When Did Brooke Become an Invertebrate - The World of the Bold & the Beautiful Fan Forum

Seriously. I don't like Brooke. I've made no secret of that. I've said she can't control her libido and has no boundaries but I've never said she was stupid, until now. She made the concession in her reunion with Ridge. She banned Deacon from the entire property thus making significantly more difficult for her daughter to have a relationship with her father. She's asked nothing from Ridge in return. Not only has she not asked him to limit his contact with Taylor but she's actively encouraging him to have contact with her. She sat there today and let him go on and on about his "concern" for Taylor and even agreed with him. Even if she wasn't sincere she was still willing to make Ridge believe she is. What happened to her backbone? Is she that desperate to keep Ridge that she will say and do whatever it takes and allow him to do and say whatever he wants as long as he's in her bed?

Looked more to me like she's confident and secure in her relationship with Ridge and she knows that Taylor isn't a threat.

I think Brooke has acted like a confident and calm grown women, whereas Taylor has acted like a 13-year-old brat.

She has definitely acted like that since she told Deacon not to come around anymore.

I agree. Brooke looks like the adult here while Taylor acts like a teenage girl.
But at least, with Deacon, she finally admitted that Ridge would always return to Brooke in the end.
So she knows this but still keeps trying again and again... :roll

She needs a psychiatrist herself. Maybe she could become friends with Quinn and they could go to the psychiatrist together. Carpool. Cut down on the pollution in LA.

She always admits this when she loses... The true definition of insanity is to keep repeating the same behavior expecting a different result.... Dr MacQuackers should know this.

Ridge moving out wasn't the reason why she was stressed out and didn't go to the office. All this only happened before she learned that Sheila had spiked her drink, when she was disgusted with her own behavior and doubting herself, desperately looking for an explanation what made her drink the vodka and kiss Deacon. As soon as she learned about Sheila's manipulation, her demeanor instantly changed and she was confident that Ridge would eventually return to her.

That wasn't confidence or even arrogance. The idea that Ridge didn't have to give up anything and say and do whatever he pleases with regard to Taylor but Brooke can't even mention Deacon's name is purely unfair.

Yes it is a double standard. And even if Taylor is acting like a thirteen year old, some of those thirteen year olds can be pretty alluring. Would not trust my husband to that.

I would trust mine. If I couldn't, I wouldn't have married him. I don't think most men are interested in kids who just became a teenager. Men who stray would stray with a woman in her 20s, but not a 13 year old kid, not unless he wants to end up in jail. Just my opinion, though.

Deacon is a criminal who has served jail time. Even though Brooke cannot change that he's Hopes father, she has zero reason to have him in her life personally. It's not like they had a great relationship or marriage and were happy for years. It was a sordid period of her life that she would rather forget. So it makes sense that Ridge would not want Deacon near their property and Brooke would agree to it. She was against Hope keeping a relationship with him in the first place when Hope revealed she had been in touch with him. She only came around later.

What has Taylor done to deserve such banishment? She was Ridges wife for many years. They had 3 kids together and were happily married. In fact if Brooke were to suggest something like that she would look jealous, insecure and immature. I'm glad she has accepted that Taylor will always be a part of Ridges life and is fine with that. Ridge has made it clear since Thursdays episode that Brooke is who he wants to be with. There has been zero doubt shown in his words or demeanour.

For me personally the fact Taylor can't respect their marriage is the reason she should be banned unless it's holidays. Now if Taylor could keep her lips and hands to herself I would see no problem. At this point she is worse than Deacon because she was kissing on Ridge for months.

He can do that if he wants to just spend the holidays with Brooke's family. Because I'm pretty sure Steffy and Thomas will support their mother and have their own celebration. No big deal :neutral

Sure he initiated those kisses, but she sure initiated stalking him to work and at Eric’s too bringing his favorite Chinese food to him....she did her share of chasing him. And it’s amazing to me that it didn’t even bother Taylor one bit that for months Ridge had no desire to even draw up divorce papers..before flirting and kissing her. LOL.

I know Ridge began by supporting Taylor and Steffy after Steffy's shooting, but then Taylor turned into "just fun and games" like Shauna.

Brooke doesn't know that though. And they were separated when that was happening. I'd like to see what happens now that they're back together. I agree that if they still go around touching and kissing each other, she should absolutely have an issue with that.

