Gimli and Galadriel - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

This question has been lingering around in my head for quite some time now:

Did Gimli actually fall in love with Galadriel, or was he just incredibly respectful to and awed by her? I know that in the appendices, it says that Gimli may have been let into Valinor because of his 'great reverence for the lady Galadriel' or something like that (can't find the exact quote.) Along with the rest of the clues which are in LotR (such as his argument with Eomer) I'm pretty much convinced that he fell in love with her. What do you think?
