Question

What happened in the past between John Proctor and Abigail? Now that seven months have passed, how do each of them feel? (The Crucible)

Answer 1

John and Abigail had an affair.
after several months Abigail is still in love with John, but John does not feel the same way he even said he would rather cut off his hand than to touch her. He clearly has no feelings for Abigail when Abigail goes as far as to accuse Johns wife of witchcraft in hope that she can replace his wife.
