WHO AM I? My name is Ridge and I am the most handsome man in the world. I could spend hours looking at myself in the mirror if I just had time. But I am always so busy dealing with all the women around me that I can't.  I am the son of famous Eric and Stephanie Forrester. But actually I can't be so sure about that. There have been rumors flying that I might be someone else's than Eric's. Or maybe I'm not Stephanie's? But never mind. I am not scared of anything, not anymore, because I have been through so many problems in my life. I have been in prison, I have been through many trials, I have annulled my marriages many many times (and how many divorces? Almost none! I'm so great, I've always found ways for annulling), I have been blind once, and lately I have been in the hospital often... (I beat up a few people to get there, but they all deserved it). I have been married so many times I don't even remember myself how many. Besides I can't count to more than three.  One, two, three. There! That's also about how many important women I have had in my life. Brooke, Taylor, Caroline. Then I've of course had some temporary relationships... and also one night stands... well well. All because I'm so handsome, superior and wonderful. LONG HISTORY WITH BROOKE When you heard about me for the first time, you also must have heard about Brooke Logan. She came to my house one evening and fell head over heels in love with me. And that's how it's been ever since. She can say anything, but I disagree. For the sake of my mental health I have to. I just have to have more than one woman totally in love with me at the same time, or I will have a nervous breakdown or something and go nuts. Anyway, Brooke and I married a few times, dated, she got pregnant a few times and did paternity tests, we went to a million dinners in Café Russé, we divorced and annulled our marriages, we fought for each other's love... I never had to fight, though, I am so handsome and wonderful that I can get any woman just by looking at her. Brooke and I have shared so much together. She believes we share a lot of chemistry. But chemistry has never been my cup of tea really, so I don't know about that. I used to sleep during high school chemistry lessons and dream about women... It really is no wonder that Brooke loves me so much. I have been there for Brooke through hard times, we've supported each other, I even helped her when she gave birth to our daughter, who was actually a daughter of my father's. I helped Brooke raise my father's kids (well, for a while at least) and they loved me as if I were their father. And that's no wonder, I am not only full of charisma around women but also good with children and nice to them. But I believe that when kids grow up, they don't need a father figure anymore, but rather someone to teach them about realities of life, so lately I have made it my top priority to teach little Ricky some truths about life by directing all my excess anger, frustration and evilness at him. I am sure he will one day realize that he should be grateful. I am sure Brooke is, not only for that but for everything great I've done for her. Brooke and I were so happy together once. Then it ended. For the first time before it had begun. For the second time for other reasons, and then again for other reasons.  THE END OF AN ERA? Yes, one day it was all over. Forever, as she said. Taylor and I were in Café Russé. I went somewhere for a while, I don't remember where I went and why, and it doesn't really matter because the writers just had to get me out of the picture for a second, so Brooke could talk to Taylor. She told her it was over, that she wasn't going to fight for Ridge - ME, that is - anymore. She told Taylor a lot of things. She was so good at it, that Taylor almost wanted to be her friend for a second. That didn't last long though, but anyway long enough. I was heartbroken, even though I didn't let anyone see that. Of course, what else did you expect, I had just lost my long time love and my greatest worshipper. Now I only had Taylor who wasn't enough to feed my ego. Anyway, I tried to pretend I was happy and I was, at least to some extent. Then Brooke started dating Thorne. My lovely mother Stephanie didn't like it, and to be honest, I didn't either. Then Eric came up with something brilliant, a way to break them up! I had a big part in that plan, and even though I tried to tell Brooke I didn't enjoy doing it, I did. Of course it was nice to be with Logan again... So I seduced her... just a bit, and in a second Brooke was all over me, she wanted me to kiss her, to lay her down on the bed and do anything, I could just see it in her eyes. I think I heard someone say the word no, or something, what was it, I don't know, I don't know the meaning of that word. I'm just wondering why on earth did Brooke have that disgusted look on her face all the time I tried to seduce her. That woman should know a good seduction when it hits her. She should've been honored, after all she was on the arms of God's Greatest Gift to the Earth, Ridge Forrester, me, myself and I. That Thorne is nothing, he could never have been anything real for Brooke. We all know that Thorne never gets what he wants. Especially when it comes to women. I also remember when we were children, Mum got me a nice little mirror when I wanted it but when Thorne wanted a new set of crayons, he didn't get them. Haha. By the way, now I realize why Thorne is not a great designing talent like I am. Anyway, I'm sorry I got sidetracked, what was I talking about? Oh yes, how I seduced Brooke in Venice. After Thorne had seen us, Taylor came in and we told Brooke about the little plan. Brooke said she never wanted me to touch her again and all that kind of stuff. I really didn't understand why, why would any woman not want me to touch them, kiss them, hold them? Well, she came along. Because I'm so great. I'll tell you more about that later. CAROLINE - AND DECISIONS Now I have to talk about Caroline. She was my first wife. Thorne and I fought for her (too).  But after I got Caroline (of course I got her, I always get what I want), she died. She had leukemia.  