Niomi Smart #8 Joey bails, smart skin fail, pahhhfect life won't get you sales

[orangeandsoda]

@orangeandsoda did you see her face? The coat does look like the long caramel coat she has, but the hair seems to dark, since she now has some highlights in it. And too long.

Oh, Niomi. She's such bad company, she can't stand to be on her own for 2 months.

Yes - I was walking towards them. We made awkward eye contact (I was trying to figure out who she was, realised, then quickly averted my eyes) and walked straight past. Hair was definitely the same length, (a beautiful bouncy blow dry and the coat matches the Instagram one too.

Again, apologies for the terrible quality photo but felt a bit odd jogging to catch up with them again and taking a closer shot. I too would be slightly sceptical but I honestly wouldn’t post if I wasn’t sure it was her.

But she did a video asked her best friend to be her bridesmaid... doesn’t make any sense.

Ah yes you’re right. I forgot about that

Anyway, it’s great if she can move on so quickly but like others here have said, I could never do that

Also I still firmly believe that Joe called it quits and no one cheated. I think it was just lockdown and spending too much time with someone so different from him.

To be fair, I have male friends who are real gents. After a break-up, they show up. They know there's a void, and for a time, they're more affectionate and caring than usual, and walking arm in arm or hand in hand is an extension of that kindness. Props to all the sweet boys out there. You make heartbreak bearable.

I firmly believe Niomi is a woman who wants to be married and at least in the process of starting a family, before she turns 30.Of course she wasn't going to hang around after her engagement ended.She wants a man, and fast.

Does Niomi have a friend like that ? If she did wouldn’t we all know by now because she puts everything on YouTube ( for the most part )

May be it’s her new boyfriend. For the first time in few days she didn’t post shy stories ( busy ? )

Plus does everyone remember her story on Wednesday asking something about is it only Wednesday yet or can’t wait for the weekend ( not sure exactly what she wrote but something on that lines ?) May she wanted it to be weekend because you know

lol battersea, i wonder if niomi asked her tinder date from the night before if he'd be down to hold hands and go for a totally not suss stroll to fulham to run into joe to show him her yoga teacher studio

Curious to know , anyone who is vegan/vegetarian, would you be okay with having meat etc at home for a partner (if they bought and cooked it obviously) or would it be difficult?
[/QUOTE]
I'm vegan and my bf is not. I let him eat whatever he wants because it is my choice to be vegan and I do not want to force him to be plant based if he doesn't want to. I make him vegan food, but he always has the option of adding animal products if he wants. He's become more plant based the longer we've been together, but I never restrict him from eating what he wants like Niomi did with Joe.

Sorry I know it’s super obvious, but we are 100% sure the guy isn’t Joe? No chance they are back together?

 

[lilamay]

I cannot believe her post for Mental Health Day. Completely focused on herself, on how she's helped herself in her amazing 'self-love journey', with no thought towards helping and being there for others. She gives some vague, generic advice and links to Mind but made no reference to their actual campaign. Accompanied by a selfie of course.

 

[kalechips]

To each their own but I can't help but think that people who jump from one serious relationship to the next without a real gap in between are oftentimes people who are either deeply insecure or people are very conflict avoidant and can't be alone with their thoughts or lean into any feelings of discomfort or sadness...Of course this isn't always the case but I feel like Niomi's toxic positivity might put her into that category. For her own sake I wish she'd allow herself to feel sad and depressed so she can probably move on in a healthier way when the time is right.

 

[cosmicodone]

Perhaps she thought she wouldn’t get spotted outside of NH? I see Joe and Dianne running/walking there all the time so was an interesting change to see Niomi.

lol battersea, i wonder if niomi asked her tinder date from the night before if he'd be down to hold hands and go for a totally not suss stroll to fulham to run into joe to show him her yoga teacher studio

how is no one talking about how absurdly and embarrassingly sus it is that she was out holding hands with a man ACROSS LONDON NOT EVEN CLOSE TO WHERE SHE LIVES AND VERY CLOSE TO WHERE JOE LIVES?????? I would bet any amount ofmoney she skimmed through her DMs and found the hottest guy she could and demanded they go out & is trying her absolute damndest to be spotted by Joe. the level of pathetic this is getting is literally OUT OF CONTROL. and I dont think cheating was involved in any way. not her, not him. I just think her ego is so bruised from the sudden dumping that she is reacting this way.

if she wasn't parading around 40 minutes away from where she lives, I'd defend the quick rebound, but this is too obvious. I know that after 2 of my super serious relationships ended before my now lifelong one, I was in bed & holding hands with suckers who I knew always liked me (not proud of this scummy behavior at all) & letting them lavish me with affection bc I was in so much pain. I did this process almost faster than Niomi is doing it, but i will say this - all it did was make me miss my ex more & have a far worse breakdown. I feel like watching Niomi right now is killing me bc I GET IT but NO ONE IS TELLING HER NOT TO DO IT.

