The Bold and the Beautiful - MESSAGE BOARDS

I was very proud of Eric when he heard what Donna had to say about Marcus and why she didnot tell him the truth about him earlier. The looks on Ridge,Thorne,and Felicia's faces were pricless. Look kids(adults) they need to accept the fact that Eric has moved on and doesnot want Stephanie anymore. This isnot the first time they divorced (this makes it the 3rd time) and let's face it all the divorces were HER fault. Stephanie as usual has driven Eric out of her life and has not one to blame but herself.All of this US vs Donna is just going to make Eric stick to her more. Frankly I was pleased when Eric once again told these dumbbells that he was not making a choice between them and Donna.It is a shame that here is their FATHER and they have absolutely no RESPECT for him or his choices whatsover. No matter who they all had affairs with and married Eric despite it all wanted nothing but the best for them and to be happy. But when it comes to him they want him to stay in unhappy marriage out of some twisted childhood(Felicia and Thorne both know their upbringing was not ideal because let' face mama may have had 5 children but was mother to only ONE child and it was Ridge because it that was not the case Kristen would not have left for N.Y. Felicia wouldnot have went to Europe and become a wild rebel and maneater and Thorne wouldnot have an inferiority complex in comparison to Ridge) notion that their father remain in an unhappy marriage with a destructive and controlling woman,who by the way always says she does what she does for the sake of her family- yeah Brooke got raped last year as a result of it is a joke. What they need to do is learn to accept the situation be civil and try to help Stephanie get on with her life or in the end lose Eric entirely.

I like the way Eric handled the situation today.
Eric is a classy man--he was messed up by Stephanie many years ago with her lies and manipulation (when he was in love with Beth Logan)....
He is far too good for Stephanie.

I was disgusted by Ridge's comment of nobody being in Eric's corner later.
Ridge certainly has continued to support Stephanie despite all the vile things she has done.
Eric continues to love Ridge as his own son after learning
the truth that Stephanie kept from him...

Those grown children should aceept that Eric finally got enough of Stephanie---he put up with her longer than he should.

Thank-you somebody agrees that Eric in this late stage of his life deserves to be happy.If Stephanie cannot make a life for herself and be happy then that's her PROBLEM she had more than enough tries with Eric and ruined all of them. Ridge needs to go somewhere(The Maronne empire now belongs to Nick,so where can he go/foiled by his half -brother in this regard)and take Felicia and Thorne with him. What they donot seem to realize is that sometimes you reach a point in life,when you look at your situation and think about wheter the marriage or job just is not working there comes a time to just try to find some happiness with the time you have left especially when you have wasted do much of your time and engery on something that will never change(People like Stephanie NEVER do)and make the best of your remaining years.

ITA with you...Eric is a classy guy! I ROTFL and I kept rewinding and pausing to look at the shocked faces that the Brats made when they realized their plan went south.
I was so glad the smug looks were wiped off their faces...Every one of them have brought scandal to the family and Donna having a child when she was a teen is not a scandal. I was so glad he understood why she paniced and didn't tell him right away. IT WAS YUMMY! LOL!
Now the war is really going to be on I guess...

I don't think that the children begrudge Eric a new hot sexy wife, even if that woman isn't much older than they are. BUT they resent VERY MUCH, that Eric promoted his wife to be part of the chief staff, making decisions that cost an arm and a leg and damage the firm SEVERELY! That lounge wasn't a bad idea, but all Donna did was run it by Eric and he said "Of course we will have it, it's a great idea!" so it was put up. None of his children (his GROWN children) were asked. What happens if Donna proposes to make Forrester Creations an american equivalent of "Beate Uhse"? My guess is, that all Eric will say is:"Of COURSE! We won't sell gowns any more! In the future all the customers can buy here is sexy lingery, leather whips and all the other "toys" that a domina needs. SEX SELLS so that will make us ALL very rich and all the men in America AS HAPPY, AS I AM!"
There's no such fool as an OLD fool!

Hello, I agree with on the performance of Eric about Donna and Marcus, it's about time eric got some backbone when it comes to that family. i think ridge,thorne,and felicia need to quit acting like their mother and let the drama go.stephanie has cause so much drama to her children's lives and now their treating their children the same way. heck,he got mad at his own daughter for not being loyal to the family. she was doing what she was to do staying out of it.but, now like steffy says he hasn't gave a crap about her in 4 years why the interest in her friends now.and for the beth logan storyline.beth hasn't been in the storyline for so long and after many years they are saying she has dementia.i knew the day she was back on the show the way she was acting how she was acting scared and afraid i told my mom that she must of had a stroke and lost her memory. and then yesterday she told katie she may have dementia. i knew the signs because my dad has dementia. this logan family has been through so much this year. it is a messed up family but least they have each other unlike the forresters.i just hope and pray brooke finally sees through ridges bs and leaves him for good.oh one thing about the forresters they forget about all the past and quickly blame others like when stephanie kept ridge's real father a secret. ridge grew up all theses years believeing eric was his dad when he wasn't.its time for the logans to stand their ground when it comes to the forrester
family

Way to go Eric. You handled the situation great. I wouldn't have taken anything for the looks on those three children's faces as they listened to him. When Eric first confronted Donna, they thought he was going to throw her off, and Thorne had a very smug look, but that quickly changed as time went on. I believe Eric sees Marcus as a very well mannered young man who loves his mother, which he does. Donna probably should have told Eric sooner, but the end result was priceless.
Now I guess the three brats will go off to their corner and pout awhile since their plan backfired.

I'm happy Eric finally put his foot down with those spoiled brats. It was great to watch them exit his office walking backwards so that you couldn't see their tails between there legs as they exited. I knew Eric wouldn't be judgmental about this unfortunate situation, that's not the type of man he is and I admired how he welcomed Marcus into the family as well. I hope everything works out.

Eric and backbone do not belong in the same sentence. He is just being an old fool again. Donna would not give her "honey bear" a second look if not for the money & viagra

So, what Eric is saying is that as long as you are YOUNG, BLONDE, and can ROCK HIS WORLD, you can seduce his greiving(?) son all in an attempt to get back at a woman you hate, play on your granddaughter's vulunerable state of missing her deceased mother, with hold VITAL information about your life that has a direct effect on him, and STILL be seen as someone who doesn't keep things from him, someone who is opened, honest and values him as a man????? Is that right????

Eric is just showing there's no fool like an old fool, that he hasn't learned one THING from being with women who attacks members of HIS family, who lie to him, seduce his sons, and EVEN sleep with a son while married to him. Eric looked like a FOOL standing there blabbering about how Donna is completely OPENED with him, that she wouldn't hold anything back from him, that there are no secrets, ONLY to learn there is HUGE secret she's keeping from him. Eric placed his fate in a woman who decieved his on son, who played on his grief and vulunerable state. ANY woman capable of doing that, has proven she isn't the kind of person that cares about people.

As Eric's wife, donna owed it to him to be opened about the subject of CHILDREN, she has one and that's not something that anyone forgets or feels doesn't effect her spouse. BUT, does Eric get it, no all he cares about his proving his naysayers WRONG about his new sex kitten. Eric being seen as a man of respect, a man with a backbone and a man of loyalty, is nothing more than a bald face lie. What is respectable about screwing your son's ex-fiance???? What does having a back bone have to do with allowing blonde hot females walk all over your family and the business they ALL built. AND loyal, to WHO???? Certianly not Ridge, he proved that screwing Brooke, CERTAINLY not Thorne, he proved that screwing that woman that played him for a fool MERE days after a wedding that didn't go on?????

Eric is a joke as man and a human being.
