Hm, that IS touching. I think it's hard to tell from Lord of the Rings that Tolkien himself was a romantic, but this certainly proves it.

I guess... I mean, there aren't many love stories except if you read the Silmarillion or the appendices of LotR... not in LotR as the story.

Funny the things that we talked about back then.. But now when I think about it, the Lord of the Rings was all one really big love story to one degree or another. not necessarily man-woman wise but the strong fellowship and compassion that was present and necessary to make such a story possible. having a few more years of experiences and friends, along with a few heart-breaks, makes me appreciate the style of writing that Tolkien exhibited. He truly recognized his "wealth" as it were and writing the way he did was one of the best ways for him to display it for all the rest of us to appreciate

Never thought of it that way, Merigin. There were a lot of different kinds of love in LotR. Good point!