We had such a wonderful marriage. Caroline was like an angel, and now she is one. But I don't actually miss her. I have other women after me. They all want me. At least I hope so. I sure hope so. I'm married to one of them, Taylor, after trying out both Brooke and Taylor several times. I made a big decision. Still, I can't get Brooke out of my mind, because one woman isn't enough for me, as I think you should know by now, and especially if she is with someone else, I can't help but feel jealous. But well, I don't have to worry about my decision, I can always change it! It doesn't matter how often I change it.  Yes, I like looping back and forth between these two women. I like making decisions. I don't have to change my decision, I can just make it a little bit stronger. I can again say "Please, I need some time" and they give it to me. Making decisions- time is always so lovely. Big Bear cabin is a great place for that. All my women come there to feed my ego and tell me how much they love me. I just can't get enough of it! I am soooooo great. We'll see about that, where I will end up next week. We'll see.... With Caroline I never really had to make decisions like this. I just knew. She was the one...as much as someone can be the one for Ridge Forrester... of course I always have other women in my mind... It took me a while to realise how great she was though, it was during my wild youth, when I couldn't help unzipping my pants whenever I had a chance to do that. Still, she was mine for a while. It was easy to be with her. I never had to choose, I just had to fight for her, not too much of course because in the end no one can resist the charm of Ridge Forrester. HAPPILY MARRIED? Anyway, despite my other feelings of love towards all the beautiful women on earth and towards myself, I am married to Taylor right now. I've been with her for a long time. Of course marrying Taylor only once is not nearly enough. I have married her quite a few times, but I can't remember how many because as you may recall, I can't count to more than three and sometimes that's difficult too. I have failed my wedding with Taylor at least once, when Brooke was supposed to marry Grant. I ran there, but couldn't reach Brooke anymore. Taylor was angry. Thorne told her, that I ran over there, and I could have never stopped Brooke's wedding without proposing to her. Taylor and I were supposed to get married the next day. But Taylor said she won't marry me. And all because of that sneaky little Thorne! He wanted Taylor, and used every way to get her. But he didn't.... he never gets what he wants. TAYLOR- TWICE SHE WAS GONE My history with Taylor is, if not as long as what I have with Brooke, then at least full of stop signs. She sure is one hard woman to marry! I have had to try really hard to keep her with me this long, some really big, strange trouble always gets on our way. Twice she has also come close to dying. For the first time I totally lost her. She flew to Egypt and her plane crashed. I, of course, was devastated, and grew myself a nice beard. Brooke came to support me. We ended up marrying each other. We went to Morocco for a honeymoon and had dinner at prince Omar's place, he was a nice guy. We came back to LA, then a lot of stuff happened. I lost my sight, in an accident in the laboratory of Forrester Creations. A nice voluntary worker visited me while I was in the hospital. Later I got my sight back. And the voluntary worker turned out to be my dead wife Taylor, who was no more dead. She had been in Morocco all the time, with Prince Omar, who wouldn't tell her who she was and all that, poor Taylor had lost her memory. Anyway, I ended up wanting to divorce Taylor and marry Brooke again, as our marriage was no longer legal. I thought I had been with Taylor for long enough at that time and wanted to continue with Brooke. And the second time I lost Taylor, almost, was when she was pregnant with our twin baby girls. She got infected by tuberculosis. She was in the hospital and she would cough and do all that stuff all the time. It was boring time, I was alone at home and had no one to worship me. Except for Thomas, but he hardly worships me, I just have to play with him. Taylor almost died, she had an after life experience, where she met a homeless guy who told her to go back. Blah. I really believe that Taylor came back because she didn't want to let go of me. She loves me so much she can't even die. Only because I'm so great.  MOMMA STEPH'S LITTLE BABY? I also have to tell you about my mother. Stephanie is so lovely. She loves me so much, and she's also Taylor's best friend. I always get all of her attention and love. Sometimes I get furious at her but it only lasts a second or so, because I can't exist without her attention. I always get her support, except when I want to be with Brooke. And actually there I got her support once too, when Brooke wanted Eric. Yes. I'm her favorite child. I would do anything for her, too. I'll always be a momma's boy (don't tell anyone!). Mother Stephanie is a close second on my loved one's list. Who's the first, then? Guess! You can guess three times and the first two don't count. IT'S MY LIFE A while ago, everything was going great for me. I was living together in a big house with Taylor and our three kids, Thomas, Stephanie and Phoebe. Normal family life, you could say? Well, I don't think so. It was not like we would take our kids down to McDonalds or go play with them outside. Taylor and I just had "interesting" discussions on all the relationships going on in the Forrester family and once in a while we made love, Taylor was trying to invent new hot things for us to do... maybe she was insecure, afraid that she wasn't as good in bed as Brooke or Morgan. And truth be told, she isn't. But at the time being married to her was the only option, and I guess it still is, mostly. But in the middle of this "normal" family life something came up. This woman, Morgan, from my past. When she came, I told her she was my true love. I was glad that she came, I needed a change, a new woman to worship me while Brooke was mad at me. Morgan had left me back then, decades ago. Of course that's why she was my true love, I mean, no woman leaves Ridge, Ridge leaves the women (for another woman).  