Her friends and loved ones didn't accept her for who she was despite having a hand in her transformation and everyone else (i.e. Henrietta and Renard) who was in the know about it told her that she had to accept it for what it is. the problem is that juliette went out of control, accepting or not, they didnt give up on her until she destroyed every last chance, the thing is: nick wasnt able to look at juliettes hexenbiest self which made her leave him, but there are two logcial explanations for why nick wasnt able to kiss hexenbiest-mode-juliette,

1. he felt remorse for doing this to her, he wasnt able to look into her changed look out of guilt,

and second(my more simple version): he simply couldnt because she was a talking, rotten corpse, every sane person would be unable to act like it was nothing if the girlfriend insisted on kissing such a mouth,

unfortunatly juliette could hae easily stayed with nick and that despite being a hexenbiest, we saw how down he was because she was gone, but she more or less forced the break up,

not only with nick but with the other friends too while they wanted to help her, by either: control her new powers or lose them, but she pushed her friends away despite them wanting to bring the old julette back, unfortunatly the new juliette was corrupted by power, she acted wild, impulsive and out of control,

naturally they couldnt accept her like that, and controlling her powers was useless for her character, the only way to make her "normal" again was to let her powers vanish, but juliette herself chose to not do it, still behave evil and even kill nick, until now the only thing that seems to be a "mind influencing"-thing by a hexenbiest transformation is the corruption of power, juliette wasnt controlled neither was adalind, but different than juliette adalind had her reasons but of course it is no excuse for evil things...

what is a ditz?

If I were Nick, I would have remembered all the things Juliette had gone through and accepted about me and my life, and asked her first and foremost what she wanted to do. Nick's a Grimm so his life is always wrought with danger, both for him and the ones closest to him. If I were Nick, I would have thought that Juliette's newfound powers were an asset because they would enable her to protect herself when I couldn't be there. I would have accepted her for what she was now without question if she wanted me to.

If she continued to be indecisive about her powers, I would have consulted someone on my own only then and if the answer were to help her control them or to kill her, I would have helped her control her powers. That way, the friends around us (i.e. Monrosalee and Hank) would have taken my cue and backed us up. That way Juliette would have known she was accepted and would have tried to control her powers and not hurt people. Just my $0.02.
