Of course. He is all words with Chloe and action with Mac. I have no idea what I'm supposed to get from his scenes with Chloe. Its like he just wants Chloe as a backup 'cause he doesn't want to be alone. That's why he won't take the first steps togetting a divorce or seperation. It sucks. :/ And I don't think Billy Miller is playing this stuff right. In interviews he indicates that Billy is torn but onscreen, he plays nothing like that. It's VERY clear who he wants and he is not torn.

I keep hoping the point of all of this is that Billy is living in the past and that eventually he'll realize that whatever he had with Mac is in the past and he wants a life with Chloe and Deliah but he'd have to do so much groveling at this point. :/ He just treats Chloe with such disrespect. It's like nothing about hurting her even remotely occurs to him. :/

^i agree... i never get onscreen that he is supposed to be torn. i really don't know what the point of this is although i hope it's what you say. at this point though i'm getting closer and closer to jumping ship from Y&R. i have no faith in this writer at all.... she seems to love the past ie recycled s/l and mooning over your first love like Billy, Nick, and crazy Mary Jane aka Patti are all doing now. maybe she doesn't believe in moving in despite being married and having children with other people.my only hope is that she either gets a clue and does what you think she's going to or they get a new head writer who actually knows how to write. ugh, sorry for the rant but all the s/l's are so frustrating to me.

i think i'll stop now....

^ Yeah, obviously I hope I'm right too. LOL

Have you read any of Billy Miller's comments in the soap mags about this storyline? He seems to indicate that Billy is torn and that he has a thing for Chloe but is wrapped up in the past with Mac. The Mac stuff is the ONLY thing I see onscreen. I don't think he has a thing for Chloe or that he is torn. Exactly where is he torn? He has a wife and a baby but he chooses to stalk Mac, to kiss Mac, to almost have sex with her numerous times over Chloe/Deliah. Nope, not torn. He seems to be attracted to Chloe but that's only when the better option(to him) is unavailable. And how nice that Billy is finally faithful to someone, except you know the person he SHOULD be faithful to. I just need Chloe to tell him get lost. Then she can move on while Billy figures out that Mac is just the past and then he has some serious work to do. Though if that's the direction they're going in, they better find a hot guy for Chloe.

maybe it'll be Phillip IV, Nina's son. I heard the actor coming in did screen tests with her, AF (Amber), and CK (Lily).

i told my mom what you said about Billy supposedly being torn and she doesn't see it onscreen either.

Yeah, he tested with BM too; I saw the casting sides with him and Chloe and they were very flirty, so that gives me some hope 'cause seriously. :/

I'm glad your mom didn't see anything either; I hate when actors talk about storylines that clearly aren't happening onscreen. There's nothing in the writing that indicates Billy is torn and there is nothing in BM's acting that indicates he is torn either. It'd be one thing if Billy showed some remorse when he's with Mac. If he acted like "okay, this could hurt Chloe.." or something but he doesn't. He acts like Chloe/Deliah don't exist. He may be attracted to her but only on his terms and when there's nothing else available, so that isn't a thing either. :/

Sometimes I wish I didn't like them.... there's so much potential with this pairing and they have great chemistry. Just ugh. :/

^ yeah they're definitely a couple that is easier to ship because of how their story started and their natural chemistry but hard to ship because their story is being trashed now and their potential is being wasted. i juss don't get the writing on Y&R theses days.

It's been awhile since this thread has moved, I thought it was time for it to move again
