I have a 2 pillow meshes I want to merge together, so I cut them in such a way so that I can bridge them together but the Bridge Edge Loop is behaving weird on Blender 5.0. How can I connect both sides? Why is Bridge Edge Loop behaving like that? Maybe there is a better way to merge the pillows? Currently they overlap each other in the blend file.

Including another example to dispell a myth that you can't bridge edge loops with different vert count. you can. example with a circle of 97 vertices and another with 32 vertices:

after bridge edge loops:

So why doesn't it work with my pillow?

Looks like these vertices are masking the problem. I tried removing the vertices here where the bridge edge loop is connecting to:

Then it will show the real problem which is saying you have to select at least 2 edge loops:

So I'm guessing the problem is that the edge loops I'm selecting are not true edge loops?
