I'm open to Lush's interpretation of the key phrase (meaning Aragorn felt some attraction for Eowyn). I think it has validity. It could well be. Aragorn may have found Eowyn attractive on more than a physical level.

Aragorn's motivation for leaving Eowyn behind, however, didn't have as much to do with protecting himself from temptation as it did with his accurate perception of WHY she was so strongly attractd to him, then doing the right thing by her. It just so happened that it was the right thing for HIM, too. That's how it looks to me, anyway.

Interesting thread, Lush! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
