Show today....question

The show left me puzzled too. Hope told Brooke that she loved Liam, wanted to stay married to him and has no idea (!!) why she kissed a man she should be disgusted with.
So I have to ask: What is the matter with Hope? If my daughter told me a thing like that I would be very worried ...
More and more I think whatever this is going to be, it's not just a love story...or, if this is the way they think a love story should be written, I have to tell them that they are very wrong.

I know....it is strange. I was thinking Hope just THOUGHT she was suppose to believe she wanted Liam, but today, she acted like she really wanted Liam and not Tom. And Brooke asked her what she wanted in a very gentle and kind way too. Brooke was asking her sincerely if she wanted to be with Tom now? So it surprised me too when Hope immediately said no, that it was Liam and their family she loves and wants. Then the facial expressions from Hope are strange. She is sad, crying, but like she is resigned that Liam won't be back, and almost like she is thinking ahead to running to Tom, but not wanting to be that person. She was pretty calm telling RJ and her mom that her marriage is over. I almost thought she was going to say...."I guess I am like YOU mother"....when she said "I guess I am the kind of person that wants to cross that line"...she even said to Brooke...."you called it" and I have to wonder, if she feels this way, then why is she kissing Tom again this week? Even if she finds out about Liam kissing Steffy, or Liam tells her they are through, why does she do something she thinks is so wrong?

I still think Hope is already pregnant and does not know it yet. That is going to be the thing that mucks everything up. Liam will feel they have to reunite, and she will already be with Tom, and have to stop their relationship to do the right thing. JMO

Also, Hope said she is ashamed and embarrassed of kissing a man that should disgust her. She really seems to not know why she is doing any of this, and seems sorry, but then how does she explain the end of the week and kissing Tom again, just because Liam tells her he wants a divorce? Is she afraid of being alone? This just does not feel like a THope SL at all to me.

Hope has said she wanted Liam right from the beginning of this story. That was the truth. She wasn't lying to Liam about the feelings for Thomas, either. She was just trying to make them go away. There is something going on with Hope. Some kind of identity crisis or mental break or something, IMO. I thought that right from the beginning. Those weren't normal fantasies she was having. They were all about lust. Forbidden lust. And then we had all the "She's not like Brooke" comments. They were put in there for a reason.

I think she kisses Thomas again because whatever has been going on with her is still going on. She probably has another one of her reactions to when they touch and acts on it.

You know if Bell keeps this up, with the Tom brushes against her and she pounces on him, he is going to ruin any chemistry many people might see in Thope. JMO. Because it has crossed my mind that the way they are doing this SL is like Hope is a dog in season. And we all know a dog in heat has nothing to do with love, and everything to do with just getting an itch they do not understand, scratched. That is how I am beginning to view Hope now.

I think it's more of a mental health issue. The show has given us dialogue to suggest Hope fears she may go down the road her mom went down when she was that age. Half the characters on the show have mentioned Brooke's past. They even randomly had Wyatt bring it up.

Liam to Hope. Debate over.
