Adalind did not split hairs while things she did was out of her control. Not at all. I just get tired of reading the same old replies from the people who favor the Nick/Adalind pairing. For example,

Adlalind was a pawn, Juliette betrayed Kelly.

Adalind was rejected by her mother and Sean. Juliette burned down the trailer

It's the same old yada yada yada. It's as though the only things people can come up with in order to show Juliette in a bad light (and thus show how great Adalind is), is to point out that Juliette betrayed Kelly and Juliette burned down the trailer.

None of you looks at the reasons why this came to be. Instead you act as though Juliette just one day decided she was going to betray Kelly and burn down the trailer. I'm not arguing that Juliette did either of those things. She did. However, there were mitigating circumstances. In other words, ''because she helped Nick, she paid the price by becoming a hexenbiest. As a hexenbiest, she betrayed Kelly and burned down the trailer.''

She would have NEVER betrayed Kelly or burned down the trailer if she hadn't become a hexenbiest. While I think the last statement may be true, I believe Nick and Juliette would have struggled to maintain their relationship for much longer regardless. Hexenbiest Juliette was finally venting over all the crap that happened between them, basically since Nick became a Grimm. Juliette had bottled up too much and the hexenbiest simply let it all out in the most destructive way imaginable. While he was powerless, you saw just how disconnected they had grown with what they desired for their relationship. Juliette was making way too many sacrifices for Nick and it finally came to head. Finding out about Adalind being pregnant with Nick's baby, would have broken the camel's back just the same, so instead of betraying Kelly and burning the trailer, she would have simply packed her bags and left. At least that's what I wanted for her, for the sake of her sanity.
