Brooke Got a Big Fat Reality Check - The World of the Bold & the Beautiful Fan Forum

She went over there all big and bad, demanding that Taylor wrangle her adult daughter, and spouting off about destiny only to get smacked in the face with a harsh reality. Her husband is in love with two women. I don't know if she was in denial or genuinely didn't know but that what happens when go pick fights. You learn things that you didn't want to know. Now Brooke has to deal with the fact that it wasn't just a kiss. That her husband has feelings for another woman. Given her cockiness before, that gut punch of was well deserved. Bet she won't be crowing about destiny for awhile.

Ridge told Brooke he was in love with Taylor or did Taylor tell her he was in love?

Ridge literally told Brooke that he loves Taylor, but not the same way he loves her. He told Brooke she is his everything. Brooke knows that Ridge loves Taylor, but she also knows that he loves her more. Taylor needs a reality check.

I think Taylor said some truthful things today, and I enjoyed the interaction between Taylor and Brooke, it was grownup. Brooke looked contemplative, Taylor looked like she was sad and wanted to cry. She loves Ridge and has never gotten past their time together. I think Brooke saw that rawness in her today, and felt sorry for her. I did like when Brooke said, if Ridge wanted to leave her for Taylor, nothing was stopping him. Taylor knows the truth here, Ridge does love her, he may even be a little in love with the idea of her, but Brooke is his heart and his soul. AND, if Taylor had not started mooning over him again, he would never have gone down that path again. I think Ridge feels guilty about Taylor and the Tots being robbed by Sheila, all those years ago. But there is a truth here, he stayed true to his vows with Taylor, until death did part them. At that point, his duty to his marriage was done. He then married Brooke, had a child with her, and now is married to her again. And, if he is going to stay the course he seems to think is important to him, he will not leave Brooke because he may or may not, be in love with Taylor too. For a minute I thought Taylor was going to say they both should give him up. LOL. She makes a request of Ridge tomorrow, and if it is to move out and do wife tryouts again, then Brooke should file for divorce. JMO

Big difference between loving someone as an ex and the mother of your children, and being in love with the greatest love of your life, your destiny.

Taylor is delusional and putting words into Ridge's mouth. He never said he was "in love" with Taylor and he only kissed her in emotional moments. He still thinks about Brooke every time he spends time with Taylor. If it weren't for Sheila's manipulations, Taylor wouldn't even spend all those cheating moments with Brooke's husband. By encouraging this reunion and taking advantage of this situation, Steffy and Taylor directly approve what Sheila did and benefit from it. If Taylor really hated Sheila as much as she claims, she would realize that and be done with Ridge for good.

Brooke knows Ridge has feelings for Taylor. She accepted it DECADES ago. SHe doesn't blame him for these feelings. But she also knows she is his first choice and always will be. He only goes back to Taylor when he thinks Brooke cheated on him or doesn't want him anymore. The truth about Sheila's manipulations came out and where is he? With Brooke. Taylor, Steffy and Thomas keep begging and begging and begging but where did Ridge go? To Brooke's. Once again, it takes a village of people scheming and ganging up on Brooke so he shows Taylor some interest. And once again he is only going to pick Taylor because of circumstances. The spoilers already gave it away. He will be stuck with Taylor and pining for Brooke like he always does when he is with other women... and dump the woman for Brooke when all is done and over. My popcorns are ready.

Oh and it’ll be a glorious day when he dumps Taylor for the gazillionth time and runs back to Brooke. ITA, bring on the popcorn. The Tay Tots are delusional if they think their parental reunion will have lasting power!

Wow, I think we actually watched different shows today. Brooke went over there not all big bad or anything else. She went there to tell Taylor to get a leash on her dog. And, I really lied the conversation between Brooke and Taylor today. Taylor is only guessing and assuming Ridge is in love with two women, by the way he is behaving around her in front of their family. He has not said he is in love with 2 women, nor has he left his wife to live alone while he decides. I also think Brooke was fully aware it was not just a kiss, she did not look in the least surprised by Taylor's admission. She also looked like she felt for the situation until the very end, when Taylor said that Ridge was in love with 2 women. I also noticed that Taylor was going to cry when Brooke spoke some truth to HER. That Bridge saying destiny was not just some fun thing to say, that it meant something to them and was the reason they always ALWAYS find their way back to each other. Taylor looked like she was going to cry, because that is a truth that cannot be denied.

