Potioncat answers by quoting Jo:

>From an interview with JKR 16 July 2005:

MA: Oh, here's one [from our forums] that I've really got to ask you. 
Has Snape ever been loved by anyone?

JKR: Yes, he has, which in some ways makes him more culpable even 
than Voldemort, who never has. 

Potioncat, who hopes Alla doesn't go into shock when she reads this