When Taylor wants to see Ridge, she doesn't show up at Brooke's house but at FC or she asks him to come to the cliff house, so there's no reason for Brooke to ban her from her property. Deacon however kept showing up at Brooke's house every chance he got, using Hope as an excuse. That's what Ridge couldn't stand.

Deacon is a criminal who has served jail time.

Yes, He went to jail for attempted murder. However Taylor is a criminal who tried attempted murder who didn’t serve any jail time and fleed from any justice being served. Brooke is aware of it and maybe she doesn’t want her around her grandchildren considering that history. Not to mention the murder that Taylor actually has committed when she mowed down and killed Darla.

I do believe that they are double standards. I do believe that although Ridge might be annoyed at the thought of Deacon being around he really does not have the right to dictate who can be around considering he has Taylor around and he is aware with Taylor did. As far as I’m concerned right now Taylor, the baby buying, drunk running and attempted murderess seems to be the more dangerous criminal than Deacon. At least he served his time what exactly did she do beside get away with it for the second time?

The only grandchild Brooke could have a say over is Beth. She can't keep her from Douglas since Thomas is his father and Ridge would never allow it either. All that would do is split Bridge up again.

You're quite right of course. But this post is about why Brooke doesn't issue an ultimatum to Ridge regarding Taylor. I think Brooke is acting completely in character by not doing that. She has always been way too forgiving, almost to a fault. She has never thrown Taylor's past in her face, although Taylor and her kids do that to Brooke all the time. Sometimes it is annoying, I will give you that. I wish she would give back as good as she got. But that would be totally out of character for her.

Regarding Brooke promising that Deacon will not be around, I didn't see that as only capitulating to Ridge. As I mentioned in another post, she herself was initially not happy about having him around. She only gave in when Hope insisted. So it's not too far fetched for her to go back to her initial way of thinking and realizing she was right after all.

I have to agree with you when it comes to Brooke’s behavior she does tend to be more forgiving which sometimes is a good thing but often I think it’s not. Brooke is a good person And I guess on some level one of the reasons I like her so much is because she’s so forgiving. But I’d like you wish she would remind Taylor of her past when she gets all Into Brooke’s face. I also wish that Brooke will remind Ridgeof his own indiscretions.

Yes, He went to jail for attempted murder. However Taylor is a criminal who tried attempted murder who didn’t serve any jail time and fleed from any justice being served. Brooke is aware of it and maybe she doesn’t want her around her grandchildren considering that history. Not to mention the murder that Taylor actually has committed when she mowed down and killed Darla.

I do believe that they are double standards. I do believe that although Ridge might be annoyed at the thought of Deacon being around he really does not have the right to dictate who can be around considering he has Taylor around and he is aware with Taylor did. As far as I’m concerned right now Taylor, the baby buying, drunk running and attempted murderess seems to be the more dangerous criminal than Deacon. At least he served his time what exactly did she do beside get away with it for the second time?

I don't even think Deacon's criminal past is Ridge's actual problem with him. He doesn't really seem to be afraid that Deacon is going to commit a felony against anyone in his family or harm any of the kids. It's about the way Deacon is a constant reminder of Brooke's biggest betrayal and the darkest time in her life.
Even if Bridge weren't together when Brooke and Deacon were having their affair, Deacon was the man who brought out the worst in Brooke, a side of her that both Ridge and Brooke herself don't want to see resurface ever again. As much as I dislike Taylor and as many skeletons as she has in her closet, she can't be accused of bringing out the worst in Ridge like Deacon did with Brooke.

Yep, totally double standards. The bottom line for this viewer is if Deacon can't be trusted around Brooke's house, then neither should Taylor be trusted around Ridge IMO.

I agree. But Brooke doesn't play that way. Unfortunately for any woman involved with Ridge, acceptance of a double standard is the expectation.

That wasn't confidence or even arrogance. The idea that Ridge didn't have to give up anything and say and do whatever he pleases with regard to Taylor but Brooke can't even mention Deacon's name is purely unfair.

As long as I can remember, Ridge has pretty much done whatever he pleases with both Taylor and Brooke. When he was married to Taylor, he had his hands all over Brooke. Now that he's married to Brooke, he's hanging around Taylor.

