Re: Brooks Forester - Bachelorette 9 Contestant - Spoilers - Thread #10

The thing is, Brooks left his HTD talking about being one step closer to the union of marriage with Des. You don't think marriage unless you love the person. So if Brooks cooled his jets again there was a catalyst for that. It can't just be about not saying he loves Des because with CH, she said she won't force those words if she can feel it.  Then she talks about hoping for a proposal from Brooks. There's more to Brooks' apprehension.  Could be talk about a proposal or something .

There you go again barb saying what I am thinking.. 

Just keep it up today so I can get some work done at the office.

Ahaha! People might think we're one and the same:lolpanda:

So, NannyMargie and I wanted to knowing you noticed that only Brooks had tears in his eyes when he got his rose? He totally feels for Des and how hard it is for her . When she showed emotion and broke down he felt for her. Also check how many times she stared over at him during the RC even with Zak leaving. They didn't even show her returning to the RC after Zak to get her hugs from the guys. Has that been done before?

I'm not sure. I haven't watched since Ashley's.

This is what Des said about her HTD visit with Brooks' family....


Brooks's Family
It seemed like forever since I last saw Brooks in Madeira, so I couldn't wait to see him and meet his large family. I am always very comfortable with Brooks and love how engaging he is in conversation, so our time in the park brought me right back to where we left off. Since his confidence throughout this journey has waivered, I shared a list of our best memories to reassure him of my strong feelings for him. It worried me that he still needed reassurance, so I did have questions for his family to see if he is ready for a committed relationship.



Meeting a family that included nine siblings and their partners along with his mother, I was prepared for anything. His mother and siblings told me that Brooks is ready for a committed relationship once he meets the right girl and that he would be the best partner to have in life. After a great day, I felt confident in my relationship with Brooks and couldn't wait to see him again.

Can anyone figure out what Desiree is wearing when they are hugging on the beach?

Did you see this?

The relationships are now at a make-it-or-break-it stage and I can see my life with any of the three men left. After that hometown rose ceremony, I was 100 percent officially in love and feeling good.

I like all 3 guys but I really believe the 100% officially in love statement is for Brooks. Though its clear to see her feelings are intensifying for Chris and Drew, but 100% officially in love just points to Brooks IMO. Her comfort level with him and his family was ahead of the rest.

Do we know that Brooks officially leaves the island or is that speculation? I've always thought he doesn't leave (leave Antigua, that is) and that's just the impression TPTB want to give.

You got me. I can't believe she put that 100% in there.

[Guest]

Why wouldn't she put that 100% in? She was.

I just hope that 100% panned/pans out.

I still remember working on that banner for episode 2 (I never finished it) before the season started and in those pics, I've never seen her so happy.  She was literally glowing in all of them (the official and this one pic of a lady at the hotel that took a pic with her).  Then for her to say she wanted to meet his family from that date?  Wow.

[eusebeia]

Can I just say I loved their banter about the ducks?    So nice to have a few seconds of them just kidding around.  We get told all the time how witty they both are, but all of that seems to get cut.   
 
OTOH Brooks wasn't kidding when he talked about his wife being "absorbed" into his family.  When his four brothers swamped Desiree for a group hug, she almost disappeared!  She seemed to like it though--she seemed very enthusiastic about being in a big family in her VO where she talked about how small her own family is. (And clearly she's not close with Nate any more--hardly ever sees him)

[Judiful]

Desiree gets along with everybody so she had the best hometown visits. Oh, they were all so awesome....but she was on cloud nine to finallly be at "home" with the Foresters...(her future in-laws. )
