10 Dumbest Decisions Made By Game Of Thrones Characters
2. Robb Marrying Talisa
After Robb Stark and his army needed to cross a bridge at The Twins, Walder Frey demanded, among other things, that Robb marry one of his daughters once the fighting was done. Robb agreed to these terms before going back on them when he fell in love with a field nurse from Volantis named Talisa Maegyr.
Against the advice of his mother and others, Robb pursued the romance and the two quickly married. Knowing he had to make right with Walder Frey, it was agreed that Robb's uncle Edmure would marry into the Frey family instead. This affair would later be dubbed the Red Wedding.
Along with the Roose Bolton, who had become disillusioned by Robb's leadership and saw an opportunity for political advancement, Walder Frey arranged a massacre at Edmure's wedding that saw the deaths of Catelyn, Robb and his pregnant wife Talisa, as well as the bulk of the loyalist Stark forces.
Robb's foolish act of passion lost him the war and the lives of his immediate family, and he is entirely to blame for the tragedy.
