The Bold and The Beautiful (B&B) spoilers and updates tease Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) will confess her Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) secret to Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton).

She’ll tell her ex-husband her real reasons why she didn’t accept Thomas’ second proposal, and her past with Liam is a big reason!

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Several Times Burned, Twice Shy?

Hope’s reasons for not accepting Thomas’ proposal boil down to being basically the same ones she fell for him to begin with.

Thomas was a man who loved her, and only her, and didn’t want anyone else-but she’d been burned so many times by Liam’s waffling she’s afraid to commit.

It’s a terrible conflict to be in, when she wants that committed love from Thomas but she’s afraid if she commits to marriage she’ll mess that up!

Thomas was very patient with her but even without Steffy Forrester’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) pushing him to dump Hope he was losing patience.

Steffy took it that Hope was only toying with him and never would marry him-perhaps she would have, perhaps not, but now she’s lost him forever.

B & B Spoilers – A Different Problem Than Liam Spencer’s

Liam’s history of waffling between Hope and Steffy shows he too, has a problem with commitment-he’ll tire of one woman and then want to return to the other.

Or, he’ll have a breakup with one woman and pushes himself into an instant rebound instead of letting himself heal.

That’s a different problem than Hope has, she’s not a waffler-she fought her feelings for Thomas for months before acting on them, whereas Liam went for Steffy right away!

As soon as Liam saw that kiss in Rome, Hope initiating it, not Thomas, Liam set his sights on breaking up Steffy and John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) Steffy, however, kept putting the kibosh on his mating calls.

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Liam Spencer Will Never Love Only One Woman And Stick With Her

Hope tells Liam he will never love only one woman and stick with her, no matter if it were her or if it were Steffy, or if it were someone new.

Then he’d be waffling between three women in possibly rapid succession and Hope couldn’t deal with that anymore, but neither could she deal with fear of failure of marriage to Thomas.

There seems to be something stuck in Hope’s subconscious, telling her if she marries Thomas that the pattern of being left for another woman would happen with him.

Truly, Hope needs to deal with her own fear of commitment before another romance whether it be a reconciliation with Thomas or whoever. She can’t see reconciling with Liam, and he likely can’t see one with her.
