Erik was 22 on this show and told his parents he was gay a year later, so he was gay when this video was made, but it does not mean he has to be such an A-hole to women.
Jerry is right. Obviously he would be hard to please. Maybe he should have planned the date then maybe he would have been happier. However good to find out early what a true jersey he is.
A lot of gay men are actually pretty misogynistic in the way they view and treat women…probably even moreso when they’re in the closet or haven’t figured it out yet. None of those women were going to please him. He might just also be a jerk in general.
Guy was definitely rude. A real person would've made the best of any situation that came up. It's not her fault for anything that happened. She seemed really nice.
Erik came out as gay a few years ago. I honestly felt that he was not into this attractive woman in anyway. Now I know why. She seemed very cool and is a beautiful woman.
just because he is gay does not give him the right to be mean to this poor girl. I have a close friend who is gay and is the nicest person I have ever met. she had a beard cover up in her past but was never disrespectful to anyone. this guy just comes off as really angry and mean spirited
I suspected he might be gay, but I don't think he ever came out on the Video and said he was Gay. If was gay, why would he want to go on a date with a Girl on Love Connection. Just for the publicity? I used to Watch Love Connection whe I was young in the 1980's I think and I don't think they ever had any Gay Dates on the Show. Blind Date which was like Love Conneciton except they actually followed the Daters around and Video taped them, did have Gay Dates , if my memory serves me right. He was nasty to the girl, but I don't ever remember him ever saying on the Video that he was GAy or even Bi.
This was so cringy to watch🙈 seriously this guy did none of the planning, but all the complaining!! She handled everything pretty well...staying sweet & classy. Glad she doesn't have to see him again ✌🏾
you can really tell a lot about these people. erik is being a real jerk. and heather is being pretty nice, back to him. anyone with a bit of class does not try to make the other person look badly ON NATIONAL TELEVISION.
The girl was stunningly beautiful, fun, easygoing and had a cute voice. Jesus Erik, you dropped the ball on that one! I woulda made it a night to remember...a sweet night of Fie-yahhh...80's style!!
Unfortunately, there are a lot of gay men who act like this towards women. Just because you’re not sexually attracted to a gender, doesn’t give you the right to be so mean, devalue, gaslight, condescend. You can tell his behavior towards her from the beginning was hostile and not thinking much of her. She didn’t deserve that abusive date…I wonder how many other women he probably brought to tears before he decided to come out of the closet.
Yeah, don’t punish her because you’re gay and lying about it on national television. You have a serious character problem in addition to being in the closet. Coward ! Producer.. hah!
Chuck: If you’d like to go out with Elana, we’ll pay for it. Erik: No thanks. I’ll just give up and be gay now. Chuck: Wow. You made that decision faster than 2 and 2.
What gave it away? When he wasn't interested in her, I thought he might be one of those guys that is used to supermodels (although she's close), but I had no idea about him being gay.
@juliebarnett9812 I thought you were joking but time stamp 8:12 @stardustmelody2709 As it turns out, Erik works for the Dodgers and got married to his husband at Dodger Stadium. I’m not sure if that means anything though.
Never go on a date without plans in place - you don't have to follow those plans, but the last thing your date wants to hear is "I don't know - what do you wanna do?"
@@TL.... I don't know. My brother is gay and he fought it. He dated several women and his relationships weren't good ones. This is just an opinion I have from my experience growing up with a gay older brother. They know they are different and don't want to be different. Maybe they can overcome this "thing" they see as being a problem. He was an ANGRY person. Not from us (his family) we didn't do anything to him. Why do you think that trans and gay people make SO MUCH noise when they are a minuscule part of the population? People are pretty accepting now, yet they are still making noise. Why? They think one more law might do it. Teaching in schools might do it. But it won't. THEY KNOW. They feel it. Nothing we do will ever be enough.
@@TheBandit7613 i dont think people are more accepting now than in the past... (trans and gays) just that nowadays you can get huge backlash for saying anything bad about them case in point = ruclips.net/video/uRdrJpEzADM/видео.html
If you can't come out of the closet it doesn't mean that you need to take your frustration out on other people that want to meet a genuine love connection. It's best if you just wait until your ready to come out so you can be happy!
oh yeah same here! same here.. I'd give just about anything to go back, an hopefully find this poor lovely woman, Heather an put a ring on her finger! an punch that idiot in the face!! lol just kidding.. maybe
I used to watch this show I feel like back in the mid 80's. I always thought Chuck was pretty cool and funny. I just got one of these videos in my recommended videos list and I've been binge watching watching them. I watch a lot of youtube vids and I hope I don't have a new addiction. But, I really liked and miss the 80's I wa born in 73 and the 80's were a very great time period for me. I don't love some of the styles and what was up with the 80's metal bands wardrobe and hair but the music was great, the movies were great, just a great time to be a kid.