I was already expecting a full blown breakdown (maybe in the form of a LONG mysterious absence from social media) from Niomi already, but now I think that inevitable breakdown will be much worse. who the duck thinks they can run away from the pain of a broken engagement? IT'S COMIN' NIOMI. YOU'RE THE ROADRUNNER AND THAT HEARTBREAK IS WILEY COYOTE. EVEN IF IT GETS AN ANVIL TO THE HEAD, IT WILL GET YOU AND ANNIHILATE YOU.

Does anyone else think it's ALSO really weird for this "new guy" (hand-holding-guy) to be dating someone who has just called off an engagement??!! Like to already be walking around, holding hands with someone who's just ended an !!ENGAGEMENT!!?! Not just somebody who has broken up with someone they were casually seeing for a month... someone they were with for YEARS, lived with, moved to India with(/for), were engaged to be "together forever" with?! Like whaaaat. ?!?!?! If I were him (anonymous hand-holder, lol) I'd find it so so weird and defs too soon to be committing to someone so fresh out of an engagement. If I met someone who had just ended an engagement, someone who has obviously gone through a massive breakup (even if Niomi tries to downplay it), I'd be like "you probably need to be single/alone for a while before you become serious with someone again" ... like it would just play on my mind a lot that this person just a month ago was intending to marry someone else... wtfff. The hand holding has completely thrown me!!

 

[Swipeupyouguys]

Well, she is an adult she can choose how she moves on and no one can tell her how to do it. Shagging around, immediately moving onto another serious relationship where they spend 24 hours a day together or earing pints of vegan ice cream in bed and not washing for three weeks straight. She will do whatever she wants and as a financially independent adult she can.

I agree with whoever said heartbreak is coming, she is just putting off the inevitable. A week of crying at home isn't enough. Great if it was! She isn't done grieving it yet.

 

[lemonlime]

I think she's just one of those people who hates being single.

I completely agree with you on this. Whether or not the people who just ended a relationship think it, you're emotionally vulnerable so soon after a separation and jumping into another relationship is not a healthy way of coping
(Obviously I'm not saying this applies to everyone, but I think for Niomi it does!!)

Only yesterday I was asked by someone who is just starting the divorce process if they could kiss me. I said no and explained why. Felt bad about it but I really do think I wouldn't be helping him if I said yes!

Sorry to ramble. I'm as surprised as other people are about Niomi if this is her!

Maybe the new guy doesn't know that Niomi has just got out of an engagement. I suppose it is possible he doesn't know, either she hasn't said or he hasn't seen her socials. Depends how they met maybe.

But yeah it feels odd to be hand holding someone so fresh out of a relationship. It must be obvious that she isn't over it properly no matter what she says.

 

[Libertine1975]

I think this seems very quick for a new relationship too. I've actually had a similar conversation with my family as last year my sister broke up with her partner of around 5 years. I think they broke up in July and by September she was seeing someone new. My sister hasn't discussed it with us but I think the relationship has been rocky for around a year before they broke up so they have probably both checked out before the relationship actually ended. I still think she has moved on a bit quickly.

The problem with Niomi is she made this big deal of having a perfect relationship and when her and Joe suddenly broke up and she didn't address it for a month of course there was speculation as to what happened. She is perfectly entitled not to give a blow by blow account of the demise of the relationship but I think people would have had more respect if she had even said something like "towards the end of lockdown and as restrictions started to ease it became clear that myself and Joe wanted very different things in the next few years. Joe wanted to get married and live abroad for a years to further his career whereas following our wedding I wanted to settle down in the UK and start a family. After a long heart to heart we decided it was best to end our relationship but we both want the best for each other"

I agree with people above who have said that holding hands is quite intimate.

 

[emm]

I’ve been on a lot of tinder dates in my time. I jumped on tinder straight away when my relationship ended, but I would never hold hands. That’s something you do in a relationship...

I would sleep with guys, but holding hands is just too far! I didn’t even want to spend the next day with them, just get the hell out of my place

But maybe Niomi isn’t a ag like me. Maybe she wants the romance and expects guys to woo her, take her on romantic strolls and hold her hand.

I’m actually a bit jealous of how people can move on so quick. It’s rare for me to have feelings for someone. Takes me years of being single to meet someone I like!

yeh 100% agree holding hands for me is muxh more intimate than having sex imo also at this point would someone be so close to a randon tinder date? (or knowing niomi and her lack of distanckng etc maybe she would )

Yeah, good point. How long has she been dating this guy to get to the point of holding hands? It feels like her and joe broke up just yesterday.

Holding hands is a boyfriend/girlfriend thing. So I guess she’s not single anymore?! This whole thing is weird.
