Looks like there’s some drama in celebrity news with Kelly Ripa. It turns out that she’s “disgusted” by ABC’s reality shows The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. According to UsMagazine.com, Ripa blasted the show, saying that she can’t stand the idea of women fighting over one guy, adding that women “are too special to be arguing over a guy.” Ripa thinks both reality shows are “creepy.”
In celebrity news, not everyone has love for the Bachelor franchise apparently. What do you do if you’re vying for the heart of someone another person is also interested in?
Cupid’s Advice:
When you’re first getting to know someone, there’s no way to be sure that you’re the only person they’re seeing. There’s always a little friendly competition at the beginning of a potential relationship. Cupid has some tips on what to do when someone else is interested in the person you’re trying to snag:
1. Act your age: Some people like to act immature or childish to get someone’s attention. That is not the way to do it. While using a childish voice or teasing a potential partner may get you temporary attention, it’s no way to keep them interested for the long term.

2. Confidence: It doesn’t matter what you do, what you wear, or what you say if you don’t do it with confidence. Be confident in your walk, be confident in your flirting, just be confidence. Confidence is attractive because it shows that you know you’ve got what they’re looking for.

3. Show interest: This might seem obvious but the best way to grab someone’s attention is to show genuine interest in their lives. Ask them about their friends, their favorites, and maybe try out a hobby or two that they enjoy. This shows them you’re interested and makes them want to get to know you better.
