I have trouble believing Snape would fall in love with a muggle or even a
muggle-born. <snip>
As I was saying, in Snape's worst memory we see him call Lily a mud blood,
which is an indication that he did believe the mud blood/pure blood
prejudice.
I also believe that "someone he loved" might not be a wife at all. It could
just be his friends (other DEs). Or maybe he was disappointed in "someone
he loved (Lucius?).
I don't think it would take something as big as a wife's death to stray him
from the DEs. If you imagine yourself among the DEs, you can imagine
seeing lots of 'little' things that pile up to 'this is wrong!' - "George"
and "GEORGE'S SISTER DIANA" theories (that can be found in Fantastic Posts
and were to find them, under Hypothetic Alley).
As for the wife matter, JKR said in an interview (can't remember which):
"Who would want Snape in love with him?" (not an exact quote)
I thought "only another DE" but come to think of it...
IMO, Snape is absolutely capable of loving someone, but it would take a very
'special' woman to love him back!
===============
Yes, but well. If he had fallen in love with a muggle, this is maybe why he
left the DEs. There's here in Belgium and France, this true story very well known of that guy who was a pure racist and joined a Nazi (Skin-Head) band. And one day, he fallen in love with an Arab girl he met by hasard... and left the band. This may be possible as well as in real life, but even more possible in
books, since in books, all is possible, lol.

As far as calling Lily "Mudblood", okay. It may because he was a Slytherin
and proud of it, and we know how much young people are easily influenced by
people they like/are around them. (I know what I'm talking about, I also
been idiot while my teenage years, such as "enjoying" music that I never
truly liked, to be accepted among others and all. And now, I listen the
music I love, and lots people rejects me, lol.)
But he also may have fallen in love with some DE chick. And she maybe got
killed for some reason, and Snape realised.
Anyway, despite he was bullied on at school and stuff, something else DID
happen to make him as harsh and bitter, when we compare his attitude at 15
or 16, and at 36, he's more secret now. Okay, occulmens is one of the
reasons, but there's something else. And that something is the reason of his
leaving the DEs...
But... WHY did he put *THIS* memory in the pensieve? Was he ashamed?
(underwear being dirty, or removed in front of crowd) Maybe something
IMPORTANT happened just after the moment Harry got caught by Severus while
watching the scene?
Or maybe.... just to make Harry believing his father was a perfect
guy/hero/etc and not show him the truth for the pleasure of annoying Harry
with 'evil lies' about his father? (Enjoying picking on Harry)
We'll anyway discover it, unless JKR is one of those evil author who enjoys
letting unanswered questions to the end of her stories to let us interpret
freely some stuff that could have happened and all... *thinks about Ringu*
Anyway, I don't disagree at all with those theories, I also think they're
VERY possible, but I have a HUGE default. I'm too much of a romantic chick
loving "forbidden and dark love" that ends up badly... Hehehe...
Valy.
