Just for the record, I didnt start this thread as just another 
shipper arguement about who pairs with who thats really why this is 
important to me.  I believe strongly that Snape loved Lily.  That 
doesn't mean that Lily loved Snape. Snape loving Lily explains so many 
things and would be the perfect secret to be revealed about Lily in 
the 7th book that JKR has alluded to in her teasers.  If Snape loved 
Lily, and Snape went with LV to Godric's Hollow to protect her, it 
would also explain why LV even gave Lily a chance to live which we 
know put the magical protection around Harry and protected him and 
nearly destroyed LV.  Snape's hatred of LV would make him quit the DE 
and work with DD to destroy LV.  It would also explain why DD trusted 
Snape because he knows how much Snape hates LV for killing Lily.  It 
would also explain why DD never told anyone else why he trusted Snape 
because everyone would say EWWWWWW!
