That was my point that there could have been one the same age as rose.

Martin the warrior

I think Martin's love for Rose went on even after her death. He might have had a liking for another but it was to painful for him to love again

He certainly dealt well with all his other pain: He never feels so much as a twinge of self-doubt about all the killing that he does.

Mostly because he kills only in defense of others. Badrang is the only exception (I think) to that.
Martin the Warrior is way more epic than Mickey Mouse. Anyone who says otherwise is insane, or just wrong.

I seriously doubt that.

What all the killing that he does? He didn't kill very many if you pay attention to the books.

Does there have to be a reason why he never loved again? I mean, there's plenty of people IRL who never have a love interest. Why couldn't the same be true for Martin?

Shadowed One

Yeah, after Rose died, the storyline means he can't love anyone again.

Why?

@danflorreguba That last assault has plenty of bloodshed, so we can safely assume that Martin kills plenty of creatures 'off-screen'.  Even war-loving Achilles weeps after butchering many Trojans.

He killed some vermin in the book TLoL as well.

Maybe Martin never found the right mousemaid after Rose or he always judged them against Rose and found that they weren't as good as she was  :D I don't really know about this sort of stuff but I do know that love is a strange and unpredictable thing  ;D

So true!!
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
