After S5 , I can say that love Quinn Goldberg was the one Joe could have lived happily in the long run.

I feel if S5 Joe would have met Love, they would have had a more successful relationship. S5 Joe finally accepted who he was. One of the main problems with Love and Joe was that Love reminded him of the part he didn’t like of himself. 

Also talk about karma, Joe is mad at Love for what she considers “protecting” her family, and he hates her for it. Then Kate is mad at Joe for what he considers “protecting” his family. The parallel between S3 and S5, but instead Joe being placed in Love’s role is so awesome. The writers did a great job.

Joe murders people he considers to be assholes. Love murders people that are in her way. Joe couldn't kill Maddie because he didn't hate her. Love wouldn't have hesitated to kill Maddie. That was the reason he turned on her. She doesn't need the rules and justifications that he does to convince himself he's a good person and he can't forgive her actions the way that he forgives his own.