Because Morgan left me before I had time to leave her, she will always be my true love. Anyway, I found out that she had left because she was pregnant with my baby. I was devastated. She says she never survived the loss of her child, whom she was forced to abort. So she made up this really complicated scheme and we made love. Being the horny man that I am, I didn't bother to check if sleeping with Morgan was what Taylor really wanted me to do nor did I stop to think if sleeping with someone to make her pregnant is actually the kind of thing a normal, smart person who loves his wife would do, even if his wife would actually have wanted that.  So I slept with Morgan, it was great, to be with yet another woman who wanted me, and she got pregnant. Then Taylor pushed her off the balcony and the baby died. I was relieved to get out of the responsibility and the trouble this whole thing was bringing me. Taylor was really mad at me when she finally found out - of course I put off telling her for as long as I could, because I'm a Forrester (you know how it goes, something always comes up, or they tell you how great you are and then you just can't say anything). She forgave me, and we went to a cruise at St. Thomas and renewed our wedding wovs (you know, weddings are so much fun, so if I can't keep getting married all the time, it's at least fun to renew wovs, I have somehow become quite fond of those empty words, it keeps the women happy because they don't know that those words don't really mean anything most of the time. Anyway, at St. Thomas, our little twin girl Stephanie died... or maybe it was Phoebe, I can't remember, they both look the same... anyway, Taylor thought I wasn't grieving enough and left me alone. I didn't know where she had gone and after a while I started worrying about her, especially because I now had no one to worship me. Morgan was trying to make moves on me, and I'm glad because otherwise I would have been left with no women praising me. Brooke was married to Thorne and didn't care about me one bit (I knew that it was fake. Deep down she loves me, everyone does). Unfortunately I couldn't take advantage of Morgan's praise either because of other people's opinions. Really boring. So I missed Taylor and thus I was forced to use my brain enough to figure out from all the clues I had got where she was. It really was a difficult task, my brain almost exploded, I don't think I've used it this much for a long time. Before I knew it, I was driving into Morgan's living room just as she was about to shoot Taylor. The two of us were reunited but then Morgan wanted to shoot both of us. Luckily, with my natural charm and great looks and my apparent universal greatness I got Morgan talked into giving up the idea of shooting us. Then my daughter Steffy also emerged from somewhere and my life seemed quite happy again. BROOKE REVISITED As I have emphasized before, Brooke can't stay away from me. So eventually her marriage to Thorne came to an end, because she wanted me and only me. It didn't even take that long, and frankly I wasn't surprised at all. She went after me with all she had and I don't need to tell you that I liked that very much. We became close again and she tried to seduce me and everything was so much fun... Taylor didn't like it, of course, but how could I have stopped it? I can't help it that I am so irresistable. It caused some trouble for me and my marriage, but little trouble is always fun, life would be so boring without that. Then there came a time when she stopped trying again. I wish she hadn't, though. FORRESTER CREATIONS... Lately, my biggest source of worry has been Forrester Creations. Brooke went away for a while in January and named me the CEO in her absence. Then I decided that this was a good chance to undo everything Brooke has done for the company, she deserved it because she wasn't worshipping me anymore. I managed to get rid of her signature line and make a lot of people angry, especially her children and their spouses. It was cool to have such power. I almost managed to get the company all to myself but then Brooke came back and took control again. Since then things have been crazy. Brooke has named Amber, that piece of trailer trash, a new designer and I have resigned from Forrester Creations. I can't design anymore anyway, at least not much, because my hand has been injured. Kind of makes me wonder if trying to beat up Ricky boy and Deacon was actually worth it. I have also been betrayed by my own father, who didn't want to resign with me, but instead support Brooke's point of view. And this is the same man who just recently decided to keep me from having majority of this company when his time is up - he wanted me to get as much as everyone else, which is basically nothing. That bastard! I should get everything, I've worked so hard for that company. Anyway, Eric is not that nice anymore. I wish I had a father who was as nice as my mother's current lover Massimo. I used to hate him too but he has been so nice lately. He promised me a lot of power. Can't resist that. So recently I have gotten my own office with a wonderful portrait of myself on the wall (now I don't need a mirror to look at myself, isn't that great?) and I have also managed to buy Spectra Fashions. This is all part of my grand scheme to get back at Brooke because she doesn't worship me anymore... Maybe she will eventually come crawling back to me and try to seduce me again when she realizes I have the power to destroy her. I'm sorry I had such a long story to tell about myself. But how do you expect a man who loves himself as much as I love myself to fit in a couple of lines? Besides, I'm not the only who loves me, but everyone else loves me too. I'm the King of the World.   Ridge updated at 5/5/2002. He's got such a big ego that he has trouble fitting in the Forrester Creations or Taylor's nursery or anywhere else.
