There are many societal interpretations of Atlas Shrugged but nobody every talks about how Dagny Taggert's first love was some mega rich heir that was "destroying his wealth on purpose" and "only acting like a playboy for show" and "really only loved her" but can't be with her "because society" and by assuming that this character was inspired by observations of Ayn Rands real life experiences it seems reasonable that there were serious mental gymnastics going on to convince herself she wasn't dealing with a DiCaprio level playboy who couldn't commit "because society"
