If Rumpel is able to see into the future (like knowing about the outcome of the dark curse) why could he not see outcome of his relationship with Belle?
I believe he can see into the future, when he wants to. But when his own emotions are involved (as with Belle or Bae), he is blind. Or you could say, Love is blind. Didn’t he tell Emma that they lose their super powers when their emotions take over? When he can be impartial, yes, he can see into the future. But not at every moment … That’s also why he can’t “see” her now in the basement of the hospital dungeon.
I think he was just too thrown off balance by Belle. He never expected that, never dreamed of love. He wasn’t ready for it when it came. After centuries alone, it takes a little while to change gears! It’s too bad they couldn’t make up after their little spat. I know they would have worked out their differences.
