The Hidden Love Lesson of Zelda and Link’s Relationship

What is true love? We probably all have different answers, including those that may believe true love doesn’t exist. It’s always a tough question to answer because love takes many forms and can be easy to confuse with infatuation. It can be easy to confuse with other special connections as well, such as if you have a child with another person – there is a certain bond that will generally always be there, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s true love. YouTuber ConnerTheWaffle decided to tackle true love in arguably the purest form of it – Link and Zelda’s continued relationship.

He goes through several different games, even ones where you may not necessarily think Link and Zelda are really… a thing. He covers the moments that make it subtly but clear they are in love, but can easily be overlooked. Moments we may be experiencing in our own life, but are incapable of admitting what they truly mean. What they represent when you find that in another person. Moments that… just feel right.

I could go on and explain further, but the real impact can’t be replicated in his words. Watch the video above and let us know what love is in the comments below. Note: We’re having a hard time finding the originating source of the art in this post, so if you know it let us know as well so we can give proper credit. It’s a beautiful piece, so we want to give credit where credit is due!
