Frodo is one ofLord of the Rings’strongest members of the Fellowship, despite seeming relatively useless in the movies.

He isn’t a knight in shining armor like Aragorn or a mage like Gandalf his power is moral.

Frodo’s resistance to the One Ring outshone everyone else’s as his heart was particularly hard to corrupt.

He is surrounded by his friends and family but feels alone.

Merry and Pippin married, like Sam.

Frodo, however, was seriously struggling with trauma by the end ofLord of the Rings.

But he also may not have wanted a relationship at all.

He inherited Bilbo’s spirit of adventure, which lent itself to singleness.

A queer reading, whereby Frodo loved Sam, is possible but was likely not Tolkien’s intention.

Perhaps, knowing this deep down inside, Frodo kept himself away from romance or having children.

Ultimately, trauma notwithstanding, it was probably this exact same spirit that made Frodo independent.

Frodo is the heir to Bilbo’s estate and destiny.
