Any romance that leads to underneath a bed.
My Qunari wanted to tie the knot with Sera but when she crawled under the bed I feared for her safety. My qunari is quite heavy and muscular, and her bed isn't very sturdy so I thought, "one of these days I'll accidentally squash her if she keeps hiding under there."
I had to reload my save when I saw that, sadly. I was 6 years old when I was trapped underneath my bed (metal frame, spring box, and mattress) and couldn't free myself so I don't want that happening to anyone. Sorry potential lovers but under the bed is off limits.

I'm OK with it if it happens as a result of actions taken (in favour of it, in fact), but don't want to be dumped because the plot demands it. That would be annoying. I approve of the Alistair/Loghain dump result. I really hated the Reyes/Cold Blooded Murder of a political opponent dump result. I should have been able to stand for what I believe in (which is anti assasination) and still found a middle ground with him.

Haha, good thing I have no problem with LIs murdering people. My options would be severely limited.
I'm not a remotely compromising person myself. If an LI did something I strongly disagreed with, I wouldn't like them anymore anyway. So I'm fine with LIs dumping you if you do or say something they really don't like.

I’m fine with murder - in games, obviously - but planning to murder the innocent seems like a bit of a red flag to the idea that maybe, just maybe, this otherwise normal and likeable person is perhaps a complete nutter.

The poll option could be referring to Solas, I guess, since his plan involves the death of pretty much everyone not an elf, some of whom must surely be “innocents”.

What would Gil's romance in Andromeda fall under? Moves too fast, not a character but a proxy for their craptastic friend, wants kids because crappy friend mocked their ability to have kids and then decided to inseminate them because "duty"? I personally would like to avoid that, not falling for it again.

I don't mind being dumped if I have done something that my lover finds morally objectionable, in fact I think they should, but I do object when it is because I'm the wrong race or social class or whatever. As for dumping me and giving me no good reason for it, promising they will and then leaving me dangling for 2 years before I get any sort of explanation, I'd rather not have that again. If they do dump me, then I'd like the option of finding someone else on the rebound, not locked into loneliness for evermore.

Let's see... I'd rather not have an obsessive LI (as in obsessed with the protagonist) who turns out to be abusive as well came across a review the other day for a "romance" mod for Skyrim (the mod I attempted to convert for the SE)...and after reading it my mind went all "nope" and I uninstalled said conversion and deleted all files reason? Apparently the main "romance" option of said mod is the obsessive abusive type who doesn't understand the phrases "no" and "boundaries" worse...many of the characters in said mod are based on characters from NWN2 (they even share names)...but it's very... hm...how do I put this...it's very cringy and insulting toward the source characters
I don't mind characters who're closed of that need time to open up...but there are limits
I also don't want characters who go on baseless immoral rampages of doom...unless of course we get the chance to play an evil protagonist and said LI is the only one approving of complete and utter world domination paired with slaughter and rampage (I've played Overlord on extreme evil...kinda like that) not that I'd touch such a LI, but it might be fun for one playthrough.

I genuinely have no idea which character this is supposed to refer to, none of the characters I've ever romanced have ever killed someone who didn't 100% deserve it. It's situational, but Anders can murder that girl Ella if Hawke doesn't intervene. But I'm a believer in a person's individual play being a sort of closed bubble, so I don't think it counts just because it's a possibility. What would Gil's romance in Andromeda fall under? Moves too fast, not a character but a proxy for their craptastic friend, wants kids because crappy friend mocked their ability to have kids and then decided to inseminate them because "duty"? I personally would like to avoid that, not falling for it again. Gil the character and his romance suffered from being woefully underdeveloped, so I don't think it's fair to consider him in that way. That aside, what I dislike the most about the romance specifically is that he moves too fast. But if there was more content there then it wouldn't be an issue. >.>

I went looking on the interwebs for evidence and found none, so I must have a false memory of Valen confessing to the PC. Thanks for setting me straight politely. Er, I don't remember that in the official game, and I played HotU I don't know how many times. When did that come up? The only previous love interest I remember was one who was killed by his demon master. Valen was never married that I recall.

Not only that, she literally takes conversations from the characters and (badly) recreates them in the mods. Saw a youtuber play the beginning and a certain conversation between Casavir and Bishop was used. It just felt so out of place and out of nowhere, like it was just there because she wanted it to be there. If you are still interested in romances for SKyrim, Anna's NPCs are inspired by DA (Though to be honest, I kinda got annoyed at them after a while. Also, some of the quests/scenes are broken for some people and she is not interested in fixing it). There’s even an (very much WIP) quest that’s essentially copy/paste Wicked Eyes Wicked Hearts. Personally I ended up with Kaidan, a very well crafted character mod. Not many personal quests, but he has a lot to say about the OG quests and his romance is well paced. He’s found in the same prison as Alternate Start - Live Another Life, so it fit very well with my character from a narrative perspective. He even has conversations with Lucien (another well crafted character mod though sadly he’s unromanceable). Generally Kaidan, Lucien, Inigo and Auri (also Romanceable) are a great quartet of followers without trying to imitate something else.

