Ridge Was Just Bizarre Today

So what does that say about Brooke that she's okay with Ridge "philandering" as you say? She shouldn't be so desperate to stay married to man that she lets him do whatever the hell he wants to with his ex-wife as long as he comes home at night.


Of course I'm not happy that Brooke lets him get away with it and I wish she would leave him. But again, what has he done? Has he kissed Taylor again? Has he slept with her? Has he made her promises that he can't keep? I didn't watch yesterday so I don't know exactly how it went down but it seems to me the worst he did was be touchy feely with her. And that because Taylor let him. Is it wrong? Yes. Could he have done a lot more and actually cheated on Brooke? Also yes. So if the extent of his philandering is touching his ex-wife (with her full consent of course), then I don't really think Brooke has anything to worry about. And as I said Brooke knows this. If he were to go any further with her again and if Brooke were to overlook it after telling him she'll forgive him this once only, then I'd call her desperate.


That's the thing. Brooke doesn't know it. She has no idea what Ridge does when he's in Taylor's presence. She can't see them. She's assuming he behaves like a married man -- except getting carried away in Monaco. She feels guilty because of the drunken kiss with Deacon, so I don't see her as desperate because she doesn't know what we know.


There you go then. She's being crucified for stuff she doesn't even know. I just read that Donna talked to her so I assumed Donna told her. But you're right, if she isn't aware of his behaviour at all then my argument becomes even stronger. I don't see any desperation there at all either. I do see desperation on Taylor's side though. I read your posts and I too find it interesting that Brooke is being held to a higher standard than Taylor is lol.

Yeah, Donna called Brooke, but she didn't tell Brooke that anything untoward was going on. She just said it was a sweet gathering and the only problem was that Brooke wasn't there but Taylor was. Something like that. But She didn't say Taylor was blowing sunshine up Ridge's nose all night.

So I think Brooke probably suspects Taylor is the one coming onto Ridge. Brooke has said Taylor will use it to her advantage. But I believe Brooke thinks Ridge is being a respectful husband, and I don't know why she would think otherwise -- because if he harps so hard on her and Deacon, then he must be perfect, right?

And that's the bad part of the SL. Brooke feels like she betrayed Ridge with this drunken kiss and then the Bill thing is thrown in her face -- when Ridge was kissing Shauna behind her back, mind you -- So I think Brooke just feels guilty when she shouldn't. She wants Ridge to forgive the Deacon kiss and forget it, so she's trying to do the same thing.

The only problem is -- Ridge won't forgive and forget, even though she's doing it for him. He's horrible. He just mentioned the NYE kiss today to Deacon. Ridge can't get over it, but he expects Brooke to with him and Taylor. Ridge is horrible.
