What it sounds like
Eloise is glad she isn’t Daphne and never will be.
What it really means
“She rejects Daphne’s idea that her marriage sets a standard, making clear she wants nothing like Daphne’s life.”
Said today
“The only thing I’m thankful for is that I’m not you—and I never will be.”
What was happening
Daphne tells Eloise she should be grateful because Daphne is setting the standard for her future matches. Eloise turns that supposed reassurance into a rejection of both Daphne’s example and the future she represents.
