I cheered for Hope today

I was so happy when she brought up Liam's 13 years long inappropriate relationship with Steffy.
Hope: "You get to spend time with your ex-wife, with your track record, and I take no issue with it. And yet I can't work with my lead designer?"
Yaaaaas! tell him off! :dance2
Liam always expects Hope to be fine with him keeping around the woman he cheated on Hope with many times. And Liam even slept with said woman recently and could have fathered her child but he can't handle the same thing happening to him.
Hope has yet to do half of the things Liam put her through.
I'm so happy she called that hypocrite out. Now Bell just needs to go ahead and end Lope. They are and will always be tainted because of Steffy's involvement since those Aspen days.


She does not get to bring it up because she forgave him for it and told him it was in the past, In doing what she did today, she broke her word, She showed that she did not forgive him, she just lied about it. When you forgive someone, the deed is done, you do not get to ever throw it in their face again. It is forgiveness, not, I will be cool with this until I want to use it to beat you over the head with it because I am angry and thinking of cheating myself.


Just because she forgave it doesn't mean she forgot what Liam did and the little efforts he put into keeping his words to her. Hope saw him wavering again after Steffy had amnesia. He wanted to go back to his old games so bad. The fact that he's pressuring Hope now over nothing is what is pissing Hope off.
She's showed way more control and remorse over her feelings for Thomas than Liam ever did for falling in love and marrying the woman who tormented Hope.
He has no room to talk with his track record.

Steffy's amnesia only lasted 24h, and Liam was the first person who wanted to tell Steffy about Finn. He was adviced not to by Bridget, Steffy's doctor. The minute Bridget gave her green light, he did the right thing and told Steffy the truth. Liam hasn't interacted much with Steffy during the last 12 months. Nothing compared to the hours and hours and hours Thomas and Hope spend every day behind close doors, daydreaming about each other and praising each other.

Hope isn't showing control and remorse. Months of emotional affair, fantasies and lies isn't showing control. If she had remorse, she would be working from home or avoiding Thomas at work. If she had remorse, she would do the right thing, cut ties with Thomas (except for Douglas) and stop blaming her mother.

I'm not seeing control either. She allowed Thomas to kiss her multiple times and kept it secret when they thought they'd lost the baby. Liam still doesn't know Thomas proposed to her, kissed her and kissed her 2 other times later before they made the annulment official. In this case, the only reason she hasn't kissed Thomas (yet) is because HE is showing self control. She gave him several opportunities to kiss her and he hasn't cracked yet. I hate Thomas, but he gets a lot more credit than Hope from me, so far.
