Qui-Gon Jinn had a girlfriend. Her name was Tahl, a Jedi Knight he trained with, and in the old Jedi Apprentice books he falls for her, breaks the Jedi Order's rule against attachment, and lies about it to everyone including himself. It starts with a vision of her in danger that he hides from the Council and from her. I covered this in a video almost 8 or 9 years ago.
When she goes undercover on a dangerous mission alone, he defies the Jedi Council to chase her across the galaxy, years before he ever defies them over Anakin. On the planet he finally admits the truth, that she isn't just a friend or a fellow Jedi, she's his heart, and the two of them pledge themselves to each other against everything they're supposed to be. Then the trap closes. Tahl is taken, and across the books that follow, the loss pulls Qui-Gon to the edge of the dark side for revenge. It's the same trap that takes Anakin down, and Qui-Gon lived it first.
This is yet another example of how amazing Qui-Gon Jinn would have been to help Anakin Skywalker through his life and guide him in all his struggles with his Mother and Padme.
