Penn Badgley, star of Gossip Girl and the upcoming film The Stepfather, opens up to about relationship advice and romance in the October 2009 issue of Women’s Health magazine. Here are the highlights:

The best piece of relationship advice he’s received: “Passion is number one and trust is number two. You need to start with a passionate connection, and if you can maintain it and cultivate it, that’s most important. Then trust can develop. I have both now, and it’s been an incredible thing.”

The most romantic meal he’s cooked for a woman: “Earlier this year I went to Thailand and took some cooking classes. I learned how to make classic Thai dishes, which are exotic, spicy and quick and easy to make—and a rare thing to cook for a woman. I made a yellow curry with pineapple. I think pineapple is very sexy. It reminds me of bikinis and the beach.”

The Gossip Girl character he’s most like in real life: “Nate is too normal, and Chuck is too bad. I understand Dan, even though he’s too nice sometimes. He’s just so earnest that he can’t help but mess up. But in our third season, he’s going to have more fun acting out of character.”

Catch this interview in the October 2009 issue of Woman’s Health magazine, the cover features Christina Applegate on the cover.
