Top 5 Love Lessons from the Bachelor (Juan Pablo, Ep 3)

  1. Date location don'ts: cold and dirty city harbors (that you intend to swim in), sport stadium hot dog kitchens (that you intend to make out in), and bungee-jumping bridges next to busy 8-lane freeways.

  2. Ladies, are we going to have to say this every week? If you don't want to do something, are scared of doing something, or are not ready to do something, then don't do it -- even if a guy you like is pressuring you to "do it for me." (It's like this whole season is one big metaphor for sexual peer pressure!)

  3. Makeup is fun and glamorous and, often times, pure magic. But it is NOT a necessity. A relationship in which you cannot let your partner see you "without your face on" is not one built on honesty or openness.

  4. Don't take dating advice from your mom (even if she gives it to you from beyond the grave).

  5. If you are a single dad dating 25 women at the same time, making out with many of them in a single group date, and frolicking around with them in their skimpy bathing suits at a pool party -- all on national television -- then you probably shouldn't judge the appropriateness of other adults' love lives. Homophobia and hypocrisy ain't sexy.
