I just recently started replaying one of my favorite scifi series and decided to mix things up a bit. The first time I played I romanced Ashley, Miranda, then Ashley again. Now that Ive grown a little Ive seen the light, Liara all the way. However I also love Tali's character and now Im conflicted. Here's my situation so far:
ME1 - Romanced Liara
ME2 - Started Romance with Miranda without remembering I could romance Tali, and now Im stuck.
ME3 - Plan to romance Liara
Here's my question, I have read there's a way to romance all love interests in a single game, just do so after the suicide mission. If I romance Miranda before the mission, can I break it off afterwards and go to Tali? If I do, what are the repercussions in ME3? Will Tali have the hots for me? Or does the game glitch out in some fashion? If I romance Miranda but break it off at the end, will ME3 treat her like a love interest? If I romance Jack, and then break it off, will she be pissed in ME3? Or will she make out with me on Grissom? I dont really care about fallout out from Jack or even Miranda at this point, I just really want Tali in ME2 and Liara in ME3. I know about the shadow broker but I already did that DLC and dont have time to replay ME2 at this point (still need to get in ME3 before Andromeda).
Does my questions even make sense? Has anyone encountered this scenario before?
Many thanks in advance as I cant find the answer anywhere. I know it can be done, I just dont know what the repercussions are. If the only alternative is to break it off with Miranda before the mission, so be it. Will Tali even want me after that?

Ok, I'll can give you some info.
In order to romance more than one character in ME2, you need to leave some missions undone so that you have missions you can do to advance the second (and then subsequent romances) through their conversations.
So, for example, you can take Tali's conversations to the point where she tells you about her suit puncture and then flirts with you... then don't talk to her again after that (leave her hanging). Then go through the SM still locked into the relationship with Miranda. After the credits roll and everything, you can do a file save and then go break it off with Miranda and run down to Tali and lock into that romance with her. The sex scene with her will immediately follow. You can then do a second file save not overwriting the first one.
Now, on the Xbox 360 at least, you will have two different file saves that you can import into ME3 (since both are created after the SM has been done)... one where your LI is Miranda and one where your LI is Tali. If you wish, you could then do a mission, talk with Tali to break it off with her, and have a third file save where, technically, you have no LI. Then, if you've taken Jack to the point just before locking in with her, you can go talk to her right after breaking if off with Tali, lock in, and her sex scene will immediately follow that conversation. That's how you can get the sex scenes with all of them in one playthrough.
Now, I'm not absolutely sure of this next part, but I think ME3 recognizes your LI based on which file save you import... so, if you select the first file save when you're still with Miranda, she will be your ME3 LI. If you select the second file save with Tali, then ME3 should (I think) recognize Tali as your LI and treat Miranda as though you never romanced her (that is, it's not like if you break up with her in ME3 where she automatically dies).
If you just want to switch from Miranda to Tali before the SM, just take Tali's conversations to a point where she'll tell you she doesn't want to share you. At that point, you'll have an option to tell her you're going to break it off with Miranda... and then you can go break it off with Miranda before the SM... and the Tali romance will just proceed as normal from that point forward.

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. Ive gotten Tali to the suit puncture convo. I did the Suicide Mission once and Tali approached me with her "me or her" convo. Can I break it off with Miranda here and romance Tali? Or is there one more convo with Tali Im missing?

During this "me or her" convo - you want to tell her that you'll break it off with Miranda and then go to Miranda and actually break it off with her. I believe the line is something like "I think we should keep it professional." Then do a side mission (hopefully, you have left some undone). Then go to Tali again and this time tell her you're still interested. The sex scene should kick in right after that conversation is finished. You won't be doing the SM again. If you have no side missions left, then what you should do is go to a save you have on file from before you did the SM. Break it off with Miranda before the SM and then proceed with romancing Tali.

Technically that is not the same as romancing multiple characters in the same game when you create multiple save files. You are not romancing them all in the same game essentially.

Technically that is not the same as romancing multiple characters in the same game when you create multiple save files. You are not romancing them all in the same game essentially. ME2 lets you make about 30 (on the Xbox 360 at least) sequential saves in one walkthrough of the game. You can opt to overwrite them... or not. What I'm saying is after the SM is done, any of the sequential saves you make are eligible to be imported into ME3. The romances still take place in one walkthrough of ME2... just when you import into ME3, you don't have to select the last save, you can select the one before it. If you do select the one before the last, then the romance with the second partner hadn't take place yet when that save was made. ME3 has no way of knowing that you went on after that point to romance someone else... so that save will acknowledge the first partner and only the first partner. IF you import the last save (which was made after you romanced the second partner... I said I wasn't sure if ME3 just acknowledges the second partner or if it keeps track in some way of you having romanced both. That is, when you go to confront Ashley, I not sure whether she'll just be jealous of the second partner or if she'ls say (as she does sometimes), "I heard you worked it out with lots of women." (or something close to that). I've never imported a file into ME3 where I have gone from one partner to another after the SM. I have gotten that line out of Ashley by first bedding Jack, and trying to kiss Samara before the SM, and then inviting Kelly up to the cabin after the SM.
