I don't know if Scott has a love of his life. (I don't know if anyone does, in any sort of objective way.) I mean, if it was any of his three major relationships thus far, that sucks for him, because they're over. Do I think he fully intended for Jean to be the love of his life? Yes. Do I think he felt she was for a long time? Yes. Did he literally abandon his first wife to be with her? Yes. Do I think she's still a hugely important part of his life and someone he'll always have big, important feelings for? Yes. But he's loved someone since then (Emma), and he seems to be in love with someone now as Sam, so if Jean was The One, then everything is pretty fucked.
No, I get it. That's fine. It's not like talking to him about feelings is ever easy. Or, frankly, that talking about real feelings at all is ever easy.
