Dissecting Ted Bundy's Three Defining Relationships

When it comes to Ted Bundy, you can ask that horrifying question when it comes to three women. 

Netflix's new docuseries Conversations With a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes provides viewers with intimate and chilling conversations between the infamous serial killer and journalists Stephen Michaud and Hugh Aynesworth, who visited Ted in jail and recorded more than 150 hours of their taped interviews. 

During their conversations, Ted, who still maintained his innocence at the time the interviews were recorded in 1989, often reflected on his past relationships and history with women.

"It wasn't that I disliked women or were afraid of them," Ted said.
"It was just that I didn't seem to have an inkling as to what to do about them. I honestly can't say why."

And yet, just hours before his scheduled execution in 1989 at the age of 42, Ted finally confessed to his crimes, claiming responsibility for 30 homicides that he committed between 1974-1978 in seven states. (And that number could possibly be higher.)

In one of his conversations with Michaud and Aynesworth, Ted boasted about his ability to connect with women, despite claiming earlier he had trouble interacting with them.


"I've always preferred women to men, I probably have sixty percent women friends and close to 40 percent men friends," he claimed. "It's always been divided that way. I enjoy women."
