The Bold and the Beautiful - MESSAGE BOARDS

Quote FataMorgana:

At this point Liam doesn't respect both either. Even if Steffy is pregnant or not, Liam's mairrage to Hope will be short because of his secrets. Hope would also be desperate if she took him back.

Quote jcyl:

I tend to agree, as Steffy should not be so needy and desperate. Any beautiful, accomplished, smart, woman I know and have known would have kicked Liam to the curb a long time ago. Steffy should be one of those women.......

I felt a little bad for Steffy in the bathroom, as that was defining moment........Liam had the opportunity to tell Hope that he was in love with her, but clearly still very much in love with Steffy......he knew Steffy was listening and he did not .....Some say he tried, but typical Liam, he lets everyone make his tough decisions......lol, except the one person who wants to, his dad......

To me, whatever Steffy does after this second opportunity that Liam had to end things with Hope and stay with her, is key. Of course, in CA there is that 3rd Strike Law, so I suppose Liam will get another chance to dump her and break her heart.....

When will Steffy learn that seemingly, Liam always turns to her when Hope breaks his heart, and so far, he always goes back.......please Steffy, get a clue, this bozo is not worth the effort......

Excellent post, I couldn't have said it better.

Great post. Both Steffy/Hope need to buy a vowel and get a clue. Liam not only wants his cake and eat too, he's'keeping recipe a secret from them both. Either way the wind blows he's happy with one or the other. the one he's with not so happy.

Quote Boatchick22:

The question itself is insulting. What exactly are you implying ? Are all men weak and pathetic like Liam? Is that normal behavior in men? Essentially it is an passive aggressive jab at women. Aren't you married? If so, then you should already know the answer.

Now about the character. I believe people do crazy things when they are in love. There is nothing desperate about having hope and faith in someone you love. She is trying to see this through to the end. Just as Hope, when she was stealing kisses from Liam, lost her virginity to liam, while he was sill married to Steffy.

Quote grandpadanucci: I have a difficult time trying to understand why Steffy knows that Liam is lying to Hope and still continues to be standing right next to him and everytime he throws a bone, she picks it up!! Forgive me for asking, but is this normal for a woman to act so desperate? In Liam's life, Hope has always been #1 and Steffy #2, so does this not bother her at all? No bashing please, just trying to understand a woman's desperation to want a man who is so wishy-washy!

Quote Houston777:

With all due respect, I think your statement Hope is # 1 and Steffy # 2 is about to change big time. And you almost make it sound unless a woman loves according to your rules that she is "desperate", NOT.

Quote grandpadanucci:



Forgive the hysterics, but I had to laugh at your post boatchick since being a male, this has nothing to do with gender, but since you brought it up, I could write a book on the the number of insults thrown at Liam by the majority of females on the MB! Yes, he is wrong, but for you to throw it back at me saying that this question in insulting is ludicrous with all due respect to you.

@Aces, thank you for responding without being offended. The way to go! Additionally, you are so right, neither male nor female gender understands each other; hence, the questioning is educational, warranted and debatable. Good post!

Thank you to all the posts who responded without taking this thread as an offence and your insight is amazing! Watchdog, Fata, jcyl, Inga, lunch, mollyt, among others...good posts! Your reasoning makes sense in many ways.

Quote Boatchick22:


Gp,
1) your question from your original quote "Forgive me for asking, but is this normal for a woman to act so desperate?
2) your second response "I don't recall a post about reading and understanding the "female" mind, perhaps, the human mind in general, but again, psychology is not my forte and would like to have the opinions of females as to whether there is normalcy in this type of behavior?"

Your asking if this is "normal behavior" because you psychology is not your forte. Your are making a generalized statement regarding women.
Now if you had asked if this is normal behavior for steffy or the woman on the show, that would be different because you would have been referring to a select few specifically.

Also, I am aware of your gender, as I implied that since you are married, you would know the answer to your own question, I believe you are married to a woman.

So, yes , you question regarding "normal behavior" was insulting. You made reference to the female mind, hence making it gender related.

Read your own quote, because really, I find it funny how you don't realize the implications of your own quote.
