Well yes, I think they were actually the main influence for Dallas' cold attitue. I mean just think, if Dallas had loving/caring parents would he turned out like he did? No. In my opinion, Dallas began "living in the streets" because he was trying to get away, he doesn't act nice or want to get attached to anyone because he doesn't want to get hurt again. He turned tough and scared some people, like I said now no one could hurt him emotionally and physically.
If Dallas had the kind of support and care that Ponyboy had, then he would of probably had turned out more like one of the Curtis boys and wouldn't have ended up dead.

yes, Dally doesnt like rules, he tries to break them any way he can.
Ponyboy believes that Dally could never love anyone or anything because of the harsh experiences and trauma Dally has faced throughout his life. He sees Dally as someone who has been hardened by violence and loss, leading him to build emotional walls and avoid deep connections. This perception reflects Ponyboy's understanding of Dally's troubled past and the way it has shaped his personality, making it difficult for him to show vulnerability or affection.
Ponyboy thinks that Johnny is more gallant than Dally. He admires Johnny's bravery and selflessness, especially in the way he acts during the fire rescue, putting others' lives before his own. Unlike Dally, whose bravado often masks deeper struggles, Johnny embodies a quiet strength and heroism that Ponyboy deeply respects.
Did you even read the book?! Jk! Yeah, they are the same person, Dally is just a shorter way of saying Dallas, so is Dal.

i think that dallys parents dont iven care for him and why should they even care about his influcence and his personality
Johnny loved Dally in a way that Johnny had never been loved before. He wanted Dally to know that just because they were greasers, they were people, too.

Johnny compares Dally to the gallant southern gentlemen in Gone With the Wind because Pony makes it clear that Johnny worships the ground Dally walks on.He in a non-homo way LOVES Dally. Dally is his idol. So when the book describes the gallant (brave, heroic) men, Johnny uses Dallas as an example, because that is how he sees him.
Dally taught Ponyboy that you need to look out for only yourself so that nothing can touch you. He tells him this on the way to seeing Johnny because he is really upset.
