Rewatching the pilot and yes, it’s one of the best pilots of all time. But what struck me the most…

At this point, does Don really not believe in love? At the end of the season when he presents The Carousel, is he really a robot showing what he thinks love is, but not feeling it?

Im one of the few people that thinks Betty is ultimately the love of his life, only bc when she leaves him, he finally respects her. Megyn, he never respects. And he has a platonic love for Anna and he probably could have really loved Rachel. But at this point, he really thinks his conning of Betty was even convincing her that love exists and that he loves her? Im surprised by that.
