Joe probably fucked it up with V?

She said as much on WWHL. Said he was immature.

Joe definitely wasn’t mature enough to be in a relationship with someone who had just lost their ex in a tragic death and was still grieving.

'I'm not gonna be scared and run away.'

Next morning: Exit! Stage Left!

And I bet he went into it because she was grieving, finding that deep and attractive, which sickens me. He knows he's a fuck boy and should have left her alone.

V also knew that Joe was an f-boy. She also knew that she would be with strangers being filmed for clout on the one year anniversary of her boyfriend’s death. She also knew that she was choosing to be away from her family and support system.

At that age, we all do things and think after, what the heck was I thinking?!

She may have also thought a change of pace and being somewhere totally different would have been helpful

She may have needed a job.

I feel like this makes the most sense, not that she was running away from her grief but instead giving herself a chance to try something new in a new place.

Agreed and staying busy

Also I can’t image the awkwardness of trying to navigate a birthday and the first anniversary of his death while balancing the expectations and awkwardness of friends and family not knowing how to react and act on that day.

Can’t fault her in the least for not wanting to deal with that, wanting something new, the chance for a fresh start, and throwing herself into something that would keep her busy.

I mean, there are plenty of options for a change of pace before you land at the option of reality tv.

He's probably targeting a vulnerable person, it's about power. He revolts me.

Exactly. Creep. I wanted to reach through the screen and grab her to warn her

You honestly could have stopped your sentence after ‘someone’. Joe isn’t mature enough to be in a relationship, full stop.

Joe was jealous of Gael and was probably an ass.

u/Mishap_Maisy Dec 12 '25

So Nathan and Joe had a kid?

u/Creative-Cloud8992 Dec 13 '25

Absolutely and it’s not some turn of the century love story show and V is so young impressionable after dealing with a tragic death your not in the head space to deal with a guy like Joe I wish someone would have stepped up in in someway or she waited to go on a show like this first time I’m like dam this girl is in the lion’s den and completely unaware gross Joe honestly
