[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 337758, member: 57984"] But that's the eternal question about anybody who is like JR -- is he capable of loving anybody? Even his relationship to Sue Ellen was so fraught with his own, usual control/domination/exploitation issues (and her masochism) that one has a hard time finding the love in it, unless we really stretch the term. There is a gnostic school of thought that "bad" people (e.g., sociopaths, narcissistic personality disorder, borderline personality disorder) are a unique breed of person, one which is highly specialized in what they are, and our attempting to humanize them with qualities like "love" and rationalize their pathological characteristics as the "flaws" of an "imperfect" person are more-or-less pointless. But I don't know about all that. [IMG width="780px"]https://foto.haberler.com/haber/2018/09/20/dallas-dizisinde-j-r-ewing-i-seslendiren-oytun-11251456_2165_m.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