First of all, it's not an assumption on Taylor's part. Ridge told her he loves without any qualifying. That's a tacit admission that he's in love with her. Second of all, this "destiny" nonsense is just that, nonsense. If you're really destined it shouldn't be so hard to stay together.

My ex longtime boyfriend always tells me he loves me, when we see each other socially. He is happily married, as am I, does this mean he is in love with me? LOL. Nope. It means that he is someone I have knows since HS, dated for 10 years, and we have a deep and abiding love and respect for each other.

Ridge loves Taylor very much. He is also being inundated by his Tridge family right now to reunite with Taylor. He is also feeling extremely guilty about his son's mental illness and not being there to protect his daughter when she was shot by Sheila. Ridge is a vortex of feelings right now, and unfortunately, the Hamilton Gang will not allow him any time at all to himself, to decompress and regroup. Steffy even said they had to do something before he just settled back in with Brooke.

At least Taylor was honest today when she admitted her feelings to Brooke, and it was no surprise to Brooke either. BUT, Ridge went home to Brooke, when he could have just stayed at Eric's And, it was not for her ankle either. That is long healed and he is still living with his wife. Ridge may very well end up with Taylor, I fully expect that will happen, but what a hollow victory that will be for the Hamilton's. That is why I think Taylor was on the verge of crying today, because she knows any way she ends up with Ridge now, he will always love someone else, just as much, if not more than her. And, she will always know, if he chooses to be with her, it will be because of the kids, and not because of just her. Brooke always knows, he is with her, for her. He never does anything for RJ's sake, and he does not even acknowledge Hope as the girl that once called him Dad.

I think that Taylor thinks she can make Ridge forget about Brooke, so she will take the chance on him. But, Taylor has never gotten Ridge to forget about Brooke, yet she never learns. Or maybe this time, she will be content with just a portion of his heart, and while laying in bed, when he sighs, if he is sighing about his Logan.

Ridge always chose Taylor. It took Taylor dying for Brooke to get Ridge by default twice. Ultimately there was incomprehensible switch in how things always worked that coincided with the deliberate character assassination of Taylor. It feels like BB is righting these egregious wrongs hence Brooke reacting so viscerally today because she knows that Ridge will choose Taylor.

You are missing the point. He did choose to stay with Taylor, but he was always chasing Brooke. All through his marriages to Taylor. He left her on the night of their rehearsal dinner to chase after Brooke to stop her from marrying Grant. He paid $50,000. for a motorcycle to get to her. He did not even tell Taylor he was leaving. He went all the way to Paris to bring Brooke home, after finding out what Taylor and his parents had done. He didn't have to go there, but he found out she was almost killed by the man his dad hired, and he went to her. He could have just called and sent the plane. Days after marrying Taylor at the fake heart attack wedding, he was at Brooke's begging her to give him time to figure things out, and Brooke sent him home to his wife. Ridge was is despair when she sent him away. He goes home and tries to make it work with Taylor, but it does not work. He puts space between them when he goes to Paris on business, and when he got back, she told him about cheating with James, kissing Hector, and he was almost relieved, that he had a reason to leave her and go after Brooke. Even long before all of this, he chose to stay with Brooke, when Taylor came back from the dead, the very first time. But, one thing we have never seen on this show in all of the years it has had this triangle, is Ridge running around chasing after Taylor when she is with someone else, while he is married to Brooke. Ridge has interfered in every single other relationship Brooke has had, Grant, James, Nick, Bill, he has begged her not to marry these men, chased her, brought back RJ to stop her from marrying, raped her to stop her, etc. Maybe this time it will be different and when he dumps Taylor and she takes up with Deacon or someone else, Ridge will finally care. But, he sure did not when she married Whip, married Nick, was going to marry Thorne, was sleeping with Eric, etc. He just does not care if Taylor is with another man, but he loses his mind if Brooke is with another man. That tells me, as twisted as his love is, he is completely obsessed with keeping Brooke in his orbit, and not really too concerned if Taylor is in it, or not. It seems Ridge is more concerned about his grown kids wanting mommy and daddy together again, then he is about Taylor's feelings for him. JMHO

Maybe he needs to be alone. Because I don't think being with his safe choice is going to do him any good. And, all it is going to teach his nasty middle aged children is, bullying works, so keep bullying people when you want to take something from them. This was not the way to do Tridge, it is now tainted, and they no longer have any chemistry. What they had is now stale. IMO. Who really seriously wants to watch them do the deed, knowing how it all came about, his telling Brooke she is all he wants, the nasty Hamilton's manipulating him, all of it is forced and does not bode well for Tridge at all.

