Great men like Rand shouldn't be paired up with great women. They'll have no time for one another, and the relationship will become sterile and will eventually fail.

Elayne's destiny is to rule Andor, and the queen doesn't have time for anything more than a plaything, nevermind a proper husband, nevermind the greatest man of all time. Aviendha is also distracted by Aiel politics and has obligations that greatly supercede her commitments to Rand. There's also an undeniable cultural difference, and while it may seem rather sweet that they're always stepping on one another's toes due to ignorance, in the end they'll end up irritating on another, and resent one another.

Min loves Rand a lot and she has no personal agenda to get in the way of their relationship. She's a lesser woman than his other two wives, but only politically, and her simple nature makes her his perfect mate. A man like Rand doesn't want to finish off a day fighting the Shadow and have to worry about the safety of the Andoran queen, or whether she can see him, or some wierd conclave of Wise Ones in the Waste that denies him from seeing Aviendha. He needs someone like Min who's often around, and is happy to read and just be with him.

let's play "Stupid Question" : which one will (or should) Rand choose? - 11/04/2010 12:54:15 AM 1898 Views
I'd choose Aviendha. But if Rand were forced, I think he would go with Min ... - 11/04/2010 01:37:57 AM 1535 Views
Mat and Elayne? Interesting, but I don't see it - 11/04/2010 06:01:04 PM 1094 Views
I agree (with your title, if little else) - 12/04/2010 01:46:44 PM 1355 Views
Very true, I suppose - 12/04/2010 03:42:09 PM 1132 Views
He definitely won't choose one over the others - 11/04/2010 06:39:21 AM 1030 Views

Your reasoning seems to ELIMINATE Min - 12/04/2010 02:34:47 PM 1288 Views
Obviously Min is the only real option - 11/04/2010 07:05:33 AM 1185 Views
Their hotness doesn't matter, and anyone'd be pissed if they got preggers - 11/04/2010 05:54:55 PM 1037 Views
I'd go for Min for "should." - 12/04/2010 12:15:09 PM 1180 Views
I'd go for Aviendha for "should" with Elayne being a good second option. Min is not a good match. - 12/04/2010 04:07:36 PM 1168 Views
Wow. Getting it right, in such a wrong way. - 12/04/2010 09:27:26 PM 1177 Views
elayne = no, not because of my preferences - 12/04/2010 04:35:14 PM 1131 Views

There is such a thing as healthy "need," - 13/04/2010 03:36:31 AM 943 Views
Elayne is the obvious choice - 12/04/2010 06:44:20 PM 1052 Views

Elayne makes the most sense... - 13/04/2010 12:51:36 PM 1064 Views
