from daytime royalty daytimeroyaltyonline.com/topic/8537941/1/SOW: Brady is Torn Between Melanie and Nicole!; July 12, 2011 Issue Brady takes Nicole out for drinks, then dumps her for Melanie! With time running out, Bo is forced to set Nicole free because she hasn't broken any laws. Before she takes flight, Bo issues an order: Nicole is forbidden to speak to anyone about her suspicion that EJ and Stefano kidnapped and brainwashed Rafe. That night, Brady accompanies Nicole to the Cheatin' Heart for drinks. "Despite all of the terrible things that Nicole has done to Brady, he still has strong feelings for her," points out Eric Martsolf (Brady). The former lovers can't help but bicker, and Brady promptly abandons Nic at the bar. "Brady would like to believe that he's finished with Nicole," smiles Martsolf, "but no matter how hard the poor guy fights it, he continues to make the same mistakes over and over." Overwhelmed by self-pity, Nicole drinks herself into a stupor, then staggers down the street and spots Rafe. Nic believes he is the man who murdered her mom, so she follows him to an isolated warehouse, hides in a dark corner and watches him enter a room. A moment later, Rafe exits and Nic slips into the room, where she finds herself face to face with imposter Rafe! The double convinces Nicole that he's the real Rafe and she lets him go. As he bolts out the door, a woozy Nicole passes out. Across town, Brady has a realization about Melanie and drops by her place to express his real feelings. "Brady and Melanie have a great friendship," offers Martsolf. "But there has been an underlying possibility that there could be something more going on between them." An enthusiastic Brady confides to Melanie that he's had an epiphany about them, but just as he's about to continue, a freaked-out Nicole phones and insists she needs to see him. Brady cuts short his heart-to-heart with Melanie and heads off to see Nicole. She babbles incoherently about seeing two Rafes and cries that she let one of them go. Brady suspects it's the booze talking and escorts her back to her hotel room. Nicole gets the wrong idea about Brady's intentions and makes a play for him. "Brady has made a choice," voices Martsolf. "What he and Nicole once shared is history." Brady returns to Melanie's place and is stunned to find her alone with Dario.

I'm glad that Dario is there. Good grief I never thought I'd say that! Brady and Melanie should be friends and that's it. Brady go back to Nicole's hotel room.

With Francisco leaving,I'm not surprised they're trying the Brady angle again.They IMO,made a huge mistake breaking up Mel and Philip,and now they seem desperate to pair her off again.Makes me nervous in case the rumor about Mark Hapka returning is true,now there's a pairing I REALLY don't want to see!

I'd rather see Nathan and Melanie than Brady and Melanie. I think it's more than a little creepy that Brady keeps going after his uncle's exes. Is he hanging around all the time thinking "What would Uncle Philip do?" If Philip was too old for Melanie, Brady is definitely too old.

Oh, I'm torn about this. I like Melanie and Brady's chemistry, but I do feel it is better as a friendship. But it's a way better romantic chemistry than Melanie and Dario. But if they don't pair her with Brady and Dario leaves, who else is left for her...Quinn? Because it sure isn't going to be Sonny. Melanie does make a good Kiriakis wife and I don't want to see her outside of Victor's realm because I love their interactions. But Melanie and Philip were perfect for each other and it's a crock they rewrote it as though Philip didn't make her laugh or wasn't right for her. See, I keep going back and forth on this. UGH!

^^^^I agree 100%!!!
I absolutely love the chemistry between Mel & Brady and I really think that I could have liked them as a couple if they hadn't started out more as the brother/sister relationship. since we dont' see true friendships on teh show, I definately don't want to lose that between these two. I loved Melanie with Phillip. I definately want her to continue interacting with Victor as well.

Is he hanging around all the time thinking "What would Uncle Philip do?" If Philip was too old for Melanie, Brady is definitely too old. I have been thinking the same thing. Even Nicole was married to Lucas, Philip's brother. Is Arianna the only one Brady was with who had no connection to Philip?

Allow me a little vent here...
Nicole is definitely NOT second choice to Mel.
I don't like Mel. She's a brat who needs to grow theheck up. She was well paired with Phil (though I liked Phil and Chloe better) but she's not paired well with either Dario or Brady. I don't mind them bringing someone else in for her (like another of Justin/Adrienne's sons aside from Sonny) but she is not a good pair for Dario or Brady.
That said...
If Brady can't choose between Nicole or Mel, than he doesn't deserve either. He and Nicole are well suited, and they have an on/off complicated relationship. But, if she can't see the woman that Nicole is from the little girl Mel is, than he's got bigger issues, and needs to grow up without either.
I'm also tired of Nicole being second fiddle to Sami, Mel, and everyone else in Salem.

I agree that Nicole shouldn't be second choice to these other gals.

Then she and Abigail can mix it up and fight over their parents and over their boyfriend. But Nicole belongs with Brady. They are much better suited for each other.

I would absolutely LOATHE a Chad/Melanie pairing. I'd much rather see him stay with Abigail or be paired with Will for that matter. Melanie does not need yet another love interest. She has already had five and Chad would make six: Nick, Nathan, Philip, Dario, Brady in less than 3 years. Keep in mind that 4 of those are no longer there (one quit and the rest were fired). They simply need to get rid of Melanie and focus on someone else. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

I would have an easier time believing that many guys were after Chloe or Nicole than Melanie! That's another reason to keep her and Brady apart. We don't want to lose him too.
