I disagree. Brooks is into Des but he smartly is not in the Bachelorette Bubble which I think is healthy. Every other guy is tripping over themselves to tell her. I also think it will be that much more significant  WHEN he does say it.

I think Brooks is totally trying to keep his head and out of the Bubble. If he is indeed F1, she will appreciate his thinking outside of the circumstances and seeing that he was trying to keep this a real relationship despite the push the show has for premature expressing of emotions. Our Brooks is still in the real world, not in the clouds. I don't doubt his sincerity, nor his feelings for her and this gives me a new respect for him.

ITA. The others aren't strong enough to fight the pull from the Bach Bubble. The others are drunk in the:koolaid: . Racing to express their feelings without thinking things through. That's why it might :atomic: 
in their faces.

Zak's sister stating she didn't want Zak to be hurt. Des talked about them starting out as friends and sis asked "Is he past the friend zone now?" Or something close to that.

Thanks. Is that the 'exclusive'?

Glad it's Zak's sis and not Brooks' fam.

It's the only clip I've seen but I've been doing other things too so might have missed something. Do they usually show more than one?

Well that was strange. As someone said up thread, something wild has to be happening with Brooks for them to show that. I'll stick with him pulling himself out. I think it may scare him that her feelings are stronger than his.

I know Drew isn't f1 but she does seem very happy when she's with him. She seems to like playing with his hair when they're kissing.

Des looked uncomfortable at Zak's house. Poor guy. I like him but he's in the friend zone as far as Des is concerned.

She's not into singing, etc.  Zak is too over the top in everything.

I noticed she mentioned the being witty and sarcastic and she mentioned that in her Red Carpet interview as to what she wanted.

Was Brooks talking to his sister?  I wonder how many of them were there?

Nothing was said about that for the preview. Just in general, I guess.

You know what I was thinking. Des told Brooks on their first date how she loves the guy more than the guys have loved her. Brooks listened. Because he probably know the other guys have said they loved Des and he knows he's apprehensive he might not want to be what Des has experienced in the past and backdown to let her find someone who can surpass what she feels for them. The only thing is, noone will come close to what Des feels for Brooks so it's her catch 22. In the end, Brooks will realize his feelings for Des.

I wonder if her brother doesn't have something to do with it.  He sure did look sneaky in the hall.  I sure hope not cus Des would really be upset if he told Brooks anything.

Did you guys notice Desiree said adverbs to Chris Harrison?

No, but I noticed she said (several times) Brooks's, instead of Brooks'. Drove me batty!!