If Brooke's a sleaze, then everyone on the show is a sleaze. What Brooke's done in her distant past can't compare to what Ridge has done or Taylor, who used to cruise bars and hooked up with men whose manes she didn't even know. Now that's a sleaze.

Seriously. I don't like Brooke. I've made no secret of that. I've said she can't control her libido and has no boundaries but I've never said she was stupid, until now. She made the concession in her reunion with Ridge. She banned Deacon from the entire property thus making significantly more difficult for her daughter to have a relationship with her father. She's asked nothing from Ridge in return. Not only has she not asked him to limit his contact with Taylor but she's actively encouraging him to have contact with her. She sat there today and let him go on and on about his "concern" for Taylor and even agreed with him. Even if she wasn't sincere she was still willing to make Ridge believe she is. What happened to her backbone? Is she that desperate to keep Ridge that she will say and do whatever it takes and allow him to do and say whatever he wants as long as he's in her bed?

Looked more to me like she's confident and secure in her relationship with Ridge and she knows that Taylor isn't a threat.

That's exactly how it looked to me. I'd say those are great attributes in a woman.

Once again the comparison between the two was crystal clear. While Taylor was there implying Brooke manipulated Ridge back into her life, Brooke showed nothing but concern and understanding for Taylor. I have to say, as crappy as the writing generally is, I am absolutely loving these subtle comparisons where Brooke always turns out to be the better woman.

Ridge just referred to the time as a few months, not six. Regardless, Brooke has always seen the separation as her fault. I like that she hasn't been hanging all over Ridge, like Taylor, and begging him to be with her, like Taylor.

The writing has been inconsistent, but I don’t see Brooke as weak. She’s surprisingly calm. When Ridge asked her to leave him with Taylor she didn’t flinch. She said see you my husband. Throughout all of this the only consistent thing has been Ridge’s referral to Brooke as his wife and Brooke calls Ridge her husband. Taylor comes across as weak and spineless. Brooke comes across as the adult in the room.

I'm not in the business of defending Brooke but she shouldn't have to listen to her husband blathering on about his ex-wife less than a day into their reunion. She's scared that if she upsets him, he'll just leave again. That's mostly her own doing but it's still no way to live.

Brooke has always had naivete when it comes to her heart. She has been desperate to have a man love her. It's quite basic really. Her father ran out on her mother and her sisters. She had to be a pseudo parent after her mother couldn't cope anymore and then her brother commits suicide. She needs love because shes never truly had it.
To her detriment Brooke has believed Ridge loves her. Sex has been her currency because no one in her life ever taught her to value herself. That's why she never asks Ridge for anything and constantly acquiesces to anything he asks of her even if it's ridiculous.
What she needs besides a backbone and learning to fight back against Taylor and the Tridge tots is to choose herself and put her needs first not Ridges. She must set boundaries Hey can I write her next story please?

Brooke hasn't relied on sex to get a man. For goodness sake, Bill and Deacon still love her, and they haven't had sex for years. I don't see her as desperate to have a man love her, either. That's Taylor. Taylor is desperate and pathetic when it comes to Ridge. He truly loved Brooke. That's been the one constant in the show. Ridge always returns to Brooke because she is the only one for him.

Deacon doesn't live in a closet, he lives in a supply and storage room. A cot wouldn't fit in a closet. Barby, you know why Liam and Hope live in the cabin. Because the show can't afford new sets. That's why Taylor is still mooching off her daughter. Mooch, mooch, mooch. That's Taylor. She mooches off her daughter and she tries to take another woman's husband. Sorry, Taylor, he's just not that into you.

I don't think Brooke would bother to ask Ridge to not see Taylor. Why? Brooke is not concerned about Taylor, she knows that Ridge wants a life with her, not Taylor. He has only wanted a life with Brooke and not Taylor, since Taylor clawed her way out of the grave back when RJ was a baby. She came back, staked her claim, made her demands, let her pitbull Stephanie do her "work" then Taylor swooped in for the kill on Ridge. And, it worked. Ridge crawled back to the whiny wimp that told him a 1 year old did not need their daddy like a bunch of grown teens did. Then he found his out, and he actually looked relieved when he was running out that door as she was clawing at his legs and begging him not to leave. LOL.

