It is confusing, but maybe she was speaking from the perspective of that period in time, where she didn't know what he was saying prior to the breakup. I wonder if he even told her that he had spoken to CH before their date.

They probably don't focus on the negative when they are together. Brooks probably wants to forget that day happened as well as Des.

Sorry but you can't just forget that day happened. You have to work through it.

RS said it shortly after the filming of the FRC, so if his info is correct, there wouldn't have been time for them to "take time", though that would be quite the reasonable way to go.

Just that Brooks was final 1, that's it. All I know is that I've never been more confused about a season...even Jillian's!

Its interesting that in both Des and CH blogs its clear that they both see/feel that Brooks was just not feeling the same way Des felt and that its a good thing Brooks was honest back then before letting things get more complicated. This is confusing -then why didn't he just go home in this episode?
It would be "out of left field" if Brooks came back and was like "got ya!" "i do love Des and want to propose!"

I don't know. Maybe it was better for him to have this realization and for her to understand that he wasn't at the same place, needed more real-world time, before the show ended instead of after??

Just tells me she picked a default guy. That's all it tells me. She would have said 'YES' to Brooks proposing to her, but he didn't.

I truly believe this is just stepping stone leading to where Brooks and Desiree are headed. The look in his eyes when his Mom and Sis spoke of how adorable Des is...was the look of love. He's just struggling with his over analytical mind. They are in love with each other ..and I think they are both suffering from this most painful time in their lives...OMG next week can't come quick enough for me...

I mentioned this look earlier. It stands out because it just doesn't fit in with the rest of Brooks in the episode. He looked like a smitten, in love guy. He looked as happy in that brief second as Desiree when she saw him arrive on the beach. It was such a true genuine smile, one we've not seen a lot from him. So I know he had feelings there. But what he said later just didn't jive with that look. I can't figure him out.

I do think her brother Nate knew how Desiree felt about Brooks before meeting Chris S (I still don't know if he met Drew) when she talked about each guy before the Final 4 HTD.

Totally. When he was talking to his sister and mom, he had a huge smile on his face when he said "She just catches you off guard doesn't she?" You can tell he adores her. I just think at one point, he got so much in his head about her dating other guys that he sort of just shut down and wouldn't let her in. I honestly think he had this wall put up the entire time just in case she didn't choose him and that's why he wanted her to be in love with Chris or Drew. To make it easier on himself to put these walls up and not get hurt again. I can't wait to see how this all concludes!
