Yes she is and I really hope they are happy. But for us Bres fans we are still going thru our 12 step program. I was on step 3 but I think I fell back to 2. giggling

As a Brooks and Des fan I can honestly say I am glad that it worked out the way it did. I think that Brooks sensed the urgency that Des had to get married. I think he questioned not only her feelings, but how desperately she would feel towards others if he wasn't the one. The entire breakup scenario was either real and that's truly how she felt...or if she was acting...then what is she doing now? No one can turn on a dime as she did. If it was acting then why was she so hesitant to have Chris watch it. She could have told him the producers wanted me to react this way, and I did. BUT she didn't want him to witness any of it. So I have to believe that her feelings and thoughts were true and she wanted to hide them from Chris. I think that at AFTR, when Brooks heard she was engaged, it completely solidified his previous decision. They are not meant for each other. Brooks will never SETTLE....

I would love to be able to do do-overs . . . at least until I got tired of it.

I want the do over where we are in control not TPTB. We would not push would just let nature take it's course.

What notice to the ATFR, is Des clearly still has feeling for Brooks, she was very attentive to Brooks. She turned her body to listen to him. She still had love in her eyes. I believe she was still hoping for something with him but when he said what he did that dashed her dreams again.
When she and Chris was on stag on the couch, she didn't turn her body to him when they would kiss she just turn her head. Chris kept rubbing her shoulder, she was just stiff she wouldn't lean into him. He k Emily did a better job with Brad.
I agree with you I think he loved her more than he admitted to himself. His head was in control because his heart still had walls around it to really feel everything he was thinking.

When she said she loved him he was shocked but it was too late to change the course he was on. Why else at the end of their walk he says should I go? He said he didn't know what to do or what to say. Maybe he wanted her to say stay, but all she said is what else are you going to do and you said what you wanted. I don't think he was crying that hard and that emotional just because he broke her heart.

Also when she said I wanted you to meet my family, he said I was hoping but I didn't know how conflicted you were with the other relationships.

I agree.. I think his walls were almost down and she likely realizes that now, especially after watching back his crying, pacing and reluctance to leave.

If she could have just pulled herself together on the pier and said, "we've got this beautiful day and this catamaran at our disposal, let's just take a ride so we can talk this through" - things could have turned out differently.

I'm sure there's TONS of things she wanted to say to him at ATFR, but could not out of respect for Chris.
