Ridge is the most sought-after bachelor on The Bold and the Beautiful. Every woman wants him. Even Taylor and Brooke won’t stop fighting over him. Yet, he couldn’t be any more wrong for any woman.

Mr. Wrong

Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) thinks he’s hot since he’s in high demand. For nearly 40 decades, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Taylor (Rebecca Budig) have fought over him. He’s allowed it to happen. Ridge enjoyed the chase and loved being part of the love triangle.

Because of this, Taylor and Brooke are convinced that he’s the best man in Los Angeles. They act like he’s the only eligible bachelor in town. By the way, we can’t wait for Nick’s return to B&B! (Jack Wagner drops his bold plan to win Brooke back on B&B.) It’s time for both ladies to wake up and realize that Ridge isn’t all that. He’s far from Mr. Perfect or Mr. Right.

Cold Feet?

Ridge claims that he’s committed to Taylor since he never was. However, there are moments when he has Brooke in the back of his mind. He wishes that he were in her bed instead. Ridge hasn’t forgotten about the showstopper. Brooke won’t let him. She reminds him of it every chance she gets.

Ridge might feel like he’s committing to Taylor, but his heart still lies with Brooke. But that doesn’t mean he’s right for her, either. Whenever he’s with Brooke, he can’t commit. He keeps Taylor on the back burner for when he gets bored or upset with Brooke. And come to think of it, Ridge and Brooke were engaged.

So, what happened there? Why didn’t they ever make their relationship official? Ridge claimed he didn’t want a big, fancy wedding. He also didn’t want to plan anything. But the well-renowned designer wasn’t inspired to create a wedding dress for his destiny? That proves that Ridge is afraid to commit and never will.
