Galadriel- a love lost? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

All these great posts got me to thinking, what if Galadriel had actually loved Feanor back in Valinor? I mean, when she was young, being so similar to Feanor (in their spirits, without the darkness that fell over Feanor), she must have hero-worshipped him. Which of course, Finarfin wouldn't have approved of. Once Feanor started badgering Galadriel about her hair and the resulting events, she saw the darkness in him and knew that she couldn't love him.
She probably saw a little of Feanor in Celebrimbor, and remembered her childhood love.