That’s not true the only reason he ever even got with Taylor was because Taylor manipulated Eric into believing the only way to help Rick was if he stayed with Brooke Ridge had chosen Brooke but Eric went to him and begged him to leave her all alone that is when he hopped on a plane and followed her to St. Thomas and asked her to marry him only after his father begged him to leave Brooke alone read defaulted to Taylor he didn’t choose her.

I don't know where this myth is coming from that Bridge find it hard to stay together. They've been together for how long now? When he left after New Year's, it was because of Sheila's manipulation. The moment he found out, he was back, after ho humming a bit about making his choice. Since then he has told Brooke over and over again that he wants to be with her. He loves her. He also loves Taylor but not like he loves Brooke. Those are Ridges words. If they have been pulled apart it's because of manipulation like what Steffy just did and what Thomas did earlier by blocking Ridge from seeing Brooke and hiding his phone. If people would just let them be they would be perfectly happy together. If they are not meant to be they will implode on their own and then Taylor can swoop in. But she knows that won't happen. So do her kids. That's why they have to try so desperately to make the implosion happen. And even then they're forgetting that they can't make Ridge magically stop loving Brooke and start loving Taylor. They're not doing Taylor any favours and she will in the end have her heart broken. If I liked her even a bit I would actually feel sorry for her but I don't.

ITA. The thing about the unwanted visitors sounds to me like they are going to throw Brooke under the bus to make Tridge seem like they are suppose to be together again. I am sick and tired of this show using Brooke to put across other couples, that are not working. I wish they would just leave Brooke out of it. Ridge can just cheat with Taylor, he has cheated on every woman he has been with, so why not again? If they want Tridge to happen, than just let them cheat and get caught by Brooke, and be done with it. Why does she have to be sacrificed to make the cheaters look like what they are doing is not what they are doing, which is being gamey. Ridge is a cheater, and Taylor is the floozie that encourages his cheating. Pretty simple stuff.

I don't think it matters at this point how he goes to Taylor. As a viewer I've seen and read enough. If he truly wanted Taylor nothing is stopping him. Taylor, Thomas and Steffy are working tirelessly to get him to be with her. Brooke just sits at home and minds her own business. She didn't even wait up for him to come back from the dinner, lol. I found that so funny. She's so secure in their relationship that she doesn't even see the need to confront him right away and knows they can talk later. She has no one manipulating on her behalf. No one bad-mouthing Taylor for her and filling Ridges ears. And yet he comes back home to her. He has not said even once that he's torn. He calls her his wife all the time and tells his kids to leave his marriage alone. After that one kiss in Monaco he hasn't even considered kissing Taylor again. So, in my opinion if he does choose Taylor, it will be because of something very significant and major. And Taylor, the desperate wannabe will of course take him whichever way she can, a la Steffy. I'm not sure who at this point still believes that Taylor is his true love, but I tip my figurative hat to them. They certainly do not know how to give up and that is an admirable quality to have ;-)

He says what he wants all the time. When he confessed about the kiss Brooke asked him if he was in love with Taylor and he said not like he was in love with her. He has told his kids she is his wife and he wants to be married to her. I hate that I have to defend Ridge over here but come on, what more does the guy have to do? Take out a front page ad? He goes home to Brooke every night. He threatened Deacon to stay away from "my wife" and "the home I share with Brooke". If you want an example of someone who doesn't know what he wants, watch Liam from 2011. Ridge is not showing even a fraction of the conflict that Liam was going through.

Because he is a baby that needs an ego boost and Taylor and the tots give him that. Another reason why Brooke should cut the baby loose - let Taylor pacify him and Brooke move on with someone who doesn't need constant stroking.

So he's ok with it too, lol. He treats her affectionately, like his ex and the mother of his kids. I'll believe he's conflicted if he actually tells her he is. Or even something ambiguous, like, in different circumstances we would be together, or I would love to be with you but I can't leave Brooke as she has done nothing to deserve it. Anything. Certainly not "Brooke is my wife and I want to be married to her"! That's as far from conflicted as it can get, lol.

