I just can't with Rumbelle. Not with any version of it. In the Enchanted Forest, it was Stockholm Syndrome, in S2, it was a girl constantly having to convince her boyfriend not to beat up and kill people, and he would literally do it if she wasn't around, in S3, it was a girl unknowingly marrying a manipulative coward using her for his own benefits, and in S4, it was literally abusive, with Rumple putting her under constant sleeping spells and manipulating her as easily and regularly as he breathed.
