Hope and Thomas are not Romeo and Juliet (General)
It doesn’t work for me. While Shakespeare didn’t spell out the reasons for the feud as I recall, I do not remember Juliet ever being Romeo’s victim. He never ever did something as horrific as withholding information about the whereabouts of her kidnapped child. So even if show is going to turn Foresters and Logan’s into Montagues and Capulets, it’s such a false comparison. Tom may be sexy looking but he is not Romeo. I’m all over the place on who will call authorities, but now I think it will be Liam and he and Hope will fall out over it. Then, Tridgesters will celebrate not only winning Ridge and Douglas but seducing Hope to their side.

They'd come out better with a Hope/Zende pairing than Thomas. He's a flat out villain, and he'll never be convincing as anything else.

I’d take Hope/Zende! And Carter is available really now that Quinn is gone. If they don’t want Lope, we’ll, I’ll take anyone but Thomas for Hope.

I see no sign that Lope are headed to a breakup. They are married since 2018 and they are happier than ever. Liam just threw shades at Steffy and I don't think Hope is interested in Thomas.

Surely not but the actors SURE have chemistry…
Too bad Hope was never torn
I would have liked Hope to feel irresistible physical attraction for Thomas so she could understand the power of passion … and be less judgmental

I agree AN and MA have good chemistry...but to make it work they should not have had Tom return as a manipulating and obsessive man but as a grieving widower.
Hope and him could have bonded over their grief. It could have been a sweet romance.
But now it would be nearly impossible to find a reason why Hope would forgive that he didn´t tell her about Beth. What a pity!

ICaM …
Even if Hope forgave him for Beth, Thomas character was really damaged
MA ans AN interaction as parents and friends especially today are interesting when I FF lope and Hope in general bc I find her dull

I can agree with that but this show always turns victims into villains and villains into victims. I have no problems with Thomas and Hope had they not had him do so much related to Beth’s kidnapping. A young girl lost her life. OK he did not hit her car but he was chasing her. When Sheila did the same thing to Li, everybody thought it was criminal.

And Li didn't die. I don't get the double standard there, either. And even worse than chasing Emma, Thomas didn't call 911 for help for her. He just looked down at her and left and didn't tell anyone. She could have been unconscious, not dead.

Hope might be interesting with Tom

If course she will. They have a name for women who fall in love with people who victimize them. It will be great fodder for Stockholm syndrome story. I think some people have this fantasy that women desire to be abuse or mistreated. It’s a turn on.

I think Brooke could have that he seems to keep taking ridges flirts ….and actual Hope excuses Liam’s cheating maybe they both have it

Then Finn certainly has it. He does Steffy's bidding all the time, and he never complains when she ignores or mistreats him.

And Taylor keeps getting dumped , leaves the country and comes back for more, she gets dumped leaves the country and comes back for more. She throws herself at Ridge and had goes home yo Brooke, she throws herself at him again and again he goes home to his wife.
Steffy cries begs gets dragged on the ground hanging on to Liam's leg, manipulates with Thomas to get Liam back again and again.
I think it's Taylor and Steffy that need help.

I thought it would be Liam at first, but now I think it'll be Steffy or Thomas, probably Thomas.

Liam was my first thought. I thought he would see how Hope is hurting and want to do something about it.
