Remember in TEotW, when Lan pledged his troth to Nynaeve (while simultaneously rejecting her)? He didn't mention that she was a petulant bully who couldn't stand not getting her way even when she didn't know what she was talking about. Lan of the Many Nicknames just said she was "a lioness..."

We know that Lan loves Nynaeve and did not love Iselle or Edeyn, so the situations are admittedly different, but I find it interesting that he keeps getting romantically and sexually entrapped by these fierce, dark, commanding beauties. I don't think the similar character descriptions are coincidental.
