Message: <blockquote data-quote="DallasFanForever" data-source="post: 256480" data-attributes="member: 13221">Sarah I gotta say you ask some tough questions sometimes, but I like that. Why did she love him so much? Hmmm, hard to answer for a variety of reasons. Firstly, we weren’t around for their early years together. Secondly, people fall in love for so many different reasons, some of them even illogical. But putting myself in Sue Ellen’s shoes for a minute, she meets J.R. He’s charming, he’s handsome, he’s successful, he does show a sensitive side when he wants. He’s funny, he’s witty, he’s driven, and despite his faults that we see later on he does love his family. Even though his last name is Ewing and she knows he’s loaded and will run the family business someday, not to mention that her mother is pushing her with both arms towards him. none of that is really that important to her because she knows based on his personality alone he’s going to be successful no matter what he does in life.  So I definitely can see how she fell in love with him. And despite the cheating and the manipulating that he put her through later, she always remembered how good he was to her in those early years, and deep down she hoped that their marriage could return to those days. So despite her disappointment in him, she never stopped loving him cause she remembered how good things were in the beginning and wished they could get there again. She held onto that through all their problems. That’s just the way I see it.</blockquote>
