We're passionate people and we love to share our passions with the people we love. All of this started as young lads in the sandbox, finding the coolest rock and taking it immediately to our moms to show them. Like that child in the sandbox, every Lord of the Rings fan has attempted to share their love of Middle Earth with those around them. Although it's tough to persuade your family to watch over 19 hours of movies (I'm including the Hobbit's obviously), occasionally our family members will still indulge our endless quotes, fun LOTR facts, and our ~completely platonic~ love Aragorn son of Arathorn.
It's okay if your family doesn't get your love of LOTR, however, when a true fan finds a girlfriend, she must cherish the Hobbits' trek to Mordor just as much as we do. Otherwise, that's a red flag.
Scroll for the hilarious comments that followed after a man discovers that his new girlfriend was less than thrilled with her first experience watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
