Right? I don't even know why Brooke would want to be married to him. She has to walk on eggshells for the rest of her life, always worried about what would set him off? That's no way to live.

Not just him but I want someone to push them both of a cliff. KA is so annoying to watch not only because I dislike the Taylor character but watching all the hand waving body twitching from KA is just way over the top even HT with her annoying head bobbing wasn't as annoying as KA

Completely innocent. But in Ridge's mind it justifies kissing Taylor.

I would love to interrogate a writer about why they think Brooke has to accept Ridge being that way with Taylor, but brooke cant even speak to deacon.

Ridge is an emotional abuser when it comes to Brooke. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and thinks that he is entitled to do as he pleases, and Brooke is supposed to bow down and let him control her. Someone should inform him that the 50's are over. I think Ridge has the same controlling mean streak in him that Stephanie had. Somehow lately, he gives Taylor a pass no matter what kind of stupid stunts she pulls. If it had been Brooke that befriended Sheila, Ridge would have had a massive temper tantrum telling her how immature it was. Since it was the world renown quack, he shrugs it off but has a tantrum about Deacon which is nowhere near as dangerous as Sheila.

And watch, when he gets back from MC he'll go right in on Brooke for being in a photo when he straight up cheated with Taylor.

And it seems Taylor has no problem being the rebound. I guess Ridge has her in his back pocket. :whistle

It’s easy for him to cheat on Brooke ONLY
In the early days he made love to Caroline while with Brooke …
He dumped her for a kiss or a few texts … she’s not worth an explanation…
Remember how she learnt she was dismissed as his wife and he had married Taylor again … not even the courtesy of a phone call

Ridge cheated on Caroline with Alex. And he cheated on Caroline, Brooke, and Margo, all with each other. Then he cheated on Thorne, sleeping with Thorne's wife while Thorne was making a sandwich!

So funny how a drunken night with a married woman is called "making love" because Caroline was the woman in question, while Brooke or Hope always "bang" their men.
And Bridge weren't in a committed relationship yet when Ridge had that drunken night with Caroline, so the only one they were cheating on was Thorne, not Brooke. Plus, it had already been more than easy for Ridge to cheat on Caroline months earlier, the night before their wedding. So how does he only do it to Brooke?

She definitely got an explanation in both of those situations.

He did call her from Taylor's house after their vow renewal, Brooke just didn't want to talk to him because she already knew what had happened. She had been at the hospital right after Ridge and Taylor had left and Stephanie had gleefully announced the news to her.

Ridge loved Caroline all along and Brooke knew it.
Later, Ridge was shown daydreaming of Caroline while in bed with Brooke
Brooke tried to derail Caridge with manipulations then a baby trap but ultimately they reunited

And Bridge weren't in a committed relationship yet when Ridge had that drunken night with Caroline, so the only one they were cheating on was Thorne, not Brooke.

It was the same situation as SINN …

Bc he repeatedly cheated on and dumped Brooke

AFTER the runway proposal and after the death bed wedding when he had already made his choice

What is telling is Ridge immediately made love to Taylor and later when the truth about the attack was revealed, he didn’t consider going back to Brooke and their baby child … poor Brooke was crushed again bc of course she didn’t care anymore how he had dismissed her and was hoping to get him back
When Ridge dumped her, Brooke was unable to bed her husband Grant for months …

My point wasn't that Ridge and Caroline didn't love each other. Of course they did. But still it's a huge stretch to call drunken sex with your sister-in-law in your brother's bed "making love", no matter how often Ridge flashed back to that night after the fact. There was nothing romantic about that prank, even if we believe the rewrite that Caroline knew it was him.
Eric & Brooke or Bill & Brooke loved each too and they were neither drunk nor did they ever have sex in Stephanie or Katie's bed, yet you keep saying Brooke "banged" these men, just because it's Brooke. Same with Hope. You keep saying she got Liam to "bang" her the night he proposed to her at the cabin after professing his love to her, just because it's Hope.

Not really. Sinn's relationship was already on a different level when Steffy had her drunken night with Liam. They weren't just dating like Bridge, they had already slept with each other. But I would never claim that it's easy for Steffy to cheat on Finn, so I'm not sure why you're even bringing them up.


Bc he repeatedly cheated on and dumped Brooke

Well, Caroline didn't live long enough for Ridge to cheat on her and dump her repeatedly. And his relationships with her niece or with Ashley weren't long enough either. Taylor is the only other woman that he could have dumped or cheated on repeatedly. And he did dump her repeatedly. He may only have cheated on her once, but that was pretty easy for him too, all it took was a faked email that he didn't even bother double-checking. And he only cheated on Brooke twice by kissing other women when Bridge were actually living together. If it was so easy for him to cheat on her, it would have happened even much more often when they were actually together, not just after they had already separated. And it wouldn't only have been kisses.


AFTER the runway proposal and after the death bed wedding when he had already made his choice

Was he supposed to call Brooke from the hospital right before renewing his vows to Taylor? It's not like he had already made his choice before he went there. What difference did a few hours make in this situation? It's not like Brooke was waiting for his call that day.
And the runway proposal was retaliation for getting his heart broken when he saw Brooke kiss Grant. Yes, at that very moment he thought she didn't deserve an explanation and wanted her to feel just as hurt as he had felt the day before. But that was a one time thing and doesn't define their relationship at all.


What is telling is Ridge immediately made love to Taylor and later when the truth about the attack was revealed, he didn’t consider going back to Brooke and their baby child … poor Brooke was crushed again bc of course she didn’t care anymore how he had dismissed her and was hoping to get him back

Nothing in that paragraph has anything to do with Ridge easily cheating on Brooke. Brooke wasn't even his wife when he renewed his vows to Taylor after the fake heart attack and when he slept with her later that day after Brooke didn't answer his call.

It is true the Brooke with Deacon photo triggered him…he needed to have made a phone call and asked what the heck was going on in his office.

You mean, did Ridge think he was free to do anything he wants because he and Brooke were only living "in the moment"? Probably not, but he sure does operate like he thinks so.

It's a grey area, because the show hasn't really been specific about Bridge's arrangement. No one really knows what this "living in the moment" actually means. I guess we will only know if we're supposed to count this kiss as cheating when we see Brooke's reaction after learning about the kiss.

Of course, this Tridge kiss should count as cheating. Bridge are still legally MARRIED..not to mention, he made a decision to move back home and even told Taylor about his decision too. Ridge is likely to keep this SOBER cheating kiss a secret from his wife, and he totally deserves to be crucified and stoned to death just like Brooke went through this he!! when she kept her drunken kiss a secret.

That's an interesting perspective, but since Taylor brought up that he'd said he'd "live in the moment" with her, I think these women are expecting him to that with one relationship at a time, not both. BUT they could be the ones misunderstanding, not him -- or maybe Taylor figured out what you said because she surely isn't minding being with a man one moment and alone while he's with someone else the next.
