If he loves her, why isn’t he willing to wait for her? Maybe he’s not in love either, just obsessed.


Well, an obsession would be indicative of waiting.

He has waited 7 years according to Beth's age. No one should blame him for wanting to hang it up. It's his right, and like Hope keeps telling everyone, no one knows what's between them and how they feel.

Personally, no one should give up years waiting on another person. That's incredibly unhealthy and it's not love if that other person wants them to wait for something that might never come.

In fact, it's cruel, and if the situations were reversed, no one would expect her to wait around for Thomas if he weren't ready just like they don't expect Hope to wait around for Liam to stop loving Steffy. It's the same thing, waiting around, not feeling like enough.


So if he loves her, why wouldn't he be willing to wait? He loves himself more? He's prioritizing himself the way she is prioritizing herself? He feels that his needs matter as much as her do?


He waited 7 years, but for Hope it's a fresh feeling. I don't understand why everything should revolve around only Thomas's feelings? If for him Hope should be as ready after few months as he is after 7 years then he should just go to hell.
I agree that Thomas prioritizes himself... As we saw he even prioritizes himself over his own son and we saw how he didn't prioritize Hope when he harmed her and wanted to condemn her to a life of a grieving mother. lol


And I don't understand why everything revolves around Hope's feelings.

If he went to hell, hopefully, Hope will follow him. He's not going to hell, but he will consider going to Paris


It doesn't have to. Thomas is free to leave, but this whole acting like a victim is ridiculous. He is no victim. He can leave without acting like Hope is the monster in his story just because she isn't as ready as him.


Then it doesn't have to revolve around Thomas, and Thomas is not acting like a victim. He's not acting like a monster, either.


I disagree. Imo he is acting like a victim and this is how Steffy and Ridge see him. He should remember to apologize to Hope for lying that he is able to wait and that he is okay as long as she is in his arms before he leaves LA.

I disagree. IMO he is not acting like a victim and it's not how Steffy or Ridge see him. Hope should remember to apologize to him for lying that she wanted to be a family with him, Douglas, Beth, and her and that she was taking his proposal under serious advisement before he leaves LA.
