Thomas is a fool

Thomas told Hope “you waited until now when I am leaving to tell me you love me”. Well he asked Hope to marry you before she told him she loved him
Sounds to me like Thomas jumped the rope first. What did he expect? She hadn’t told him she loved him but she has told him she wasn’t ready and he proposed anyway. What is his problem? Now he has to pack up with Douglas and leave? Go, you sound like a child who didn’t get his way. Take your sister with you

Notice that Hope wanted to call Thomas when Douglas arrived because she believed that they should have that difficult conversation together, but Thomas already had a conversation with Douglas prior to that behind Hope's back. Douglas was literally repeating Thomas's words... " You don't love dad enough to marry him ".
He gave Douglas his own version of events and complained about the proposal and Hope wasn't able to say anything. Then Thomas asked Douglas if he spoke to Hope and not mom. This was very telling. Thomas might not say it, but he wanted to hurt Hope in some way. Not as much as Steffy, but still.
Hope shouldn't put blame on Steffy. Of course she should blame her for badmouthing her and her mom, but not for Thomas's actions. He is a big boy and he was free to make a decision.

That is why I don't think Thomas has really changed. He is now using Douglas because he did not get his way. I think the whole Hope was not his mother, Caroline was, and she is dead was Thomas' words coming through Douglas also. I think Douglas saw how much he hurt Hope, so he ran back to her and called her mom and told her he loved her. I guess Douglas will be in boarding school next and only make appearances or be mentioned at holidays or special occasions.
