How can Bridget give advice about dating men when she's a LESBIAN?!?

to the previous poster---she was giving advise about dating WOMEN ;)

And to you Bridget...thanks for keeping it interesting.

Actually, she was giving advice TO women ABOUT avoiding dating men who are jerks, so maybe being a lesbian is an advantage!

or perhaps the advice need not be taken as gender specific?

I think the point is that the advice is to everyone.
Just because she's a lesbian doesn't mean she doesn't know anything about heterosexual relationships.

Bridge, that was another interesting thing. Of course you rocked it. Like you always do. Step back, play it cool. Okay, good advice. :) Can't wait for the next one. Ciao. ;) :)

I like Bridget's take on the Nice Guy phenomenom, and I'm glad that she didn't just tell the guy it's because women are jerks, too. Excellent job!

This is a great topic! I know so many of my friends who date guys just because they're good looking, confident, and charismatic, but they turn out to be jerks. I agree that there are so many cool guys out there who tend to be a little shy. Girls~ give these guys a chance! There are so many great guys out there!

Excellent message. I despise guys who think they're failing because they're "nice guys," when it's more like they expect women to fall into their lap because of their "shortcut" around becoming a well-rounded, attractive person.

I agree with what you are saying here. I also think that some men/women want that "bad boy/girl" though. They want to be treated poorly for some mental reason from their childhood..but that is their issue not yours!

I think women just get desperate and so overlook negative qualities. Then again, a lot of women equate being a jerk with being confident.

Good advice again, Bridget. My advice is to STOP dating jerks right away. Who needs the drama? Take care of yourself!!

A good albeit short episode. I am curios as to how everyone knows Bridget is a lesbian,though I had no idea.

I was impressed with how Bridget addressed this issue. I must say that most women are not happy with guys who are jerks or guys who are too needy-both extremes seem to come from issues with confidence and just two dysfunctional ways of coping that will have to change if you ever want to be confident that she will want to continue dating you!
