He helps kill 300 people who were not a threat and were only help protect his people. The second and it might even be a bigger reason is the fact he thinks Clarke is dead heck they all do. He is up there with Echo and Raven who are both single, odds are he move on with one of them. Remember to them it looks like Clarke NightBlood was not strong enough to handle the Radiation. Bellamy from a story point of view I think should of die already. To be fair i do not really ship anyone i am looking at from a story point of view and truth is some grounder should of kill him in revenge for his part in killing 300 warriors in there sleep that were there to help him and the others at the Ark.

One thing is that the ratings have never really recovered since they kill Lexa since that episode, not one episode has matched or beat the ratings since Thirteen. I do not think the ratings have anything to do with the ships but overall the story. But Lexa was a popular Character, and how they handle her leaving the show hurt more than anything.

The Books are one Cannon the show is a different Cannon, a lot of what happened in the books cannot happen on the show for different reasons. Clarke father is still alive. That a big change from the books to the show. There are other changes but this to me a big one. I totally agree from a storytelling standpoint Bellamy should be with no one. He works best as friends with Clarke. Same goes for Raven just because they slept together once doesn't mean they should be together. As for echo just because they both saved each other once doesn't mean they should be together plus echo tried to kill him and his sister multiple times in season 4. If I was Bellamy I would have left her for dead or killed her to preserve oxygen I mean how could he ever trust her. If he does end up with one of them they better have some pretty convincing flashbacks otherwise it will feel forced.
