Re: Brooks Forester - Bachelorette 9 Contestant - Spoilers - Thread #2

[Piper61]

Seriously, all this speculation just saddens me. In this day and age, I was hoping as a society were moving past some of these stereotypes, etc.

I absolutely agree! Look for love, connection and real friendship. Please put these stereotypes away.
I also noticed that Brooks at first thought she wanted him to try on a wedding dress, he was not into that, and was relieved when she let him know that he would be trying on tuxes. However, I think he was willing to be a good sport.

Count me as four, plus this.

Brooks was totally going to play along as the good sport. I hope we continue to see more of his witty side.

I'm biased as I already had a huge Brooks crush but that was one of the best dates ever. I loved that it actually got a lot of airtime and showed their natural conversation and chemistry. It seemed more like 3 normal bach dates in one for all the quality scenes we got.

There are many sensitive, emotional men out there and I love seeing them shown for what they can be -- sexy, funny, charming, thoughtful and not afraid to show emotion. A man who looks like Brooks and can be brought to near tears talking about stuff that matters - his life - makes me melt into a puddle. I'll take that over a more traditional (and clearly by this thread still more acctepted) "tough", masculine jock-type everyday of the week.

The way he looks at her has me totally hooked and there is clearly a lot of attraction there. I really hope based on that date that their love story is going to be so compelling to watch that it's too good tv for TPTB to hide it and we'll get to see a lot of great moments!

Well stated relaxing! That story about his Dad hit home. There's so many children that face the same thing with their Dads. He's really a nice guy and that is so RARE on this show!

The date was so natural that you'd ask if they knew each other before, i loved there interaction and Brooks seems to be a caring and genuine guy so i hope all of you guys speculations are off and that they'll be happy forever if he's the one.

That's what I thought. Have they met before? Just kidding.

Can someone point me in the direction of the deleted piggy-back scene, thanks!

Can someone point me in the direction of the deleted piggy-back scene, thanks!

It's in the Yes To Love video. You can find it in the vid thread non discussion at the top of the vid section.

Anywhoo....changing course now. Totally not trying to stalk but Brooks has listened to JT's Mirrors and My Love on Spotify within the last few hours....sounds like a man in love. Just sayin' :giggle:

How do you know what song he listened to? :Smiley:

[Mustang19]

Thank you, Atem. :Smiley:

[atem]

I like Brooks even more after seeing him interact with Des on their date. He's totally my type (tall & lean with dark hair) but he has a great personality and sense of humor too. I would've been smitten with him by the end of that date for sure. I'll watch their date again tomorrow.

I already did this morning!

Hi. It's been a while since I've been on here. Didn't come on here at all during Sean's season. Remember I'm one of the ones who met Jef, but could never bring myself to like Emily? I was right about Emily. I was right about their relationship, too. I was right about Jef, as well. I kept a lot quiet about him.

I was unsure that I'd like Desiree. However, I'm here to report that I love Desiree. She is my favorite of all the shows (male and female). The only other ones I truly liked were Ashley and JT. But I like her more than Ashley. And I also truly like her spoiled choice.

Desiree's sweet, nice, humble, not materialistic, fun, whip smart. Very, very likable. Pretty much the complete opposite of Emily. And she's a very good Bachelorette. I love the way she deals with the guys and interacts with them, and has a lot more personality than most of the other Bachelorettes ever had. I did not need to worry. She makes this season very, very watchable.

Most of her guys don't bother me, either, and they usually do. Many of them are funny. I never liked Ben, though. Glad to see I was right again.

Many guys had gimmicks the first night. Compare that to Brooks just coming out of the limo and saying hi. No line, no nothing. Just nervous conversation. He was easy to overlook the first night, but looking back I can now appreciate his entrance. If anyone is there for the right reasons, he is. Even Jef had a gimmick to get noticed.

I consider myself a very good judge of character and people. I don't have what people label a gaydar, set up to pick out the gay folks. Why would you have one unless you're actively looking? It doesn't mean that I don't know when someone is gay. And I think I'm more accurate because I'm not being oversensitive. It's just very obvious when someone is gay. Brooks is not gay. At all. It totally threw me for a loop when people put that out there.

A lot of guys I've known have soft-spoken voices. A lot of guys wear rings on their right hand. (That's a new one).

I think some may have preconceived notions and are a little oversensitive.

Brooks is sweet, not at all full of himself, soft-spoken (I think his voice is sexy), fun-loving and from the look in his eyes, totally smitten with Desiree. Not conscious of the camera. Totally into Desiree. If he has ulterior motives they all must because he is the least worried about what the camera is seeing of all of them. He seems concerned only with Desiree when they are together.

He is so cute and sexy. I love his hair. What is this with the greasy talk? Where's the grease? It's just longer, which I happen to love on a guy. He has what I'd call great hair.

And I love that he just likes to talk. He can be sweet, laid-back, a good conversationalist, but is instantly ready to have fun and be goofy. It's a surprising combo.

I've been reading and I love how Brooks was instantly rich and had some ulterior motive just because he was living in Salt Lake. And he must know Jef, too. I also saw some people who seem to really dislike that there's another guy from Utah and that he wins again. I didn't find out someone was from Salt Lake until they were pulling up in the limos. And to come on here and find out that he wins. That made me laugh. What is up with that? I thought. But then again, I can see why he was chosen to be on the show and why she chooses him.

But people seem to have a problem with that. People wonder why they are often from Utah. Well, for one I believe there are a lot of Utah fans of this show. A lot of Utahns probably try out. And Utah is known for its good-looking women, so I don't see why that can't extend to the men. And, of course, they're looking for that as well.

As for comparing and/or linking Brooks to Jef, please. That's oversensitive Jef-dar there, too. Whether or not he's even met Jef, who cares?

I think Brooks is the best-looking guy they've ever had on this show. I'm not saying that because he's living in Salt Lake (I don't even live in Utah now). I'm saying it because he's downright sexy and handsome. And I don't usually call guys sexy. There's usually something off that makes it so it doesn't apply. But he just is in all the good ways.

No I don't know if he's single but he's always ready to mingle. Welcome home @brooksforrester glad my boi's back!

Wow his hair looks as though it has gotten thicker since the show somehow ! I'm not digging the untify scruffy look but Des probably does so its all good.

Enjoyed your post! Desiree is my most fav too. I didn't bother with Emily's so I guess that's why I can enjoy this one more than others!

Wouldn't mind if we banned the names Jef and Emily from this thread.