He did not age well and ends up he prefers men anyway- maybe thats why he was such an ass to this poor girl. He looks like he could be a Mendenez brother
He's a famous front-office guy with the L.A. Dodgers, since 2009. Since that show he officially, publicly, "came out," in about 2015 - fast-forward 20-25 years after appearing on, "Love Connection." He probably had difficulty with his "Love Connection" date because of his personal struggles with his own identity. That was really too bad, because she was, "Hot," and seemed really sweet on the show. Maybe this info will be enough of a clue for you about Erik Braverman.

Wow, all three are how I remember thinking of cute 80s girls when I was a kid. The dude was kind of an arrogant, stuck up dirtbag who couldn't have seemed any less interested.
The man is supposed to be the leader, but on this date it looks like his date was the one doing the leading (choosing where to go, navigating, etc.) and he was complaining. The girl seemed like she might be conceited at first, but she turned out to be really cool and sweet.

In his role as Senior Vice President, Marketing, Communications and Broadcasting, Braverman manages the Dodgers’ local and national broadcast relationships and directs the club’s marketing and communications initiatives, helping drive ticket sales and place the club in a position to lead the Majors in attendance each of the last seven years. He also oversees the club’s internal productions, creative efforts and the Dodgers’ social media, which has set the standard for fan engagement and grown to become one of the most followed teams in baseball across all platforms.

He ruined the Dodgers with his BS. Ever hear of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence? He was behind that hate group getting recognition. The group are disgusting and represent pure hate and evil.
Obviously the guy was a women hater simply because he wanted to be one of them. This girl was too much of a competition for him. He treated her like trash because of his jealousy. He wanted to give her shade and humiliate her as much as he could... Obviously if you have eyes, you can see he's totally gay!
@@dearmakeupdiary But she was more annoying and I have proof. I was bisexual before seeing the two but since she turned me off to women so much that I only like men. You on the other hand liked men before seeing them and still like men now. So I just proved you wrong.
Wow, it’s his date and he doesn’t make plans. Then complains when she does. He doesn’t even try to come up with anything sour of moment when things weren’t working out. He’s pretty arrogant.
She's sweet, nice & gorgeous. A bit lost? No problem. Mexican food? I love Mexican food. No band? Let's dance anyway. We have the place to ourselves. More champagne please. Back to your place? That sounds nice. Look at your portfolio? I'd love to, great pictures. Some champagne and chocolates? Sounds wonderful. How about we put on some music and get that dance? Yes. You have beautiful eyes. You as well. Have you thought about being an actress? Sometimes. You should. I can't get over your eyes. Aww, you're sweet. I could look into them forever. More champagne? Yes. Let's go out on the balcony with our drinks. It's a beautiful night. That calm warm breeze feels so nice. Like a dream. Smells like flowers out here. That's my perfume. Oh, well it smells lovely. You're lovely. You are too. They kiss. (That was fun to write)
And fun to read! Exactly! You get it! Every thing he complained about was an opportunity! She was a good date waiting to happen. I looked up the guy and he is gay, for real. Now the whole thing makes perfect sense.
I always watched “Love Connection” on Game Show Network and popular places that Chuck would mention include shopping malls, churches and amusement parks.
Erik really didn't want this girl. She was really pretty and seemed really nice, and Erik made no attempt to have a good time. She tried and he didn't appreciate the effort. I would have treated her much better than that.
I don't wish him on anyone. But I would have given him to the first on because she's a psychiatrist and could spend the date time figuring out what's wrong with him.

I would have gone out with Elana and let her know over the phone that Erik is a vegetarian.
I'd definitely date her. Would treat her right
yeah, well.. you're straight, and he's not.
We know what happened to him but what about her?
@@SouthernSkeptic she actually travels around giving Christian talks to groups of women. She's still pretty.
Erik wanted to get it on with chuck instead of heather
Pretty boys love all the attention and she most likely was getting all the guys staring at her. Secretly he wanted that attention she was getting
I came to the comments for the gay jokes lol
She's a stunning looking woman and sweet. The guy was a bit rough to her. Not classy at all.
I think he preferred to date guys, he just didn't know it at the time...
