Hope's daydreaming

But she put herself in this position. Time and time again. She had other options for her line (look for another designer, start a new line... her BIL is a billionnaire, she has all the funds she needs). Kind of hard to feel sorry for her or see her as a victim if she has some turnoil or mental breakdown. All she had to do is keep her distance with Thomas and put her family first, like she repeatedly vowed. It wasn't more complicated. I felt a bit sorry for her the first time she forgave Thomas and he disappointed her again... but not anymore. Not after this 4th, 5th, 6th time Liam and Brooke proved her wrong. It was only a few weeks ago that Thomas torpedooed her mom's marriage and abused her son yet again. Probably less than a few weeks in daytime. And now she's praising him and acting like they've always been best friends. This is on her. She just told Deacon that if anything weird happens, Thomas will be gone for good. Something weird happened today. She had 2 fantasies. Will she fire Thomas like she said she would? If she doesn't, then that's on her. You don't work with someone who is madly in love with you, let alone if you realize you also have some feelings for him. It's in her hands now. No more victim Hope.


Why should Thomas get fired for this? Since he's been back at FC, he's acted with respect and kindness toward Hope, and everyone else there. He hasn't pursued Hope in a romantic manner and showed restraint against Liam's insults and physical attacks. His designs have been well-received, appreciated, and complimented. Hope is catching feelings for Thomas, but that is not his fault. He shouldn't be fired for Hope's desires.

Respect? He just lied to her face. Told his psy that he still loves Hope but when she asked him yesterday, he lied. Why? Because the reason why she rehired him was based on a lie. She did because he told her he doesn't have feelings anymore. It's obviously another lie.
He just had more Thope flashbacks a few episodes ago.
He is still bad-mouthing Brooke even if he's the one who ruined her marriage
Still worrying Ridge might go back to Brooke.
Encouraged Douglas' wish to see his parent together.
Still keeping so many secrets from Hope, like his recent involment with Sheila. I don't see the respect here. Come clean about all his other crimes and I may buy that he regrets his mistakes.

And there was nothing respectful or kind in that scene today. As soon as Hope fell on him, he should have pulled away and stood up. Both Thomas and Hope were extremely disrespectfful and unkind.
