General Blogs About The Bachelorette 9 - Desiree Hartsock - Discussion

Thanks syd. I had a hard time writing it, but I feel good about the way it turned out. I'm glad you liked it. I know everyone doesn't see it the way I do, and that's okay.

what do you think brooks meant when he said to his mom & sis that he has "crazy love" for des? i thought it was so interesting he said that. i sort of see it that he loves her but his feelings are crazy and all over the place due to this crazy show. that's the best i can come up with right now.

I think you are spot on, gab! How in the world can you know how you feel when you spend most of your time alone or hearing other guys talk about their great connection with her? Crazy is putting it mildly!  

Bee, fabulous job on your blog!!

Gab, I think he meant when you are consumed by that person. When all your thoughts are of that person. He said when they were apart he would forget, but, I don' t think that was true. Brooks spent way too much time in his head and because they were kind cut off from the real world he had no one to bounce those thoughts off.

bee... this was beautiful, and I do so appreciate the honesty you brought in the breakup. I can only imagine how difficult this was to blog, thank you for taking the time to do this.

nutty and latergator  

latergator, after I had been "agonizing" over it all week, it finally came to me. Imagine the agony of actually having to live through each moment of it.

I took the words from each of them and then interpreted how I would feel if that would have been said to me in that situation. I think all of us can relate to having a broken heart. :pinkcry:

bee, I can honestly say I have never been through anything like that before.  my heartbreak came with the sudden and unexpected death of my husband.  that break up was totally different.  but I did/do know love, I know it when I see it. watching monday's show was the closest I have ever come to that kind of pain again.  you captured it with not only the words but the pictures.  again I thank you for that. yesterday (saturday) was 18 years since my heartbreak and your blog was a catharsis of sorts for me.  now I'm looking forward to monday for healing once again.

Oh wow...18 years long, yet seems like yesterday. I'm so sorry you had to endure that kind of complete and total devastation. Not only is your heart broken, half of it is now gone. I know there must be similarities to draw from and I feel peace knowing my little ole blog was healing to you in your time of need.

I won't take the credit. Someone is still taking care of you. Thanks for sharing that. :hug:
