What Do you Think?

I think your sister is spot on. Ridge wants Brooke to give him a reason, a reason to leave so he won't look like the bad guy. He can't ever say he's happy with Brooke. Taylor doesn't bring the chaos Brooke does. Ridge just wants to get out unscathed.

I agree that Ridge wants boring and safe. He's susceptible to pressure, especially from his ex-wife and children. They know it and he knows it. Hearing the same thing over and over wears a person down. Piling on guilt. Questioning family loyalty. Attacking the person you love. What's a man to do? Easier to give up than fight. He knows they will never stop browbeating him.

They are like Ring Wraiths. Of the Ring Wraiths, Smeogal told Frodo, "They will never stop hunting you." Or screeching. That's what Taylor and Steffy are. Loud-mouthed ring wraiths who will never stop until they get the one husband to rule them all. It does wear a person down.

I love this, being a LOTR fan. LOL.

Remember what Steffy said about Ridge once, that he was a weak man, and that is why she had to protect him. He las lived up to her assessment of him these last 9 months. Ridge is a very weak man, and he does not handle challenge or pressure well at all. He is unable to keep his word or his promises, and he is competitive with anyone that loves Brooke. He is so weak as a man.
