Elves and Dwarves...together??

[thorondil]

Inderjit Sanghera says:

It was also in the nature of the Elves and the Dwarves no to get along (apart from the Noldor)

What about the Sindar?

Selmo says:

Galdadriel was the only Elf powerful enough to provoke such a response from a dwarf.

Why do you assume this? I'm sure many an elf-maiden of Doriath turned a dwarf's head. What about Luthien? She would have provoked a response from anyone.

And Galadriel certainly showed affection to Gimli. I think she was fond of him and was amused at how he was smitten by her.
