Thomas's Timetable is Wrong

That makes sense, I didn’t consider that he was counting all the prior years. Then he’s being even more unfair. It hasn’t even been a year since Rome and even less time that they’re in a relationship. I completely understand Thomas’s POV but I also get Hope’s. She’s the one I feel most sorry for in this situation, my heart is breaking for her. He didn’t give her more time. He had everything he wanted and he just threw it away.


You cannot continue giving someone more time when there's no guarantee they'll come around to your way of thinking eventually. If they decide down the line that they don't want to be married to you, then you've wasted all the time over them when you could have actually found someone who is on the same page and wants exactly what you want. And as I've said before, if Hope will come around to wanting to marry him, then she should agree to an engagement at least. But shes not doing that either. Which means there's no guarantee that she wants a future with Thomas. How is it fair for him to continue waiting then, and wasting all his time when he wants to get married? Let Hope find someone who is content with just having fun and doesn't want a commitment and let Thomas find what he wants. That's how real life works too.


I don't think that's disputed. The thing is, Thomas might be feeling differently about it all if Steffy wasn't in his ear. He must realize it's not unreasonable for Hope to not even have marriage on her mind so soon after a divorce...let alone get engaged.


I don't agree. He is the one that stormed out in anger when she rejected his proposal. In fact, I'd say Steffys reaction stems from how angry Thomas was. If he had been nonchalant about it I doubt Steffy would have pushed so hard for him to break up with Hope. Case in point, the first proposal. Thomas was ok with Hopes rejection. Steffy wasn't happy but she didn't interfere. By the same logic if Thomas had accepted Hope's rejection again, in my opinion Steffy would have stayed out of it again.

Plus, look at the things Thomas told hope that Steffi might be right about. He said Steffy might be right about him having dignity, pride and self-respect. Hope brought up Steffy and she was saying not to listen to her or to believe her. In turn, Thomas asked hope Direct questions. And Hope would not give him the answers. I wonder how fair it is of Hope to say not to listen to his sister or to believe his sister when hope is not giving him the answers that he needs.

He even told hope that he didn't think she could love him the way that he loved her. Hope did not contradict that. And that was telling him what he needed to know. He asked hope if she thought she could ever be ready. He asked her if she ever thought at any time even after he giving her the ring, that she could possibly be ready. Hope could not answer that.

At no point did Thomas say Steffy is right about you. Steffy is right about the Logan's. He didn't say any of that so I don't even understand why listening to her is a problem. He was smart enough to weave through her Vendetta and grasp onto the significant things that she said that pertained to him and Hope. And it caused him to ask hope the necessary questions. Again hope did not have answers good enough for him. And that's his right to then leave.
