The Bold and the Beautiful - MESSAGE BOARDS

After watching the DVD Bill Sr. left Bill Jr., I think that Bill Jrs. agenda is now to take Forrester as well as sock it to Stephanie and Ridge, because he is Stephanies son. Bill will hate Stephanie because of his fathers obsession of her, over his mother. Still think Bill Jr. could turn out to be Erics though. Bill may also try and steal all the Logans away from Eric and Ridge too. What a hoot that would be. Stephanie may have to save the Logans for Eric and Ridges sake. LOL

Count her out! She's got her own problems to deal with! The biggest one being that she won't deal with them! I predict Brooke will do something! Just haven't figured out what it is! Psst...I'm predicting it because of the spoilers, so don't jump on me!

Well of course Brooke will save the day, after all she can do no wrong, according to these writers. Kinda like Phyllis over on Y&R. Its nof politically correct to have old fashioned ideals, or morals anymore. You are only proper if you are willing to sleep with everyone on the planet, then mooch off others. I wouldn't ever jump on you. You cannot help it that the writers are falling prey to popularity ran by liberal thinking people.

This is a Soap--so liberal thinking will be in the SL.

I don't see a reason to single Brooke out--she has been as moral as anyone else; just because Stephanie and Taylor didn't think so--doesn't make it so.
They thought what suited themselves.
Brooke has done no more wrong than those two (or others).
One might argue that Brooke has been more honest and a better person than both of them (and others)--
NOT that I want to...
I don't see a reason to go through all that blah blah blah...

Brooke has not been a moocher either--she has certainly contributed financially and earned her way. She married into Forrester--same as Taylor or Stephanie.
She is in the family as much as anyone.

So then its OK for women like Brooke and Phyllis to set their sights on married men with kids and that is perfectly acceptable? Would any of you want these kind of women going after your husbands, whether your husband reacted to them or not? If thats the acceptable way now, why even bother with marriage, its a farce. Its the wifes fault after all, some bimbo always knows best! LMAO

I don't know about Phyllis.

It's really not a laughing matter.
And the actual bimbo is usually the one who looses in the end...

As far as Brooke--she did not set her sights on Eric.
She fell in love with Ridge and set her sights on him.

If Stephanie and Taylor had not intruded on Brooke and Ridge--they would most likely have stayed together much sooner.

Taylor got what she deserved--intruding herself when Ridge was mentally off-balance--she knew that Ridge was in love with Brooke.

Eric went after Brooke.
Stephanie should have been a wife to Eric--she was more concerned with getting her jollies in the early marriage while he was working his butt off--
and if Stephanie would have been less concerned with controlling Ridge's life and more loving to her husband-- Eric would have not looked for somebody else
(he repeatedly tried to make it with Stephanie).

What is acceptable and who is at fault depends on the situation/circumstances.
It may be/or may not be the wife's fault.

Marriage is a union.
It cannot be taken for granted.
You have to stay connected to keep the union.
It can be --or can become a farce (a ludicrous empty show).

Many times if something begins wrong--it will end wrong.
This seems to be the case for both Stephanie and Taylor--
Eric married Stephanie because she was pregnant.
Ridge married Taylor because he was mentally off-balance--
and he thought she was his answer (through her self-served direction).

It would be nice if all marriages go the distance--
but-
Just because you manage to get someone to marry you--
doesn't mean you get to keep the marriage--
if it doesn't work.

Brooke isn't perfect--
but she is not to blame for Stephanie and Taylor's inability to hang onto Eric and Ridge.

I say--it's time to stop bringing up Brooke with blame--
and let's get on with the Program...

What about Thorne and Macy? Deacon and Bridgette? Didn't Brooke interject herself into those relationships? As well as Nick and Taylors? Brooke couldn't stand the thought of Nick with Taylor. I remember Brooke trying to bed Nick in that time period. I also remember how Macy disliked Brooke so much. The woman acts like only she should be happy, with no aforethought of what affect her actions will cause. She was free to move on with Ridge-she just didn't want any other woman, except Bridgette having Nick. How sick is that? Sharing men with your daughter, even if its after a divorce. Which, by the way, Deacon waa still married to her.

Thorne and Macy were divorced when Brooke and Thorne got together! Thanks to Ridge's scheme, with his wife's approval and looking on, he was able to come between the two. Thorne married Macy on the rebound, and it was a rebound. He realized soon afterwards, just what Ridge had done.

As for Deacon and Bridget, that union was doomed to begin with! Deacon fooled a young and gullible Bridget into believing he was in love with her and she married him! It doesn't excuse what Brooke did, but if it wasn't Brooke, it would have been someone else. Brooke was on the rebound from being rejected by the Knight in Shining Armor who had just went to great lengths to rescue her and then rejected her.

Brooke had no intentions of breaking up Nick and Taylor, it was Nick and Taylor who broke themselves up. Yes, Brooke interjected herself, but only because of Jack. She wanted the son she gave to Taylor safe from harm, and felt that Taylor was drinking again. It was Nick's old feelings for Brooke that resurfaced and caused a problem. Nick was the one who kissed Brooke, she did not return it. I don't think it's Brooke's belief to share her men with her daughter. She did talk to Nick before he began an affair with Bridget! She didn't like the idea of him involved with her, especiallly so soon after the Ridge and Bridget incident!

I think it would be something if Stephanie would convince Bridget and Nick to have Jackie M and Forrester combine forces and become one huge fashion house. They could have the flashy Jackie M styles and the elegant Forrester line. A win win for all

Sorry Touched, but Brooke was jealous about Nick and Taylor before Taylor contemplated getting pregnant. Brooke did not like the idea of Nick and Taylor from the start. And if Brooke would have left them alone, I believe Taylor wouldn't have given Rick the time of day. Brooke can dish out, but its always poor, poor Brooke if SHE has to take. If Ridge has always been her destiny, why did she cave in to Nick anyway? By the way I think her and Nick were way better together then her and Ridge. I liked Brooke when she was with Nick.

I was turned off BIG time when Brooke raced back to jump on top of Nick--because she was upset with Ridge hitting Rick!

The thing for me--is that the constant rehash criticism of Brooke is SOOOOO over-done.

You could dwell on the "what abouts", "ifs" and so-forth with the other characters as well as with Brooke.
I guess one reason she gets it more--is partly due to the fact that she gets more air-time.
Others have had just as much sick behavior as Brooke.

I am just so OVER all the constant blah blah blah in regard to Brooke--particularly the really OLD and REPEATED blah blah.

Guess that means I should just start skipping it--
or maybe skipping more of it--ha
