Anytime before watching Ep.3, what did you think made Vader fall to the Dark Side

I never thought it was over a woman, i was dissapointed by this fact for a while. to me it added to Anakin's pusynessness..

I just dunno how someone could love a chick that bad to the point where you lose it all. Your best friend, your sanity, everything. How weak. I call it pusynessness, like fighting for a girl and crap like that. Ill fight for me.

But besides that, I was saying i just never imagined Vader becoming the Powerful Sith Warrior he was to me, over a girl he loved. To me Sith embody hate. And he was a Sith when he was with Padme. Even as Vader, he was still sweet..but thats just me, no girl is worth that. I love the ladies but to go through that, for some ass, is fcukin' insane, just like he was. Insanely in love.

Oh yes, because being torn apart by love and devotion to one's closest friends and order is just SO easy to shoulder. That being said, he was portrayed as being a pretty big pussy.

An who said anything about close friends and the Order. In fact those were one of the most sensible, understandable and legitimate reasons, i think, for Anakins fall.
