I think Baelfire was turned into ageless object or animal until he came in contact with Emma. i prefer a frog but anything will do.

I’ve been thinking about Emma, Henry, true love, the Charmings, and Henry’s father and it kept circling in my head. The theme of the show is that true love is the most powerful magic in the world. It got me thinking in OUaT that true love begets true love. I’ll explain…
Snow’s father loved her mother deeply. We’ve even seen him talk about it in front of Regina. So Snow is a product of true love. Then there is Charming. His mother tells of how she dearly loved his father and that true love will follow the ring she gave him, just like it did for her. Next in line is Emma, who we know is the product of Snow’s and Charming’s love for each other, and hence why she’s the savior curtesy of Rumple’s curse.
So that leaves Henry. The last in a long line of true love. We know that Emma truly loves Henry, but unlike the others, he’s not the product of true love. He’s the result of some messed up, accidental, dysfunctional relationship. She was a teenager, he wasn’t told she was pregnant, then she got arrested. Not the outcome of true love. So what’s different with Henry? Why did the cycle stop with his conception?
Or will his parents ultimately be each other’s romantic true loves. The show preaches it and shoves it down our throats, so why for the main character does she not have what everyone around her, even Rumple, has? Do you think they’ll eventually bring back Henry’s father, whoever he is, and redeem him in her eyes?
I <3 it. You are so right. It doesn't fit. They all have the same true love surroundings. We already know that Emmas response to intimacy and responsibility is to run. Maybe she was truly in love with him, and that's what scared her. Made her run. Somehow it went wrong (jail). I'm sure there are tons of us who are guilty of running from love out of fear of being hurt. Lol. That would explain her over-thought answer to Henry, yet we know how she really feels. Somewhere down the line they will reunite, and suddenly she'll have the ultimate true love; the FULL loving wonderful family she's never had nor could have ever imagined. <3
I love this theory too that since her parents were the products of true love and that since she was the product of true love, that Henry should be too. Plus, since it is a show about fairy tales produced by Disney that whomever Henry’s father is will turn out to be Emma’s one true love. I’m guessing he’ll be like Emma too in that he’s someone from the Enchanted Forest, who escaped from the curse, but who is an original creation by the writers.
In a recent interview with Jennifer Morrison, she said that since season 1 was about Emma's developing relationship with her son, then season 2 is going to bring a love interest into Emma's life. My theory is that it could either be August (if he's restored from a puppet to a man), Jefferson (with whom there was chemistry), or perhaps even Henry's dad.
Since I believe that Baelfire is Henry's dad, I'm not sure if they would introduce him so soon since they had talked about the viewers finding out who he is would be like a season 5 or 6 twist. However, I'd rather they wrap up the mystery of where Baelfire went and where he is now, by the end of next season since I don't want it to drag on any longer than that. I guess they could introduce him and not have him interact with Emma just yet, but if he is her one true love, I'd rather see hints sooner than later since I think Emma deserves to have a fairy tale romance like her parents do.
