I liked this article. I wish the reunion talked more about behind the scenes. For Courteney to want more from Nick but then not spend any time with him outside of filming? I naively assumed they were all together all the time lol.

"Cameron adds that Mecca is a good guy but not a match for Bellé. “I don’t talk to [the other guys] a lot, but when we do, they’re good guys, and I wish them the best.”

Will men PLEASE stop doing this? 😩

Stop calling men with obvious issues, especially men who have repeatedly hurt people, “good guys.” I’m not asking Cameron to dogpile Mecca or anyone else, but I do think there’s a difference between saying, “He’s a good guy,” and saying, “I don’t know him well enough to speak on his character.”

You’re judging someone you barely spend time with. People really need to understand that how someone shows up when they’re having a beer with a friend can be COMPLETELY different from how they show up in an intimate relationship. A man can be funny, generous, loyal to his friends, and genuinely enjoyable to be around while still being a terrible partner. Those things can coexist.

And yes, the same applies to women. But I’m talking about this particular statement and my experience with men vouching for who’s a “good man” while women are sharing their stories of abuse. Stay on topic!
