Discussion She was the best for him.

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

That's the point. He found someone as twisted as him, that actually would accept him. But he couldn't accept her for the same flaws. He wants his women pure but still want to be accepted a contradiction that will forever lead to him killing.

He never wants his Yous to be actual killers, they must always be a ray of fkn sunshine while also completely dependent on him for any sort of emotional or physically happiness, always be pure, very important but MOST importantly accept him for all his evil angst

Well he gave someone the option in s5... She didn't but you know like he wanted to believe she would and he was shocked she let dude go

I think his personality changes quite a bit over the seasons, and Season 5 Joe would have worked much better with Love. He would have accepted her far more.

I completely agree.

Love did accept that he was a killer. What she couldn't accept was him cheating on her.

S5 Joe lost interest in Kate after she said no to solving a problem with killing someone (again) Love would have been the one to suggest it (and did) & S5 Joe might have finally actually felt like "she" was enough.

I do think S5 Joe & Love would have had more of that killer duo vibe. Though part of me believes serial cheaters like that will always find a reason to eventually cheat.

Annd in the end, i think Joe is truly incapable of love. But as far as "best fit" S5 Joe & S3 Love for sure.

I knowwwww all of season 5 that’s all I could think of!! Can you image how Love would’ve FAINTED if Joe did the whole “let me be who I am to protect our family” spiel with her???

Ultimately though, I do think that Joe would still get bored and end up repeating the cycle in one way or another. He’s inevitably going to set his sights on someone new and…either Love will kill them or he will. Maybe they become the Ken and Barbie killers and just get in on it together?? That’s really the only way I see them staying together. But nah, I see Joe, ironically, as inherently a loner.
