The Ocarina? I'd say some songs could remind him of people ( Saria's Song, Epona's Song ) but the Ocarina itself, who else but Zelda? The info screen flat out says it. Touching the Ocarina puts him into a flashback of Zelda...it was the instrument that made the previous game possible, and the reason Ganondorf was after her initially. Zelda as Sheik had many duets with Link with it..it's likely full of memories of them.

But love IS the deciding factor there, in fact the point of the whole tale. She was bound by promise at one point, but that was a mere plot point to keep her interacting with him. Didn't he release her later from it?

I doubt the Zora populace, or the Hylian one would fault him. Never mind the fact they are likely biologically incompatible ( see MM and the Zora Eggs ) which would make heirs impossible, Zoras and Humans have drastically different cultures and lifestyles. And Link is the kingdom's Hero..in MM it is stated he took his place among legends, inferring his deeds were known. He probably could do no wrong in this case.
