Yes, normally the Elves were faithful, but it seems Fëanor was susceptible in that area - not to Lúthien, but to Galadriel. "The History of Galadriel and Celeborn" in UT relates his request for her hair as a keepsake (trophy?). Apparently it became his inspiration for the Silmarils.
Sorry if that was wandering too far, but there are some interesting thoughts about those characters in that chapter.
