second favorites for me would be the female ones (since I generally play female characters who romance males ) so...my firsts are DAO: Alistair/Zevran (Nathaniel would win out if he were romance-able though ) DA2: Fenris DAI: Cullen
and my seconds would be DAO: Morrigan (only romanced Leliana once so...yeah) DA2: Isabela DAI: none yet since I've yet to play a male character in that game
voting for Morrigan though, since she's my all time second favorite

I am fascinated that Solas has not garnered a single vote in this poll, when I'm sure he'd be near the top in a 'favourite romance' poll. I guess people either love him the most or they ... really don't.

Alas, it seems Kirkwall left him too used to fighting off Qunari advances.

If Fenris didn't exist, I would just have Dorian and not have voted in the poll. I don't have multiples for each game, as some do, since those are the only two characters I care to romance in the entire series.

Well, Anders trumps Dorian for various character reasons, but Iron Bull won't let me top, and Zevran "learned" to be bi because offensive backstory blah blah. So Dorian.

Cassandra will always be my favorite, bar none.
But second favorite? That's a tough call.
Josephine certainly counts, and Morrigan certainly has drama and story-depth... I did a playthrough as a female elf in Inquisition to see the Solas arc, and that was a tear-jerker... I played a female human and romanced Cullen, that was very sweet...
I'm sure if I continued playing DAO or DA2 as female characters I would romance Alistair or Sebastian, I've heard that they're very sweet as well. I'm a sucker for cute romance.
For sheer pathos and depth-of-impact, I'd have to say Solas. The lore-altering revelations that Solas is combined with just HOW CLOSE he gets to revealing his entire plan to a Ms. Lavellan... I'm left clutching my screen silently screaming at Solas to "JUST TELL HER ALREADY!"
If, as a straight male, a fictional world with a fictional relationship where I decide to roll a female character of a different "species" JUST to see how a single plotline plays out differently... Yeah, I'd say that qualifies for second place.

After Inquisition was released, my favorite slot was taken up by a new occupant.
My former favorite was Leliana. I adore her for my Warden, and it has been fun having her make appearances throughout the trilogy, and getting the opportunity to interact with her again. However, after testing the waters, and trying out a couple of different characters, I have to state definitively that The Iron Bull is my favorite romance in the series, and of Bioware overall (my experience IS limited to the Dragon Age and Mass Effect series only though). I have discussed it many times before, but I will quickly reiterate that his unconditional support is awesome, his good humor is infectious, and his layers and depth and potential different relationship paths convince me.

The table really sells the meme.

In a wicked battle for first is Alistair & Solas. The one that loses gets bumped to third because it's easy to pick my second. Gideon Emery's voice will always solidly place Fenris in slot number two, it's like chocolate drizzled over thunder. I can't, *that subtle but heartbreaking inhale of breath* I can't. I am yours. Fenris's romance has all the good tragedy feels but ends begins sweetly if you're patient. You can really sense how much he wants to devote himself to Hawke but doesn't want to lose himself in the process.

I'm a dedicated Zevmancer so for overall second I have to go with Fenris. I like elves with hidden depths.

I say I'm going to romance someone else, but from the first "Your men are dead" in the alienage I know it's useless. And by the time I finish the game I don't regret romancing him again at all

And by the time I finish the game I don't regret romancing him again at all same here, I watched a small teaser on youtube where they introduced him before the game's release and I was like...I'm going to romance him I did go with Sebastian in my first run through though...but have gone with Fenris ever since...(unless I play a male Hawke )
by the way hilo , Gideon Emery also voices a character in a game called Fire Emblem Awakening your comment about the chocolate drizzle made me think of that character (called Gaius) because of his love confession
jump to 2.22 for the character in question (first character is voiced by Matthew Mercer for those interested)

I'd been a fan of Gid's voice since Final Fantasy XII so when I finally saw Fenris I was like "Yep, he's the one for me". LOL I know that feeling. I might be in the minority but I quite like romancing Sebastian but there's such a long wait for him & Fenris's puppy dog eyes make him hard to resist. Like I can't even flirt with Fenris once in order to romance Seb..it's so hard. jump to 2.22 for the character in question (first character is voiced by Matthew Mercer for those interested)
Thanks for sharing that! Now I'm imagining Fenris saying those things. lol But I also love hearing Mr. Emery use other accents.
