Don't like it, it's your opinion, but taking any and everything and making it Hook's fault is taking it to a new level. I find many of the "justifications" and "reasons" by people here ridiculous and more of a desperate attempt to prove themselves right than anything. At the same time, maybe some will describe my explanations as the same. That's where perception comes in. To me, it's not Hook's fault that this relation is bad for Emma. Neither Emma. You know in some movies, two normal people meet and fall in love but this meeting exposures a chaos in world.. This is just like that. It's not Hook's or Emma's fault. Ths relationship is bad because of union of Emma and Hook. They are true love yes I agree with that point. But there are more important things than being true love. They suffer and cause pain because of this relation. It's not healthy. I always think that Emma doesn't need a lover to have her happy ending. She has her son, her parents, her friends. But with Hook, she always suffers. So is Hook. Since the "I love you" scene in Operation Mongoose Part 2, (and 5A), I totally lost my love and respect for that relationship. Same here. CS I feel tries to mimic Snowing in being an epic love story. I feel that CS is actually unique in its own way, however there's a stark difference.

Snow sacrificed herself to save David from the Evil Queen. David risked his life to save Snow from the torture of a curse. Emma risks the life of all her family and friends to "save" Hook by defying the laws of nature.

Sure Snow had the help of her friends at times, but they weren't there when it came to the parlay at the stables of Regina's estate. David never shamed her or try to kill Snow's friends. Somethings the writers did with Dark Hook took it a bit too far and too fast.
