Mark's romance with Lexie or the lack thereof would always remain one of the most beloved storylines, etched in the minds of fans. The writers barely scratched the surface of the character but there were times when Mark, with his arrogant good looks, got away with things that were quite shameful. However, there were also times where Mark committed some selfless and kind-hearted deeds that he could easily take pride in.

Mark was rather brash when it came to dealing with underlings, at least in the beginning when he joined Seattle Grace. He was a hotshot, incredibly handsome plastic surgeon at the top of his profession, so perhaps he considered himself entitled to being insolent towards the interns, who were, as Bailey had so aptly put it in the pilot, 'the bottom of the surgical food chain.'

Mark made his interns run around, serve him coffee, and generally gave them a hard time, not being much of a mentor to any of them, until Jackson Avery caught his eye.

Mark and Lexie's story is one of the most tragic love stories in the historyof Grey's Anatomy. The two cared for each other deeply but somehow their choices drovethem further away from each other.

There was a time when Lexie was with Alex after she had broken up with Mark, although she still obviously loved him. At this time, the hospital shooting of season 6 happened and Alex was found to have been shot, bleeding in the elevator. At this time, Mark's efforts practically saved Alex's life. Hewas aware of Lexie's relationship with him, but instead of letting his feelings cloud his judgment, he chose to save the man the love of his life was currently dating.

Mark went on a massive rebound trip after Addison had left Seattle. He had sex with almost every nurse, intern, and resident in the hospital and generally gainedsome notoriety amongst the women for his behavior. The nurses' union even went to the extent of calling a strike and made complaints against Sloan due tothe string of broken hearts he had left behind.

Now, he was, sure enough, dealing with some heartbreak of his own since he had truly been in love with Addison. In addition,he was probably a verylonely man, with no real friends in Seattle, except for Derek who wasn't on the best of terms with him for a long time. Whatever be the reason, Mark slept around shamelessly, hurting women left, right, and center.
