[She has a feeling she'd like him too]

Master Kenobi, Anakin was young. You cannot fault him, especially when the very rules the Order lived by tempted him in the first place. By forbidding love, and marriage, one places a taboo on it that makes it all the more enticing and blinding. If Anakin didn't have to hide it, then it would have turned out quite differently. As it stands, the fear of loss is amplified by the taboo nature of the feelings.

Love is not a path to the Dark Side. Misunderstanding and a conservative culture of the denial of sentient nature, however, is.
