I've felt for sometime now that if there had to be a "forbidden love" aspect to Anakin's characterization, then it should have been because the Jedi weren't allowed to fall in love with people outside the Order, not because they weren't allowed to fall in love period. Making them chaste warrior-priests just added to the dehumanization of the Jedi in the prequels.
