As winter slowly loosed its grip upon the land, Galadriel found herself about to undertake a journey she had not anticipated, leaving behind two of those she loved most in the world..

“Safe travels,” her husband said. Then he kissed her forehead and her lips before returning to the city gate. Most beloved, he would not travel through the dwarven realm under the mountains.

“May the Valar guide your path,” said her cousin. Loved only a little less or only a little differently, he it was who’d dismissed her from this realm.

“I had not thought it would come to this,” she said to him.

“Nor I,” he answered, “and I am sorry for it. Are you sure you will not stay?’

“I cannot.”

“I have loved you,” he said.

“Not enough,” she answered. “Not as much as ...”

“As much,” he replied. “But I was never allowed to love you as I would have wished.”

crush on the older, cool girl as an awkward young fellow and then, later, how much was a workaholic wanting to love someone but not wanting the details of a relationship to get in the way of the work

I think a lot of people have the issue of wanting to love someone who is unattainable--for a whole lot of reasons. I've noticed how people will do that and will pursue someone relentlessly until they cave in and then there is frantic backpedaling.
