Honestly if Belle wants to go sleeping around that's her business. I don't think she's a slut. What makes me think less of her is her attitude towards her daughter. It's affecting their relationship negatively and she is not providing a very good example for a young woman whose life she has an influence over.
THIS! Putting your sexual needs/desires above your daughter's emotional needs, is pretty shitty parenting, IMO.

Belle & Shawn aren't together. Belle can sleep with whoever, whenever, and I won't judge her, but I will judge her for hurting/neglecting Claire. Cheating on Shawn AGAIN was shitty (and slutty), and it hurt her daughter too.
I also don't mind her sleeping with whoever whenever, but her ideal of caring for her daughter and supporting her is less about her daughter and more about her...that's my problem with her.

I'm ok with her and Philip.

I have no problem with Belle sleeping with Phillip since he is unattached & she is getting divorced.
I do think Belle needs to make her daughter a priority over her love/sex life.

She didn't sleep with Chad. The only other guy was Philip. That's sleeping around? Her husband served her divorce papers, and she had consensual sex with someone she has known for a long time and cares about. I had no idea doing that meant you were easy.
Well, Shawn filed for divorce because Belle cheated on him AGAIN. Abby interrupted when she was about to sleep with Chad. Now she is having sex with Philip; all while she walks around moping and saying she doesn't know who or what she wants.


I thought when Belle came back she told John and Marlena that her marriage was over? I'm not sure what you mean by "again"?

As for having sex with Phil while moping and being confused, that still doesn't translate to being easy or sleeping around to me. It sounds human :shrug:

The again is because she cheated on him before with Philip (2007ish). Again is referring to the man in Maine more recently.

I was gonna say... And it seems pretty mutual with Phillip - in fact, he started out pursuing her, so... And Chad was different and plot driven, but still doesn't make her anything than a single woman (which she pretty much was, Shawn had filed for divorce).

Belle finally does something other than ditz around, cry and weep about why Shawn does this or that, so I'm not complaining. I mean, I wish she'd talk to her mom more (and her pops, please), since it brought out information about how she was really feeling (lonely, upset, angry, disappointed...). but anything is better than the teenage doof we had for so long.
I'm curious about one thing!? Why do you keep referring to Belle as a teenager? She hasn't been one since 2003 or so! And she was a pretty mature teen BTW. If anything Samis been the one acting like a spoiled 14 year old for most of her run. Belle has never acted any differently than any other woman in Salem when they're in love.

Yes she's separated and she can sleep with whomever she likes even if I don't like it. But the problem is that she acts like she's easy!! Plus she she's a cold bitch to her own daughter, cancels on a mother/daughter trip to Chicago to go have sex with her sleazy ex. And she's guilting her husband for an affair she had!! She's playing games and sleeping with her monkey boy instead of making it clear and saying "No Shawn It's over" instead she's pulling an Elena Gilbert and saying "I don't know what I want" there's nothing interesting or fun about Belle right now but if you think so I guess it's your choice lol

This is not the daughter of my OTP!! I always expected Better from Isabella Black!
I guess I don't equate having casual sex with "acting easy". When men do it they call it "sowing the wild oats" or just having fun. I don't mean to go on about this but it really bothers me. She's getting a divorce, and maybe she just wants to have some fun now. Do I think she's acting responsible about her daughter, no, but that has nothing to do with her sex life. It would be different if she was having sex with strangers in the same house where her daughter is living.

Ok, well then that is just something assumed, it's not what we heard him say on screen. I mean Shawn and Belle stayed married since that time so it must not have been an issue for him. and I still don't think that makes her easy. The fact is still that she's unattached at the moment and is free to have sex with someone other than Shawn.

It's not assumed. Belle herself told her parents she cheated on Shawn in Maine. This was the second time she cheated on him. Regardless of whether he forgives her or not, she did cheat.

That's not what I meant. I know about her cheating history. The poster said Shawn divorced her because she cheated again, but we haven't heard Shawn say that that was the specific reason he's divorcing her now. At least I never saw a scene where they had Shawn give that as a reason. It certainly could be the reason (it would make sense) but I didn't hear him say that on screen. That's all I meant.

Belle told her parents that her cheating was why her marriage was ending. This happened on screen.

Shawn told Belle he forgave her once for cheating on him, and that he would be an idiot if he did that again. This was a cut scene seen in the DoD preview.

I wonder if that scene was cut because they changed tack when they realised they could get Brandon Beemer to come onboard and continue as Shawn D.

I really don't want to get into this again. My views were made clear on previous posts. All I have to say is that John and Marlena's daughter should be better than this!! She should be a strong leading lady not someone the fans are hating and wished was shipped back to Maine.

Exactly. Belle has said so herself. I was going to bring up the cut Jason Cook scene too.

What else would be the reason for him filing? They are still playing that angle, but Shawn is taking some blame because he was busy with school/work.

John and Marlena don't necessarily have to have a saint for a daughter, though.

I never said they did!! I said I expected more!! Jennifer, Hope, Kayla, Marlena were all heroines of the 80s/90s and I don't recall any of them acting like Belle is acting now. I don't remember anyone being so angry at them and wishing them off the show. Part of my problem is with MM's acting choices, she exudes too much coldness that the character of Belle never had under Kirsten Storms. Who was a great Belle BTW, not perfect!! But not as I likable. John and Marlena's daughter should be likable!!!!

They're my OTP I instinctively expect their kids to be better than the other couples kids LMAO!!! :blulaugh: :flipoff: ;)

I don't remember MM's Belle being that cold before she left, though, so I'm not sure it's really her acting choices but the writing??

I could be wrong. I admit that I've never cared much for Belle so I kind of forgot about her until now, lol

nice yard.
Why is he reading scripts?
I guess that means he's hopeful the show will be renewed?
Because he's the Co-Executive Producer and it's part of his job?

I'm embarrassed to say that I have no idea what an executive producer does.
So I just looked it up.
http://www.producersguild.org/?page=faq
I can see now why he'd be reading scripts.
I read an interview with Josh Griffith (not re: Days) where he described the writing process.
There's an excerpt from the interview:

"The headwriters work out the long story (usually arcs of 3 or 6 months) and then break that into weakly thrusts. They work with the outline writers to turn the thrust into 5 daily show structures, which are then met on and noted by the producers and the network. Usually the executive producer is part of the long story creation. The daily structures, or outlines, are then sent to scriptwriters who provide the dialogue."
