Bridge is a tool not a coupling

I have wrestled with this question for years, what purpose does Bridge serve? I am hard-pressed to find Brooke fans who really want her with Ridge. Is there a more dysfunctional soap coupling in the history of soaps? Perhaps Laura marrying her rapist Luke. So I have concluded it’s just a writers tool. The show doesn’t care about the Bridge story. The writers over use the bridge break up and make up merry go round to introduce new characters or new actors to the story. When bridge breaks up typically there’s somebody around they want to give more air time to such as Shauna a few years ago and now the new Dr. Taylor and Deacon. So maybe I’ve been focused on the wrong frustration. Maybe the show knows that bridge is not a real relationship that it serves only as a tool to move things around. I just wish they would come up with some other ways of moving things around. Many of us have invested in Brooke’s growth and we are tired of the character being shows doormat.
