And in 7.02 the woman he loves, the one who is life isn't complete without ran straight from him into Chris.

The two things with Lorelai and Nicole. Those were huge things that went straight through his heart and really broke luke up inside.

It's not like everytime something doens't go his way he gets violent. Things didn't go his way with Lorelai for 8 years. he NEVER turned into a big storm hitting people.

I don't know if i'm defending this well at all... but I just hate when anyone makes a big generalization about Luke being some big violent guy when that's not how he is. He's had his moments... but those were huge, awful moments in his life and he just doesn't run around hitting people when things aren't how he wants them to be.
Exactly. He's grumpy, not violent. There is a difference. Besides, I see most of his grumpiness as a front because he's insecure and doesn't want people to see that. The Gilmore Girls and Liz used to be the only people to penetrate that, but now April has and soon Liz' baby will too. I love the grumpy part of him and the sweet caring part of him.

ETA: Carolav, I think that there is a difference between having a temper and being violent. I know lots of people who have tempers but who aren't violent. Violent is actually physically hurting someone. A temper to me is someone yelling a lot. I'm not saying that having a bad temper is good, it's just a big difference than actually physically hurting someone. YMMV.
