I love how you put strengths and weaknesses. He has 4 relationships over the course of the book which is quite a few years...that is actually seemingly okay. College he has a girlfriend. After he married a woman. Later he sees Regina.ashleymarie310 wrote: ↑29 Nov 2020, 10:01 I don't know that it's a matter of a "bad side" and a "good side". Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. For Ron, I would say he bounced around in relationships a lot while trying to figure out who he is and who he likes. He also had a bit of a gambling addiction that could have ending drastically different for him if not for the redeeming qualities Regina helped him find in himself.
In a way he is trying to find himself and these women do help him discover the different aspects of who he is. His gambling is a habit that is fed by his math and love of it. But he is loyal and loving and has a wonderful personality.
