And to Glider: I thought that at one point you used that line as part of your arguement, my bad. Also, he's only shown to of a pure good heart as a child. Sure, he does become an adult in OoT, but he is still a child mentally and emotionally. What you are not considering is that people change after the years between 10 and 17, and the likelyhood of Link still being that kind of guy decreases.

To clarify, I don't think that Link is necessarily lacking in the hormone department, I just think he's better than to give in to it, or allow this factor to make his decisions for him. Why would Link change into something less as an adult? I'd think by the time he was an adult that he may have conquered this better and have a much clearer view on what he needs to do. I can see youth, hormones and immaturity leading to him falsely believe he could say, for instance, make a living with Malon whereas adulthood would teach him such a small existance is not for him. Overall, I think Zelda is the more mature and wise choice, the one he'd make in the end.
Someone is likely to jump on me for suggesting Malon is an immature choice, so I'll elaborate. When I see her and her method of pursuing Link, she reminds me frankly of a flirty and somewhat foolish teenage girl. It's all looks, cuteness and flattery towards Link and she believes he will solve her problems for her.
When we are dealing with Zelda, it's kingdom first, herself a distant second. She has already realized that the world is a big place, and her desires irrelevant. She also knows she does need Link, but takes action to fix her situation even if she ultimately fails. I can see her as wanting Link ( she's still a woman! ) but she won't chase him. She has more things to worry about.
