Please, no more discussion of Aragorn - not only is he a completely un-obscure character, but the criticisms I have heard of him have been entirely unjustified.

"...he doesn't really love Arwen if he did how could he ask her to give up her immortality for him?"

First of all, it cannot be suggested that Aragorn did not love Arwen because, according to Tolkien the creator of Middle-earth, Aragorn did, in fact, love Arwen. Secondly, he certainly did not ask Arwen to give up her immortality for him, nor would he have. She made the choice for herself.
