D-man,

So, you are saying that your wife was never a member of TLC, and you did not meet her on a tour or via correspondence with them?  Then how did he get her photo?  Is your wife some type of model?  Would it be too much to ask you in what issue of the brochures does your wife appear?  I do not wish to invade your privacy; but you brought this up, and I for one would like to follow through.  Assuming I understand what you are saying, this is blantantly misleading.  I would personally be more upset over this type of thing than some of the other issues that has been brought up recently. I do not wish to go around "bashing" any agencies.  But, at the same time, all of us need to compare notes and find out more about the agencies who are doing this type of thing.  The comment you mentioned about your conversation with Bruce suggesting that he purposefully put your wife's photo in his brochure without her permission is disturbing to me. He said he needed pictures like that to get other men interested?  WOW!  That is bad!  Please confirm to me whether I understand your story or not.  Thanks.

I will try to answer your questions. First, No I did not meet my wife through Bruces Agency.  I do know that about 3 or 4 years ago(I might be wrong about the time frame) Bruce hired her for the tour introductions or something like that.

Since my wife was a TV personality and former model, my wife really did not need an agency to meet men. Because of TLC, when she was living in Ecuador men would call her house in Cali at all hours and bother her parents. My wife called his office many times and asked to be taken off the website.

She is in one of the TLC internet issues. It does not serve any purpose saying which one she is located on. Bruce knows which ladies are not available when he is told a lady is not available.

I really don't want any problems with Bruce. Just by chance my wife and I were staying at the Inter Hotel during last years tour/party. I comfronted him politely about taking her off the website. He said he would take care of the matter.

Bruce if you are reading this, just take her off your website.

Demolitionguy,

It was very kind of you to answer my post.  I am sure that your wife is a lovely lady, and I certainly do not wish to butt into your private lives.  My only interest is to find just enough to get the "facts" straight.  Obviously, Bruce has posted today, in response to your post.  I hope that you can get it corrected.  However, please allow me to ask a follow up question.  What if he either refuses to remove her; or he tells you he will, but nothing gets done?  I mean, what recourse to you feel you have?  I can only imagine how many guys have very likely made requests to meet her; only to find out that she is conveniently unavailable?  At any rate, I wish you every happiness.  I just hope that someday, I will also be fortunate to find a true and loving wife.  Frankly, I do not enjoy the chase.  But, the alternative seems to be to continue to live alone.
NOT GOOD!

I was going to lay low on this .... but it just goes to show that a few more guys are starting to realize what a fake and fraudulent operation he has .........

Bruce why can't you be honest with some integrity .....

that is what this forum is all about , we are the
" CONSUMER REPORT " and if these agencies choose to operate the way they are it will only catch up with them sooner or later ...... and sooner is better ........

Jake,

At the very least, we need to be our own "CONSUMER REPORT".  What we think may not mean a hill of beans to the world at large; and it is rather obvious that we will not always agree on certain issues; but this goes way over the top!  I just think we need to get additional info about this particular incident.( read my post to D-Man.)
