What god or goddess did Athena love marry or desire?

Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare, is often depicted as a virgin goddess and did not marry or have romantic relationships like many other deities. However, she had a deep admiration for the hero Odysseus, aiding him in his quests and showing a strong bond of respect and kinship. In some myths, she is associated with Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship, who created her weapons, but there is no romantic relationship between them. Athena's character emphasizes wisdom and strategy over love and desire.
