Even if we disagree that Rumple abused Belle (I don't get how you can say that but ok) I find the fact she chose him over the possibility of ever seeing her family and friends again... problematic. Some women needs friends to be happy some don’t, only because Belle’s happy ending was with her husband and son does not mean all women needs that. If you find yourself giving up your friends for a relationship, thats bad. Your signifcant other should be your best friend, not your only friend For you perhaps, but for Belle it was the right decision. She lived happy with the man she loved.
