Your LOTR mate

For guys and gals


from LOTR who would you choose as your significant other


It's a toss between arwen and eowyn,but i'd choose the latter.
Arwen's a bit of a homebody. I'm a bit of an adventurer and I would like a mate of similar interest.

Besides after the LOTR she was a healer.

so i've have some to hug and hold
AND
someone who would be a comrade in arms

Probably Glorfindel, or Gildor. I think most likely Gildor though. I liked his personality.

Ahem, I am afraid there are only 3 female characters in LoTR, unless I choose marry Rosie Cotton, who's half my height. Or maybe I can add Shelob to the equation?

I think I will choose from Silmarillion, and that'd be Idril (Elbereth's taken )

But if I have to choose from LoTR, easy, Galadriel. Beauty and wisdom. Anti-establishment (didn't care about the West) and a fetish for Dwarves.

There's many more females than that Selwythe! There's just not a whole lot of very important female characters. Anyway I'd choose Ioreth.

So is Idril!

I also really like Faramir. Great personality, a total hottie <according to my imagination, anyway>. It'd have to be pre-Eowyn, of course.

on second thought

Selwythe's choice made me recall something


I think in unfinished tales or book of lost tales

there is SOMETHING about galadriel being "athletic" in her youth
or competing in physical skill against feanor or her brothers MAYBE?

if someone could verify that for me then i'd change to galadriel.

i'm 6' 2" it would interesting to date someone taller than I.

plus the beauty, wisdom, power, "magic", athletics goin' on

Unfinished Tales: "She grew to be tall beyond the measures even of the women of the Noldor, she was strong of body, mind, and will, a match for both the loremasters and the athletes of the Eldar in the days of their youth." (UT The History of Galadriel and Celeborn)

Yes, Idril may be taken but I'm Tuor.

In fact afro-elf, I do believe Galadriel was taller than you, by some four inches I think.

That's what I meant that it would be interesting to date someone taller that I am.

Defiantly Aragorn, though Legolas isn't that bad either, but I don’t usually go for blondes

I hate to burst your bubble, but even if Frodo really did look like Elijah Wood (I never pictured him that cute, not that I'm complaining), he's half your size. But I can see where you're coming from.

One of the few times I watched Oprah (in some time of dark despair, no doubt), it was about a blind date. A little person (about three feet tall or thereabouts) had been set up with a man over seven feet tall. They hit it off quite well, and actually fell in love.

I wouldn't know about Elijah Wood, but according to Gandalf Frodo was 'fairer than most [hobbits]'.

Yeah, Legolas looks cute in the movie. I have always had a hard time picturing him. I see that he has pointy ears too.
