I've sometimes wondered about Maeglin's love for Idril myself. I really think it was more infatuation than anything else. For one thing, she was beautiful, and second, she was the first female elf he had ever seen (aside from his mother). Maybe if he grew up around Idril, or just other Elves, he would not have turned out the way he did. Just a thought.
