No, Lush my dear, I didn't forget. My point was, what commanders WANT. And they want no emotional entanglements.
Having said all that-- the Fellowship was a different kind of team, mature (mostly) and varied (mostly.) And I also think the emotions between the males were pretty strong. So I agree with you there.
However, compare that, with Gimli's reaction and devotion to Galadriel. If Galadriel was endangered, could Gimli be objective about it? I don't think so.
