The reality TV star recently posted a photo with winner Nikki Ferrell, and the caption read, “We are FREE @nikki_ferrell…” after the reunion show. The response to this declaration about his relationship and love wasn’t kind, but Galavis isn’t going to let it bother him. According to UsMagazine.com, the 32-year-old former soccer player later shared the quote, “Throw me to the wolves, and I’ll come back leading the pack.” The Bachelor star Juan Pablo Galavis received some mean comments on his Instagram post. How do you keep outside influences from affecting your relationship and love life? Related: The New ‘Bachelor’ Is Juan Pablo Galavis! Cupid’s Advice: Outsiders aren’t always your best friends. They will nitpick and find every single way to taint the connection between you and your partner. Consider this relationship advice from Cupid: 1. Maintain a sense of mystery: Nowadays, many couples share their most intimate moments to complete strangers without even realizing it. From happy times to the occasional arguments, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram make it easy to reveal all. Instead, keep your feelings to yourself and let others think what they want about your relationship and love. Related: Former ‘Bachelor’ Star Kacie B. Is Engaged 2.
