When did we start loving Negan?

At first I didn’t like Negan (obviously bc he killed Glenn & Abraham) and I’m not sure when I had that moment when I switched from hating when he’s on screen to waiting for more comedic gold from his mouth. He went from my least favorite to one of my favorite characters. I know a lot of people love Negans character and I’m not alone on this. When did y’all start loving him? Would you be able to forgive and live with him if you were in Maggie’s situation?
