Thomas's Timetable is Wrong

I actually think Hope is putting Thomas first. Sure let them get engage and give him more false hope that they will be married. A broken engagement is just as devastating as a failed marriage. Also she is putting Douglas first, the moment she agrees to be married and "make them a real family" that kid would be devastated if they did not get married. Thomas has been gaslighted by his evil sister to believe things that are not true.

Sure Hope could give into his demands to become engaged, BUT she says she is not ready to get married and Thomas would pressure her to get married the next day.

She should have thought of all that the first time he proposed. Yeah Thomas knew what he was getting into when he continued on her terms after she turned down his proposal the first time but Hope also knew she had no intention of saying yes. Keeping the ring around her neck and dropping little tidbits like she is thinking about it and she doesn't take it lightly were just ways to make sure he doesn't go anywhere. She knew all along she didn't want to marry him. But she was more concerned with her own gratification rather than what another rejection would do to Thomas or Douglas. Hope has been extremely selfish since last July so I find it hard to believe that she's finally thinking of Thomas for a change. And yes she could lie and get engaged and then break it off down the line but as far as she's currently fallen, I think if she did that there would be no coming back for her. That would be unspeakably cruel, to both Thomas and Douglas. And even though it looks like the writers are hellbent on butchering her character I don't think they would dare go that far.
