[QUOTE="Sarah, post: 256311, member: 6"] Linda once said that Sue Ellen ONLY loved JR and she's right. She may have had deep feelings for Dusty but it wasn't the same as what she felt for JR. I would never ever want to see them apart because when it eventually did happen, it was the end of the show as we knew it. Having said that, Dusty would have been a better fit than Don Lockwood when Sue Ellen did leave. Of course JR was miserable when he saw her with Dusty, because he wondered what Dusty could give her that he couldn't. 'I want you to smile at me the way you do that cowboy'. JR resented him deeply - he earned the golden title of 'Saddletramp'. That's contempt. I think you are right [USER=5150]@Ukdallasfan[/USER] - and it's been explained through the wonderful words of [USER=5055]@CeeCee72[/USER] on another part of the site. JR always either went to another woman when Sue Ellen had rejected him, or chased what he wanted at any given time - thinking Sue Ellen would always come back to him, which worked for a while, until she decided not to take it anymore (after Kimberley). Kristin was a challenge - but he would never have gone there had he and Sue Ellen not been having problems. Even if he did it was never going to be a long term thing. My belief is that [B]NO ONE[/B] was a long term thing for JR - except Sue Ellen. He figured she'd always be around. He underestimated her and vastly took her for granted. Not only her love but her intelligence too. I always blame him, because with him, the majority of the fault does lie, but she really needed to put her foot down sooner than she did. Instead of punishing him by staying in a separate room, she should have left the Ranch (until he came crawling back), but I will [B]not[/B] blame her for her alcoholism, which overruled many of her decisions back then. She wasn't strong enough. She grew to be stronger than he ever was. And, at the very end, she had him in the palm of her hand. As Linda said, "She makes him come to her. Come...to the Queen..." :kiss: [/QUOTE]
