Brooke keeps saying destiny. Ridge barely ever says that word. Taylor is 100% right, Ridge is always in love with both of them. Bridge don't keep calling themselves destiny. It's all on Brooke.

I don't think Brooke knows what destiny really is. Destiny is what happens when you don't even try. It happens even though you try NOT to make it happen. Destiny is not when you have to fight for it, time and time again.

I think it's destiny cuz he always ended up crawling back to Brooke time and time again. LOL.
Taylor isn't right at all..she kissed Ridge the last time she was in LA and he rejected her. This time around, he has never said he's actually in love with her. He only said he loves her because they share kids together. Big difference.

Exactly. He was even living at Steffy's with a thirsty Taylor right there...and he still didn't do anything more than a couple of quick kisses...and a few hugs. Taylor is just trying to get into Brooke's head with that nonsense.

I don't know for how long you've been watching B&B, but during the 90s and early 00s, Brooke was always 2nd choice after Taylor. B&B had to kill off Taylor twice so that Brooke could have Ridge. He didn't do any crawling. It was Brooke who did the begging and seducing and lying. It was never destiny.

Been watching for decades. And ancient history got nothing to do with the current narrative. Taylor was wrong for putting words in Ridge's mouth since he hasn't actually told her that he's in love with her in this story.

What makes them destiny is the way they have always found their way back to each other, even after there were times where it seemed like they never would and even after being ripped apart by manipulations several times. Ridge choosing Taylor over Brooke twice, thinking she was the real love of his life, or Brooke choosing Eric and Nick over Ridge, thinking she could be happier with them, only for both Brooke and Ridge to find out that they were wrong, is actually even more proof that they are destiny.

And it's not even true that Brooke was "always" Ridge's second choice in the 90s. When he first got married to Taylor in 1992, Brooke had clearly been his first choice. He just couldn't bear destroying his father's marriage when he realized how happy being with Brooke and little Rick made Eric, that's why he staged that affair with a model the night before he took off to St.Thomas, hoping to make Brooke so mad at him that she would run back to his father. He even told Stephanie he was making an incredible sacrifice by giving up on Brooke for Eric's sake. And Taylor wasn't his first choice either when he proposed to her on the runway with the ring meant for Brooke in 1996.
I'm also sure that Bridge would still have reunited in the 90s and 00s if Taylor hadn't been presumed dead. If HT hadn't left the show twice, there would have been another reason for a Tridge breakup. There's no way they would have stayed married forever.

How is Brooke desperate? She's the one married to Ridge. The only desperate one I see is Taylor who is trying to break up Brooke's marriage with the help of her lunatic daughter and son. .

You keep saying Brooke is desperate. Brooke is married to Ridge. Taylor is desperately going after a married man. So please what would you call her?

It’s not love if you need other peoples help to get a man. Can Taylor get Ridge without being pregnant without Stephanie without the Tay Tots. Just wondering!

Ridge chose CHILDLESS Taylor over Brooke with Bridget and BLF
BROOKE is the one who needed a baby to hold onto Ridge
It’s not love if you need to steel a letter to get a chance with a man clearly in love with another so you need to get rid of competition
If you need a baby to hold onto a man who would (and did) dump you if you lose the child
If you need to hide a life altering information to keep your rebound proposal
If you need to hurry a wedding for it to even take place
If you need to BEG him for years to come back to you
If you need the death of 2 wifes to get a shot
If you need to STILL fight other women to keep a man after pursuing him for 35 years : Caroline Margo Taylor Bridget Ashley Quinn Katie Caroline jr Shauna …

It's funny because I keep saying that if Taylor, Steffy and Thomas have to work this hard to reunite with Ridge, it just isn't meant to be.

And, I disagree about what you said above. IMO, destiny is the end result, but the journey is rarely uncomplicated and smooth. Destiny doesn't negate challenges or fighting for it or heartbreaks or disappointments. It's ongoing, a continous direction, consisting of ebbs and flows. Are Brooke and Ridge fated to end up together in the end? I don't know. But, it's only in the end when B&B comes to a close that we will know whether Bridge is destined to be together.

Huh? Ridge just called Brooke the greatest love of his life, his Logan. That wasn't even 2 months ago. What are you talking about?

And even if Ridge is a jerk, his choices speak volumes. He hasn't picked Taylor over Brooke in more than 2 decades now. All of his short-lived reunions with Taylor were built on frauds. Right now both Brooke and Taylor want him, Steffy and Thomas gaslight him to choose Taylor since last winter. But he is with Brooke, no?

I don't agree with that premise about Destiny. People "try" to get away from and can't avoid it. People who are "destined" for fame definitely try to get there -- their mere desire to try comes from it being destiny. My pastor used to say that God gives you the desires of your heart -- meaning He's puts it in you to desire it. Then he fulfills it in your life. You desire things, therefore, because they are your destiny. You fight for them because God put it in you to do so.

So that's why I disagree with your view of destiny.

I disagree on several points. First, I have heard Ridge mention Brooke being his destiny over the years. Most often, I hear people other than Brooke & Ridge mention it.

And, if your premise of destiny being what happens when you don't even try, then I guess that rules out Taylor as his destiny as well. Maybe he should go seek his destiny with a third woman rather than choosing either Brooke or Taylor, if this is true.

But mostly I disagree with your premise that destiny is fulfilled without any work and without fighting for it. If that were the case, then it seems we would all be born with a destiny and would all move toward it and achieve it easily. I don't see that being the case for most people.

Funny that because it was Ridge who originated the destiny thing when he called Brooke his destiny in Lake Como when he proposed to her. He said he could be happy with Taylor but BROOKE was his DESTINY. And he's proved it over and over and over again by constantly going back to her like a moth to a flame. He is drawn back to her like a magnet. That is the story of their life. Ridge can't stay away from his destiny.
