I think it would be awful to be Celebor, if you're a man it would be awful anyway. Not ruling a kingdom, having to be one step behind a woman who has more power than you, not doing anything fun like showing people their possible destiny, and just constantly in the backround. He seemed to be coping with it though. Just happy to be there I guess.

Yeah, movie-Celeborn just kinda stands there, although he has a few more lines in the Extended Edition. Book-Celeborn is better, though; at least he plays a more active role in the story instead of just being second to Galadriel.

In the book Celeborn is the one who talks about Gandalf's falling and his many deeds in life. So he was of more significance in the book.

Exactly.
I see no reason for Celeborn to be particularly unhappy, though. He co-rules an ethereal wood and has a beautiful and strong wife. Not a lousy situation in my opinion. |

I agree! Not too shabby for Celeborn!

I'll go with Gwindor. Not only was his brother executed before his eyes, but he was taken in chains to Angband shortly afterwards and enslaved there for fourteen years. Then, when he escapes, he finds that his former beloved has fallen in love with another. Triple whammy!
  But what about all those poor Elves who were captured not long after awakening and twisted by Morgoth into Orcs? Seems they had it pretty hard too.

Had it hardest? I'd have to go with Maedros and Fingon there...and not for the reason you're thinking, but the most angsty would have to be Maglor!
