It seems to me that Rumplestiltskin is not as “dark” as the original Dark One. What I mean is that the previous Dark One really did not want to be the Dark One. He really went out of his way to get Rumplestiltskin to kill him and assume his power.
Now I know Rumplestiltskin is lonely and certainly missing his son and now his lovely Belle. But Rumplestiltskin has not yet found a successor. You’d think after “centuries” he would have found another desperate soul if he really found the curse a burden.
that is a very good point! although, maybe at one point, he might have wanted Baelfire to be his successor. but baelfire either died or ran away.

2. He wants to get out of the curse but he does not want to die. Therefore, he has spent his lifetime trying to find an alternate way of getting out of the curse. But in this case, why didn’t he go ahead and let Belle’s kiss finish working? Seems he still needs his powers for some other reason. Either he is trying to keep the Evil Queen from controlling all of FTL?
OMG, I don’t want Rumple to die if the curse is broken. That last part is very plausible. I don’t want the Evil Queen to control FT land either.
