First, Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case) seemingly reconciled their relationship. Nick doesn\u2019t want to go back there with Phyllis again, even if they have sizzling chemistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, Phyllis has scared most of her ex-boyfriends away. Because they know what it\u2019s like to be with her. She\u2019s volatile and unpredictable, which can make for a bad romance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, Phyllis has lost Danny (Michael Damian) to Cricket (Lauralee Bell). The two are getting married soon, and Phyllis can\u2019t believe that the so-called father of her son doesn\u2019t want to be with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What she doesn\u2019t realize is that she\u2019s mostly the problem in her relationships. She\u2019s also the \u201cother woman\u201d who inserts herself in these romances. She needs to have her own leading lady moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-long-overdue\">Long Overdue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/soaphub.com\/young-restless\/commentary-yr\/phyllis-latest-crash-out-proves-she-hasnt-moved-on\/\">Yes, Phyllis crashed out during Cricket and Danny\u2019s party.&nbsp;<\/a>Arguably, she wasn\u2019t spiraling because of trauma. She was just being typical Phyllis. She loves pushing other people\u2019s buttons, and she loves to escape taking accountability for her failed relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phyllis couldn\u2019t stop mentioning the cruel things that Cricket said to her, even though she was the one who approached Cricket and Danny at first. She claimed that Cricket was the one who stole Danny from her, while she was an innocent woman who made good choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This proves that Phyllis hasn\u2019t learned from her relationships. She needs to find a man who\u2019s available in all ways. But this would require a little self-reflection, which she lacks. Her love life hasn\u2019t improved because she\u2019s been using the same narrative for years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phyllis needs to realize she doesn\u2019t need to chase a man to make him love her. She needs to see herself as the leading lady in her own life. That could lead her to a man who could love all of her perks, quirks, and flaws.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/soaphub.com\/young-restless\/commentary-yr\/why-phyllis-needs-new-love-interest\/\">Here\u2019s why Phyllis needs a new love interest on Y&amp;R.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the\u00a0Monday, October 20 episode of\u00a0The Young and the Restless, Phyllis had an awkward run-in with Danny and Cricket, who were throwing their joint bachelor\/bachelorette party.