She made the concession in her reunion with Ridge. She banned Deacon from the entire property thus making significantly more difficult for her daughter to have a relationship with her father. She's asked nothing from Ridge in return. Not only has she not asked him to limit his contact with Taylor but she's actively encouraging him to have contact with her. She sat there today and let him go on and on about his "concern" for Taylor and even agreed with him. Even if she wasn't sincere she was still willing to make Ridge believe she is. What happened to her backbone? Is she that desperate to keep Ridge that she will say and do whatever it takes and allow him to do and say whatever he wants as long as he's in her bed?

I don't think Brooke would bother to ask Ridge to not see Taylor. Why? Brooke is not concerned about Taylor, she knows that Ridge wants a life with her, not Taylor. He has only wanted a life with Brooke and not Taylor, since Taylor clawed her way out of the grave back when RJ was a baby. She came back, staked her claim, made her demands, let her pitbull Stephanie do her "work" then Taylor swooped in for the kill on Ridge. And, it worked. Ridge crawled back to the whiny wimp that told him a 1 year old did not need their daddy like a bunch of grown teens did. Then he found his out, and he actually looked relieved when he was running out that door as she was clawing at his legs and begging him not to leave. LOL.

Exactly! Taylor hasn't even been on Brookes radar every time she has talked to Ridge about their marriage. She doesn't see her as a threat at all. On the other hand, Taylor hasn't wasted a single opportunity to undermine and badmouth Brooke.

Brooke learned a long time ago that Taylor is not a threat. The threat is always those having to carry Taylor's water for her. Stephanie was a threat. Now Steffy and Tom are a threat. They all play dirty, they all commit crimes to play dirty, Brooke is well aware of how low an criminal they will go to reunite mommy and daddy. Brooke KNOWS Taylor all alone, is a big fat nothing worry for her.

I have to say as a Brooke fan I was impressed with how her dialogue was written yesterday. She didn't bash Taylor. She told Ridge she knew he would stand by her and his kids. She has the faith in Ridge that Taylor lacks. Taylor knows that even if she is with Ridge, Brooke is there and in his head and ultimately in his heart. He's loved her way before Taylor hit the scene. Taylor just can't accept nor comprehend that.

Well Taylor & Ridge don’t have the past that Deacon & Brooke have. Their love wasn’t a betrayl & Tridge lived as a family for years. They have a bond. Deacon & Brooke don’t have that kind of history. Also, Brooke knows that Ridge won’t stay away from Taylor. She’s not going to ban him from ever seeing her and it won’t work cause Taylor lives with Steffy. So some battles are better left alone. I see Ridge is already gearing himself up to play rescue ranger. Oh Taylor is so vulnerable & I don’t want her to fall into the wrong hands, blah,blah. I’m laughing just thinking about what an azz he’s going to be about Taylor & Deacon friendship. This is going to be a trip. :lol

And unless she's the stupidest character ever created on any soap, Taylor knows Ridge is ultimately going to choose Brooke, even if she doesn't take him back some day. Taylor knows she will always be a very distant second best, if that. Ridge might give Taylor some false "warning" about Deacon, but ultimately, he doesn't give a rat's behind who Taylor invites into her bed. She slept with all those anonymous - even to her - men from the docks, and Ridge didn't care. Had it been Brooke, he would have been frantic with jealousy.

I think you underestimate Ridge's hatred for Deacon. Brooke had a legitimate reason to have contact with Deacon and it drove Ridge crazy. I don't think he's going to handle it well when he learns that Taylor and Deacon have struck up a friendship.

He barely shrugged when Taylor invited Sheila over for Christmas and Sheila is waaaay more threatening than Deacon.

I wonder why Ridge thinks Taylor's so vulnerable. Such an asinine thing on his part. Taylor's move towards Deacon is deliberate. She needs to someone to use and Deacon is the perfect candidate. Poor Deacon.

But it will probably turn out to be just like Liam going to Steffy's house so much after the shooting...just a big tease.

I'll say it this way.
Breacon won't happen but not because Hope will and should go ballistic. She shot Bill but MORE important her father being involved with the woman who bought and paid for her stolen baby?
Taylor likes to get involved with men who's family's she's wronged. Remember poor Alexandria Forrester? Taylor's involvement with Thorne cost her her sanity and her life.
