Does she know he's gay?


i got mixed signals...she said she knew what she got into when she married him. does she know he's going to the ranch to meet his boyfriend?

reply

Uh....totally.

Absolutely. Cricket's dialouge was so suggestive tonight. When Sharon asked her what she'd do if she caught Blake with another woman her immediate response was "Another woman?", consoling Blake after the breakup with Boothe and the big bed with them sleeping on opposite ends of it was all solid evidence. When he comes out it will probably be one of those "I'm gay. I know." scenarios. I can't think of any reason why she's staying with him other than to keep up appearances. In any case, I despise gay men who marry women, have children, live a "heterosexual lifestyle" and have sex with men on the side.

reply

I was wondering the same thing - and the fact that she seems ok with it, why is she with him? Fear of being alone?

reply

Social and business purposes.

A married couple's business I guess is better for appearances, being that she is married she holds a certain status in the community, as well as the fact she has a child which does something for his masculinity.

Really, they both get something out of it and even though sexually they aren't into one another, or at least him, her... They seem to have a good friendship at least.

Really, outside him probably having sex with men, there isn't much wrong with their relationship. Then again, maybe they have a open marriage? It seems she was fooling around with her karate instructor perhaps...

Maybe she's gay too and both of them concocted this to keep up the appearance of heterosexuality?

I think it is sort of cute how they have this arrangement and support each other. Cricket is such a bitch, but I like her moments with Blake. Her non-romantic relationship with him is more of a loving husband-wife relationship than that of Sharon and her own husband.

reply

I despise men who lie and cheat on their wives, even more so if they don't use protection, HOWEVER I can respect (for lack of a better word) marital relationships based on friendship and non-sexual love. Sex can be overrated, for some, if they find those relationships to be hollow. Blake clearly makes Cr icket happy in other ways and she might be thinking "Why throw the baby out with the bath water?"

Personally, I come from a family of single women over thirty who would give their eye-teeth for the kind of compatibility and companionship that Cricket and Blake share. Moreover, after my grandfather's death, I discovered that he cheated on my grandmother at some point in their 70 year marriage. However, what I carry with me is the knowledge that my grandmother was the most special person in his life until the day he died (this, from his own mouth).

That said, GCB is a soap, and the odds of Blake and Cricket lasting is pretty low. However, I hope that the show (if it lasts) will keep them as best friends and not turn them into man and woman scorned by her down-low husband. It might even be interesting for the show to depict Christians who are not viciously homophobic.

She totally knows; aside from what's said, she said (almost word for word), "I knew what you were when I married you, & signed up for that."

reply

Agreed with all of this ..i would personally love their kinda relationship .. because sex to me is overrated and i would love a companion who i in a friendship non sexual kinda relationship

reply

She loves him even if he is gay. Besides he's the best looking man of all the husbands so that gives her statis.

How do we know for an absolute fact that hard work never killed anyone?

reply

Screw that. He's wealthy. That's all that any woman cares about. MOOLA!!!

Did you miss the part where is was shown that she's CEO of their company? She doesn't need his money.

If you can't walk and talk/text at the same time, do the rest of us a favor and get out of the way.

reply

No. She doesn't know. It'll be fun to see her reaction when she learns the truth.

Yorick- you are usually so much more insightful than this- she knows & has all along.

I have no idea who the hell you are and I know by now that she knows.

What was the point of this post?

There was only one man who could do magic-and he was from Jerusalem not Hogwarts!

reply

I'm nobody- really. We are usually on a lot of the same boards and I find you to be literate, well spoken and, as I said, very insightful. I truly did not mean to offend.

Well, thank you and I understand now

You're an idiot and you've made a complete fool of yourself.


Over this trivial matter? Hardly

Plus, you're very rude.


...Said the person who made this post?

But you made your way back home
You sold your soul, like a Roman vagabond
Yeah...

reply

[deleted]

Trivial? Is that why YOU're STILL talking about it THREE MONTHS later?


You and your buddy were the ones to reply to that then weeks-old post and I'm only replying now because I've returned from hiatus.

You're right. Whenever I encounter a troll, I tend to stoop to their level. Big mistake.


How was I ever a troll? All I ever did was tell your buddy that I did and would have already known I was wrong about such a trivial matter and asked what was the point of such a late correction.

Yeah she totally knows. He has permission to hook up with other guys. She does the same and her hooking up is in next week's preview.

bushtony and his mother suffer from Congential Stupidtiy and they didn't see it coming.

reply

She absolutely knows. My guess is they made an arrangement years ago and she has no problem with it.

reply

wouldn't it had been juicer if he hid it?

reply

She obviously knows, the funny thing is that her marriage seems a lot more loving than the other ones on this show.

reply

She definitely knows. He has his boyfriends and she has hers. She apparently knew from the beginning. But is seems that she was and still is in love with him anyway. That's seems to be why she "puts up" with it. He seems to care about her, but married her because he needed the beard.
