He liked Belle for good reasons. He liked how she didn't act fake. He liked how different she was. He liked how head strong, how she always held her head up even though the others around her said she was weird, and yes her looks. But it is more than just her beauty.
Problem is he wanted a doting maid not a wife. He probably thought together they would make good "strapping boys".
He would of been a good husband to any other normal woman of the time. A war hero, a big hunter, obviously wealthy, wants a big family, and he is good looking.
.
But his ego is what gets the better of him.
It is what makes him the villain. He just couldn't get over himself. He thought he was better than everyone. I think he only went after the beast the moment he realized Belle perfered the Beast more than him. I also think if Belle loves ANYONE else in the whole world, anyone other than Gaston, Gaston would find a way to get others to gang up on the guy like he did the Beast.
In my opinion, stuff like this is why instead of live action remakes that Disney should make movies about the villains and what if they actually won or if something went wrong. Like one of my favourite Disney movies is the third Cinderella and it basically shows what would happen if the step mother got her hands on the wand.
But like ... Don't do it in a stupid martyr way like they did maleficent that was unecessary.