DearMakeUpDiary The best comment. 👍
DearMakeUpDiary - When you listen to the girl on the show, you can see why.
@@chamboyette853they were both quite annoying to each other
@@dearmakeupdiary But she was more annoying and I have proof. I was bisexual before seeing the two but since she turned me off to women so much that I only like men. You on the other hand liked men before seeing them and still like men now. So I just proved you wrong.
This lady is in love with herself.. possibly delusional - I am glad he called her out. Delightful to watch -
Wow, it’s his date and he doesn’t make plans. Then complains when she does. He doesn’t even try to come up with anything sour of moment when things weren’t working out. He’s pretty arrogant.
Does he even remember this appearance?
What A Jerk...Felt So Bad For Her..
#1 was cute as hell. Too band she's 44 in 2012.
Too band?
0:26 I Crack up at the black man's face LOL
Erik looks like Eric Menendez' brother Lyle, she looks likes Allysa Milano
Yeah he is a jerk! Why have someone like him on there. This was a waste of time.
Is this supposed to be Erik Braverman who’s part of the LA Dodgers? Didn’t he marry is long time boyfriend Jonathan Cottrell?
yep same guy lol
She's sweet, nice & gorgeous. A bit lost? No problem. Mexican food? I love Mexican food. No band? Let's dance anyway. We have the place to ourselves. More champagne please. Back to your place? That sounds nice. Look at your portfolio? I'd love to, great pictures. Some champagne and chocolates? Sounds wonderful. How about we put on some music and get that dance? Yes. You have beautiful eyes. You as well. Have you thought about being an actress? Sometimes. You should. I can't get over your eyes. Aww, you're sweet. I could look into them forever. More champagne? Yes. Let's go out on the balcony with our drinks. It's a beautiful night. That calm warm breeze feels so nice. Like a dream. Smells like flowers out here. That's my perfume. Oh, well it smells lovely. You're lovely. You are too. They kiss. (That was fun to write)
And fun to read!
Exactly! You get it!
Every thing he complained about was an opportunity! She was a good date waiting to happen.
I looked up the guy and he is gay, for real. Now the whole thing makes perfect sense.
Gosh Nich......"sounds" like YOU should've been the one "dating" the Dude after all....
Haha. 99% of men would have been thrilled to be out with her.
@@Slamit88 🤣
That intro music is banging.
Blew it Eric. She sounds fun n cool.
"Women are yucky."...erik
So when did he decide he was ‘openly gay’? Per the MLB website, he’s always been openly gay.
I always watched “Love Connection” on Game Show Network and popular places that Chuck would mention include shopping malls, churches and amusement parks.
Narcissistic j off. She dodged a major bullet. I feel for whatever he ended up with.
100% guarantee that she wasn't into him, he got his feelings hurt so insulted everything she did n everything about her. fragile ego
Woolery's hair is beautiful.
Erik Braverman, who made sports headlines when he came out in 2015
And in an interview said he knew he was gay from a very young age. LOL
Thank you! I couldn’t understand all the comments about him being gay. I’m like, am I missing something? Yep I am. Lol.
Eric is only adventurous in a sexual way!
And apparently was trying to hide his true preferences, may have just wanted to meet CHUCK!😆🤣😂
Erik really didn't want this girl. She was really pretty and seemed really nice, and Erik made no attempt to have a good time. She tried and he didn't appreciate the effort. I would have treated her much better than that.
Because he came out as GAY! She never had a chance!
Well, he is gay…
Erik was a closet PUFF at this time, and probably had a crush on CHUCK !!!
He blamed everything on her. Ok the night was slow so no jazz band. That's not her fault. Don't want to dance with his date. That guy is a dud.
How do you not know he’s gay. He ignores her and stares at Chuck the whole time.
shes pretty. in a slight megan fox in the 80s way or something
What a beautiful woman inside and out.
She's too young for me
I don't wish him on anyone. But I would have given him to the first on because she's a psychiatrist and could spend the date time figuring out what's wrong with him.
Eric is or was such a cocky little guy...I wonder how he turned out.. Hopefully more mature as he aged.
Look him up. He's part of the Dodgers front office.
I for 1 wouldn't care if there were a lot of people ir me and my date are the only ones; if a slow song starts playing I'm going to be dancing!
He wasn't passing very well... you are telling me no one knew he was gay?
Anyone know the artist/ jazz intro (0:14)?
Darude Sandstorm
erik should wear high heels.
I'm going to bet Erik Braverman is still single to this day. What a jerk. Any girl could do better than him.
Was he one of the members of Menudo?
