It doesn't matter how conflicted she is--she's still a terrible person. I agree. Morally ambiguous is fine, but Regina is about as self-aware as a doorknob. She's made small bonds in that category. Plus, I wish we saw her struggling with a moral compass. All I saw was her struggling with finding happiness.

If you actually watch the show, you would see all of season 4 was Regina trying to get Robin and screw Marian out of her happiness. Remember, Regina wanted to find the Author to change the book, so Regina gets Robin and not Marian. That was the whole whole plan, until it was revealed that Marian was not actually Marian.
