I disagree. I think that Emma was scared of making a choice, mostly because Neal was the father of her son. But at least to me it seemed like they were getting along pretty good even before Neal died. Besides, Emma and Hook didn't become a couple until after they went to the past. and in that time, she was flirting with him and joking, while he had that cursed lips thing. I think that the fact that Neal died let her be open about her feelings. I also think that if he didn't die, Emma wouldn't be with him, because she never has, and never will, forgive him.