The reason it took him 3 weeks to go back wasn't because he was conflicted between Brooke and Taylor. Ridge said it on the show himself; he didn't know if he could continue living the life he and Brooke had, with constant issues and misunderstandings. Of course he conveniently left out the fact that half the time he was the one creating issues and the other half someone was manipulating them. Even when Taylor was chasing him, bringing his favourite food, going to FC with backless dresses etc, I never saw him conflicted. Not once. The only time he wanted Taylor was when he thought Brooke kissed Deacon of her own volition and he thought he was done with her. From the moment he found out it was not Brookes fault, he has known exactly where he stands.

Ugh, again, I hate that I'm defending Ridge :roll

Revolting isn't it? But yeah...at this point Ridge can't really even be accused of leading Taylor on...pretty much all of their contact is initiated by Taylor herself or their brats. This great love he has for Taylor, is something that exists only in Taylor, and the brats own heads. If the brats would butt out...this whole thing would die down in a heartbeat.

This Groundhogs Day has been going on so long I cannot remember if Ridge has ever initiated any of these Forrester Family Soirees or not? In fact, has he ever sought out these people on his own just to hang out with them? Has Ridge gone to Taylor's office to hang out and make small talk with her? Deacon has gone to her office, so I know they could quickly make the set. Has Ridge showed up at Steffy's when Taylor is alone and brought her favorite food that he drove 40 miles to get? Has Ridge ever told her or asked her if she is ready for him to come back to her? Has he told Taylor he is conflicted? I know he had no trouble when THEY were married telling her he was conflicted about his feelings for Brooke.

Ridge found out what Sheila did and it still took him three weeks and Brooke breaking her foot for him to move back from Eric's. He still hasn't put his wedding ring back on. Ridge doesn't know what he wants.

Maybe he has gotten too bloated from all the sunshine being pumped up his rear, by the Hamilton Gang, and he cannot get the ring back on his swollen finger. LOL

She went over there all big and bad, demanding that Taylor wrangle her adult daughter, and spouting off about destiny only to get smacked in the face with a harsh reality. Her husband is in love with two women. I don't know if she was in denial or genuinely didn't know but that what happens when go pick fights. You learn things that you didn't want to know. Now Brooke has to deal with the fact that it wasn't just a kiss. That her husband has feelings for another woman. Given her cockiness before, that gut punch of was well deserved. Bet she won't be crowing about destiny for awhile.

MOST of the characters deserve a good reality check right now!!!! :grrr

Taylor - needs to stop wasting her time for a man who doesn't want her. If he wanted her he would have left Brooke by now!!!

Brooke - lets Ridge control her. He can cheat on her with Taylor but she must ban Bill and Deacon from her property. She should make the same demands - no contacts with Taylor or it's over!!

Thomas - still a snake in the grass. He wasn't even trying to apologize to Hope today, he was praising himself. Douglas who?

Steffy - has the same disc since November last year. Mama, fight for Ridge. Daddy, leave your wife and GO BACK TO MOMMY RIGHT NOW!!!

Finn - Steffy's just not into him. If she could choose between 1) Finn, 2) Liam and 3) her parents reuniting, Finn would be her third and last choice. Run, run, run!!

Hope - she is dumber than ever when it comes to Thomas. She has learnt absolutely nothing from her previous nightmares with him.

Deacon - Sheila was ready to slay his daughter and he is still actively helping her. Totally hopeless and unredeamable!!

What happened to Quinn, Flo, Shauna, Carter, Grace, Paris, Zende? All vanished overnight. :frown

Reality check that bounced. Taylor is a lying manipulator. Ridge never said he was torn. Never said he was in love with her and never said he was deciding who to have a future with. Lies. There is no "might have well said" or "practically said." He did not say it. He doesn't get credit for what could be insinuated, only for what came out of his mouth.

I'm ready for Brooke to go on and confront Ridge with this -- which the writers won't have her do -- and then she can finally be free of them all.

Nah....Taylor's the one that needs a big fat reality check. Ridge never said to her that he's in love with two women..that is a lie. Taylor is now making things up just like her deranged daughter who said Ridge doesn't love Brooke. Lmao.

Shown on screen, Steffy blackmailed Bill. Yet, she told Ivy (and Liam too) that “blackmail is a crime”. Per Steffy’s own words, she IS a criminal cuz she has blackmailed.
