Please note this is not an attack on you/your opinion, but genuine curiousity!
What makes you think Niomi is better than Bradley? What makes you think that Niomi is worthy of someone "better" (else/different)? We have all seen her real character the last 2 years and what can I say... It is extremely ugly. I don't really understand what makes her a better person than Bradley. Why do you feel sorry for Niomi? I am absolutely by far not a Bradley fan, but to me they seem similar and on the same level.. and that is not a compliment for either one of them.
I’m not saying one is better than the other. I’m saying she’s settling.
in an ideal world, niomi wants someone like Joe - driven, wealthy, handsome, upper middle class family, instagrammable etc. I was never a huge fan of joe but he does have a certain quiet dignity to him. He doesn’t feel the need to splash his life online for validation for one. He ticks all the boxes Niomi could ever want. And when looking for a partner, for niomi it *is* a box ticking exercise. It isn’t about genuine connection.
Bradley doesn’t quite fit that criteria. He’s instagrammable but he doesn’t quite have the polish Joe does.
but he’ll do. He ticks enough boxes, so niomi will make do with him, even though they clearly bring out the worst in each other, mirror the worst qualities the other has and have no true emotional connection.
Sometimes I feel envious of niomi - there are days I wake up and wouldn’t mind just having a Dior bag delivered to me free of charge before I wander aimlessly around london for the day. Some days I despise her for representing literally everything that is wrong with the modern world and white, middle class privilege. Most days I feel sad for her, at how clueless and lost she is. So I
do think she deserves better than Bradley.
I think she deserves allowing herself some honesty; about her unhealthy eating, about her lack of any real direction or passion in life. About her unhealthy obsession with outward appearances and how this has created a total inability to truly connect with anyone or to truly live her life authentically.
I think we all deserve a real, loving emotionally connection with someone but to get that we all need to be willing to be honest, vulnerable and to hold ourselves accountable to ourselves. Niomi doesn’t do any of the latter and so is stuck in her shell of a life, making the best of it that she can. Settling.
I hope these two move to Australia and stay there forever. The farther the better.