Generally Kaidan, Lucien, Inigo and Auri (also Romanceable) are a great quartet of followers without trying to imitate something else. mhm...went to look on their website and saw that in the Casavir mod she's blatantly copying Aribeth (NWN) and Cullen (DA)...heck, the latter even looks the same...with the same armor/clothes from DAI!
I mean, I'm all for taking inspiration from sources you love (as a kid I had a whole period of drawing blue aliens/people due to loving (still do) Daft Punk's "One more time"), but there's taking inspiration, and then there's blatant copying/plagiarism.
I currently have Kaidan, Lucien and Inigo as my squad...they're a fun bunch together Lucien: *mumbling* bird brain Kaidan: what was that? Lucien: *innocently* nothing, nothing at all! Inigo: *trying to diffuse the tension* I love rain! Don't you Mr. Dragonfly?
I use the Alternate Start mod as well, but made sure to install them after making an initial choice so as not to mess with things inside the Abandoned Prison Actually, I used the mercenary start...so that my character and Inigo actually have a past of being mercs together (not that my girl remembers that of course... )
In regards to Kaidan...saw a vid the other day where someone had him and Bishop (from Skyrim Romance) together in a team...the comparison between the two was very...err... Bishop rip-off: *wants to have sex in the middle of a busy city and gets angry when the pc refuses* Kaidan: *shares his views on the current political climate when asked by the pc and asks if the pc is doing alright* (I mean, the real Bishop from NWN2 was by no means a sweetheart, but at least he understood the words "no" and "boundaries" )
hm...I'll have to download Auri as well, it'd be nice to have a new female friend for my Dragonborn to break all that male energy

I feel like some of the options are more of a ‘Yes if it’s done right, otherwise No’. Also, some of the options depend on what kind of character I get to play. If it’s possible to play an inherently evil person, then I could see my PC going for someone willing to do evil things. However, it would never be my canon choice, but reserved for a later PT. That being said, there are a couple of things I don’t think I would ever accept from a LI. I am old fashioned and I like the idea of a connection beyond the physical one. Therefore cheating is BIG no. It doesn’t have to be a Romeo/Juliet type of connection, but they have to respect my PC enough to not go behind their back. Likewise I would prefer not to be dumped, though I might accept it under certain circumstances and if it is done really well. I do not want someone who’s emotionally unavailable, clingy or obsessed with a former lover. Being abusive is also a HUGE NO, even if my PC is evil, they’ll always be confident enough to never tolerate any abuse. I don’t want someone who’s stupid/incompetend in a ‘comic relief’ type of way. And while I love someone who’s more knowledgeable than my PC, I don’t want them to act like they are superior. I currently have Kaidan, Lucien and Inigo as my squad...they're a fun bunch together Lucien: *mumbling* bird brain Kaidan: what was that? Lucien: *innocently* nothing, nothing at all! Inigo: *trying to diffuse the tension* I love rain! Don't you Mr. Dragonfly? I don’t think Kaidan and Lucien have ever not liked each other in my PT. Just shows how much effort the mod-authors have put into their characters and their behavior. I use the Alternate Start mod as well, but made sure to install them after making an initial choice so as not to mess with things inside the Abandoned Prison Actually, I used the mercenary start...so that my character and Inigo actually have a past of being mercs together (not that my girl remembers that of course... ) I felt that the options in AS were overwhelming at first, so I ended up choosing to just get out of the prison cell. Didn’t realise it was the same prison as Kaidan until I ran into him in the cell next to mine. Ended up with this perfect narrative of two people helping each other escape a prison and then traveling together, developing feelings over time. The romance just felt so natural. Heck, I even stumbled on the main quest in a way that very much felt like a book plot. Could not have planned it better myself.

-- I felt the same, generally I take the "left for dead" option...which can be quite entertaining or deadly depending on where the game decides to drop you (such as Solstheim) sometimes I read through the options and try to decide what would fit my character once took the beggar option, starting out in Riften (typical rags to riches story) for my current character I head canon she has been a mercenary for nearly a decade before the start of Skyrim's story Recently got Auri who asked where my character was born...unlike the main game deciding it for you (aka. racial homeland for the race you picked)...I decided to go with my head canon of her having been born in Cyrodill I rather like how these companions help me flesh out my character's story

Generally Kaidan, Lucien, Inigo and Auri (also Romanceable) are a great quartet of followers without trying to imitate something else. Having companions that actually talk and have story lines might make me interested in playing Skyrim again. I got about 100 hrs into and....that was it. Are these mods for the special edition or regular (or both)?
