I agree with what you all said.
It always seemed to me, that Eowyn`s feelings towards Aragorn were more a kind of hero-worship.
I also find Aragorns words at her bed in the houses of healing very touching and wise. "And yet, Eomer, I say to you that she loves you more truly than me; for you she loves and knows; but in me she loves only a shadow and a thought: a hope of glory and great deeds, and lands far from the fields of Rohan"
