Phillip continues to ask Belle is she has made any sort of decision about who she really wants to be with and Belle doesn't give him the answer he was looking for at this time. Belle basically wants to take things slow and she doesn't want any sort of commitment to him. Shawn sees her and is frustrated with her too. The article says that we are seeing "Belle's reaction to being ignored and not appreciated." She sees that Shawn is moving on with his life and she wants to do the same. Clair learns a shocking secret about her Mom....how will this affect Belle? Pick up SOD! |

sigh. I don't like fickle Belle. I actually kind of wish both Philip and Shawn would tell her off & we could see her in a "WTF" moment when she realizes they're not gonna play her games anymore. Then maybe let her focus on herself & her career for a while before she & Shawn get back together again. My Shelle feels won't let me feel for any kind of Phelle. |

I'm confused about being ignored and unappreciated. I know they mentioned that as the cause for the cheating in Maine. But now she has two guys that want to be with her. Shawn came across the country to work things out. Phillip took her on a trip to Vegas. I wish we saw what they are telling us. |

So true! The feeling ignored and unappreciated was MM's belief in regards to Belle. They have messed up this character so very much. I hope they'll put her back together again and soon. |

Can Chloe hurry up and come back so Shawn and Philip can BOTH go after her and leave Belle in their dust for her to GROW the fuck up and lose her bitchiness! |

I can't take Belle. Shawn deserves better. I wonder what secret Claire finds out? That her mom cheated? Or about the money? |

Maybe this is some sort of course correction here to Belle actually caring about Shawn and Claire? |

Belle is fickle,when she was married to Phillip she wanted Shawn,with Shawn she wanted Phillip,you cannot have both. |

There is such a cold bitchy edge to Belle though right now...it is not entertaining in the least to watch...they are screwing this character big time right now. |

It would be entertaining if they'd at least give it some sort of explanation, but sadly we haven't gotten one and I don't think we're going to get one. People don't go through their lives having the same personality all the time, so it's not necessarily the change in Belle that I dislike. It's the lack of any kind of background or build-up or explanation to her behavior that's bothering me. |

Exactly...I could understand if there was some back story or explanation or scenes of her struggling alone, which we only SORT of just got a small glimpse of this week. My issue is that Belle has been on screen for over 2 months now and the show has not given us and inside view of her internal struggles, no indepth digging into the back story in Maine. They also are keeping her away from John & Marlena, which is just WRONG. All we know is she felt neglected by Shawn and cheated on him, thus breaking up her marriage and family. There is also an unexplained distance between her and Claire and a lack of care on Belle's part it seems. Nothing has been explained and thus Belle feels 100% out of character right now...and as a huge fan of Belle and MM this is very frustrating because I wanted her back on this show so badly...but the writing is really hurting her character and is gaining her no new fans in the process. It also makes the Philip/Belle/Shawn thing totally unrootable as well. I am rooting for Belle to end up alone right now, she is undeserving of either man with the attitude and venom she is spewing. It reminds me of the shrewish bitch type writing that Jennifer was getting for the longest time...and I fucking hate it, |

She's horrible. She's got a Nellie Oleson vibe going on...in both looks and personality, except Nellie was extremely entertaining. Belle is just a bitter, unattractive shrew. Who'd want her?? :shrug: |

I never cared for Shawn and Belle, so this is fine by me. I know they'll end up back together though, but I wish they'd just have her be single for a while (a novel idea on a soap) then meet someone new. That will never happen of course. |

I'm just thankful Rafe is too caught up with Hope to notice it. |

I'm all for making Belle more interesting this time around, and giving her more color. But I have zero sense of what her character is supposed to be right now. Forget that fact that she's unrecognizable from her last run on the show. I can deal with that given such a long absence from the canvas. But what is motivating her behavior? This is an instance where I think that the cuts have been really detrimental to a character. It's just not making any sense. And even when things do air, it's inexplicable: Belle goes on that jaunt to Las Vegas with Phillip instead of spending time with Claire? Really? I hope her character gets set straight, and soon. |

I liked Belle's new edge at first, now I'm just tired out of it. I want sweet Belle back. |

I think they'd need to recast for a sweet Belle. I don't think they're totally on the wrong track here. Just like a lot of other pieces, it's not gelling. |
