<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Poor Frodo, can't get a girlfriend. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>The people in Middle-earth didn't have girlfriends. They were either married, engaged (as in Aragorn and Arwen's case) or totally single. Or else they were courting their loved one.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> I don't know about that. Being the wealthy, successful, hero of a hobbit that he was I'm sure Frodo could've gotten some action. I bet he could've gotten Rosie any time he wanted - he was just being too good of a friend to Sam, that's all. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>He wasn't a wealthy, successful hero. Merry and Pippin were the popular ones. As Finwe said, he was the shell of his former self, very quiet and withdrawn. He had learnt and experienced much, much more than the other hobbits, even Sam. <P>Rosie was not a random slut of a hobbit. She was true to Sam in her heart. It wasn't his good looks or his money or his status or his popularity (none of which he had much of), but him. She loved him for himself.
