The whole jedi shouldn't be in a relationship thing didn't bother me. To me, considering their emotions dictate their powers and alignment, and the whole being a Jedi is a full time commitment and not some 9 to 5 shift, it would make sense to stay away from something as emotionally chaotic as a romantic relationship.

What happens if the two of them break up? Or get into a fight, as romantic partners are tend to do? Or worse yet, what if a Jedi is facing a near death situation? Most people in relationships experience anger, pain, and general hardships, as part of the joy of romantic relationships. Love hurts, as the saying goes, and it's affects can hurt deep, deep, into a persons psyche. Doing things out of love or a desire to be loved can drive people to do some pretty crazy things, crazy good and crazy bad.

That's what happens with normal people. But Jedi aren't normal people. Jedi are people with incredible powers, whose emotional states dictate whether they're gonna be peaceful defenders or genocidal maniacs, due to their stronger connection to the force.

And since the dark side is a path that is derived from strong negative emotions, having them be in a situation that is a breeding ground for negative emotions, and putting them that much closer to falling to the dark side, is a stupid move.

Hell, Luke almost fell to the dark side because Vader offhandedly suggested making leia his potential apprentice. What's gonna happen if someone makes a far worse comment about a loved one, or worse, that loved one says something truly hurtful to the jedi in question?

Where are the official Marvel and DC threads, you lazy people?
