John Proctor hero or scrooge

I think John Proctor is a scrooge. Even though he loves his wife and told the truth, he always struggles to realize what's right or wrong. First he cheats on his wife whom he claims he loves. He also hesitated to go tell the town the truth. Not only that, but he gets himself into a lot of trouble. Not only does he get his wife into a point where she can get hung but he also ends up being hung. Proctor also had some feelings for Abigail so he would have to lie to her and say they never had any chance. Then when he tried to confess the girls were fraud the petition got all the people who signed it in trouble. John Proctor also lies to his wife all the time because he sees their relationship as being frigid or cold. Meaning that it's just a matter of time until he doesn't have feelings for her. John Proctor only tells the truth because he doesn't want his name to go in vain. He committed lechery but more the majority of his life he wanted to keep that a secret from the town. These things however don't make him a hero because he has done way to many things wrong cuz he's scared for himself. However that makes it known that he can't be a stooge either because stooges always look for a way to be a follower and he is one of the only characters in this book that doesn't change at any time.
