I love the character and the acting.

Rumple didn't care about the town being destroyed. Basically, the town is ungrateful, but also, he doesn;t care much about others in the town, minus a select few.

He didn't go nobody loves me. He said "Who could ever love me?". Regina is self-victimizing, but Rumple is self loathing. He sees himself as evil and thinks noone should or would love him and even he doesn't see why Belle loves him.
