Hey all. I got this posting through a list that I'm on. If you'd like to read the actual message board it came from, just click here The Post. I do somewhat believe it. You read and see for yourselves. I have more to say at the bottom of this page.
Hi!
How is everyone today?
Well, I've been visiting and basically lurking on this board for quite some time now. I come in here almost every day to read what kinds of rumors are flying around about the boys, and to see what kinds of news you guys pick up on. I was basically sent here to read the posts, and make sure no body has the wrong idea about anything.
However, the time has come where I don't think I should be just lurking anymore. I really feel that I need to post and inform you girls on the real information, and exactly what is going on behind closed doors. Please keep in mind that I did not come here to play an authority figure, I just feel the
need to post because I think you girls deserve to know the truth. I know the information that I know, and please do not ask me to reveal anymore than that. My intention is to clear up rumors, not to behave mysteriously or be questioned. Now that that's out of the way, I can let you in on the truth.
First of all, yes girls, as painful as it might be to some of you, Nick and Mandy are on speaking terms again. Not only are they on speaking terms, they
are basically "dating" right now, if you choose to call it that. Their relationship is no where near as serious as it was before. Nick is still deeply hurt by her, and right now he's just trying to figure out what he wants. All the information that Debbie Spaulding posted on the Official Nick Carter site (http://www.Nick-Carter.com) was 100% accurate, and was posted with Nick's consent. To sum up all of Nick's feelings without taking up the entire bored, I'll just make it simple. He's very confused, not to mention hurt. His self-confidence level is EXTREMELY low, and he doesn't know what he wants. His relationship with Mandy was the first serious, long-term relationship he's ever had, and he's new to all of this. Nick broke up with Mandy again in September, and he and everyone else, including his family and
friends knew it was the right decision. However, Mandy did not give up because she knows that her career will NOT go anywhere without Nick's help. Mandy does not love Nick, or even care about him that much for that matter. She needs him for her career. Nick doesn't want to hear or believe that, however. It's very sad. Nick took her back a short while ago because the pain
of loneliness was starting to sting. It hurt him. She also made him believe that she had changed, but we all know that she hasn't. Nick refuses to accept that. Nick's little relationship with Mandy is basically unapproved by his family (especially his mother), his friends, and the rest of the boys in the group. They have all advised him not to take her back, but he's attached to her. Nick doesn't know what real love is, and he doesn't understand that REAL love doesn't come with all the pain that Mandy is putting him through.
I know that this reunion with Mandy and Nick will be somewhat short-lived. Soon enough, he's going to realize the mistake that he's made, and he'll
leave her yet again. That time for good. I don't think he can go through another heart break. Nick's family and friends plan on talking some sense into him as soon as this tour is over. Right now, he is staying in LA with his family, and is not moving back to Ruskin.
Bob (Nick's father) and Brent are no longer on tour with Nick at the moment. They were originally there to keep Mandy away from Nick, and to prevent her from trying to put her "spell" on him once again. Obviously, they were unsuccessful, and they went home. For now, Mandy is accompanying Nick for the rest of the tour. However, I, and he rest of his friends are positive that this relationship will not last through is break before the new tour in February.
I hope I've cleared everything up, and answered any questions. If there are any remaining questions, post them, and I will answer what I feel is appropriate.
You girls are a GREAT bunch, and I'm sure you understand what's going on.
Feel free to post to me anytime you want.

I don't know what it is about this, but I can actually believe it. I guess that's the sad part. Please, I've posted my guestbook for a purpose. Leave your feelings about this. Don't leave your feelings on MY opinions or anything like that, attacking my personal views, but tell everyone that comes here how you feel about this whole Nick incident. Do you feel bad for him? Do you feel like he's causing his own problems if this posting is indeed true? Do you think fame has finally taken an emotional toll on Mister Carter?
