"The Date Doctor"
Do you think that learning how to flirt and attract a man is what these women need to learn? I mean, look at Lisa1. She could flirt like a son of a gun, and I'm sure could get men to sleep with her, but what does that accomplish?

Most women know how to flirt and talk to people. What women need to know (some of these women in particular)is how to size up a guy that you are dating, learn if the two of you are compatible, if he is a nice, quality guy, etc. Then, take it to the next level and learn what a healthy relationship is and how to get beyond flirting and dating and get one. More like the stuff Dr. Phil does.

Many of the women in the SO house have no idea what a healthy, intimate relationship is (their parents didn't have one), and flirting won't help.

I seem to remember the Date Doctor doing more productive work with a housemate last year. Does anybody else recall this?

I, personally, think they should leave all this 'man stuff' and dating stuff alone and stick to the issues. They are in a house where they can't even watch tv but can take time out to go on dates (fake as they may be). These LC are constantly giving the impression that a woman MUST have a man in her life to be validated - what kind of skewed thinking is that???

Couldn't agree more Pixel and Beck..and you're right..if they were going to "go there" it seems they should be given more serious advice..the Dating Doctor is a joke. What the women need is relationship advice..I don't think any of them needed to be taught how to flirt. Ridiculous to invest time in such hogwash.

I'm trying to figure out which member of the SO staff is related to Dr. Love. It would have to be nepotism that got him that spot on the show, no?

Would you take dating advice from him? I think he makes the women look like love-starved predators. Any woman can get a date (if she's not picky). Why not focus on how to weed through the losers, not just attract more of them. Jodi making "bedroom eyes" at strangers who happen to stop at a cafe? Great advice, Dr. Love.

Hmmm never though about how he even got that spot on the show..you're probably right that he's related to someone. I think he's aweful and that he gives advice aimed at desperate woman. Especially as far as Jill and Jodie's session goes..he even encouraged them to feel free to pursue men who were sitting with another woman in a cafe (for example) this seemed so wrong to me.

I agree SR. When he had Jodi and Jill out to the little cafe doing their enter routine I bout died. They have so much more to work on than trying to attract a man.

BUt he sure is getting his face on SO a lot this season.

Thank you for saying that!!!! It's so true. No man is going to want to date any of these chicks without having their issues resolved. The LCs insult millions of their viewers by making it sound that the most important part of this "process" is learning how to date and flirt.

How about self esteen building? How about healing old wounds that still sting and affect every aspect of their lives? Learning how to chat a guy up while still a mess, not a good idea!!

11. "RE: The Date Doctor"
I agree.. lets focus on taking care of that person instead of pushing them out on date.. if they dont like themselves, how on earth are they gonna like anyone else? This could lead to false hopes to any future houseguests who think they are gonna get on the show just to get a date..
For example, Susan (season 1) did NOT want to work on her dating,she kept telling Rhonda this is not what she wanted. she wanted to work on her past, finding her dad.. But Rhonda insisted she went out on date. It seemed like thats all Brenda did... ( maybe that was her goal? i dont remember exactly)is go out on dates. Maybe Rhonda has no dating life, so shes living vicariously thru the HG?

100% agree , these gals need to learn to stand on their own two feet, without a romantic relationship! How about the LCs advising the single HGs to examine why they feel they need a partner?

Relationships can be wonderful. But CHOOSING to be single can also be, IMO, a perfectly healthy and rewarding option, especially for the HGs who need to become whole people before seeking a relationship!

7. "RE: The Date Doctor"
Wouldn't you think the women could learn more from a successful female flirt who actually gets men's attention? Like an Eva Longoria, or Tyra Banks...? Of course they have bodies to die for, that MUST be a requirement...LOL. Okay, then, Kirstie Alley, she's normal size.

Or at least from a man who women love to flirt with, like maybe a George Clooney or (fill in the blank)?

There's something weird or tacky about getting that advice from that guy. It's more like his fantasy being acted out. "If you could have a woman flirt with you, what would turn you on?"

Better from a successful women, IMO. (Not an SO graduate, please)

LOL! Yeah it was like hanging a greasy pork chop in front of a starving dog! He really looked like he was going to wet himself.
Maybe the Love Doc is IV's unwanted step-child?

I agree Blue..there's just something about him?..George Clooney would be great but probably way too distracting LOL Good idea about having a woman..this would make more sense..I think Queen Latifa would be more appropriate

I would like to see more emphasis on (relevant) job counseling/training. IMO, this is more important and practical than dating. But then, I feel this way as I was laid off from a top university after many years of service.

There is something about the Date Doctor thats just darn creepy. I dont know if he seems gay ? If I were any kind of expert in dating, etc, I'd make sure Jodi NEVER EVER "devours" anyone with her eyes again , ICKY !

Last season. Bethany was sent to a dating expert. I can't remember if it was this season's "Date Doctor" or someone else. His advice was much better, though. Being sexy meant being approachable. And, real. It had nothing to do with "sexy" clothes or having sex. And, he didn't suggest flirting. He emphasized having fun. And being fun to be with.
