it always sucks in romances when characters aren’t active participants in their own relationship or attraction. when it’s always “why do i feel this way” and they can’t name a single reason they like the love interest i’m like idk man i think you should get out of there maybe.
at some point if you’re going too hard on the Genuine Confusion and the character having no clue why they’re doing anything they’re doing or why they even like the other party it’s like. I think you were cursed by a wizard. or an author, which is something similar. it becomes something akin to The Narrative Has Mandated That This is A Love Story and Therefore I Must Be In Love rather than like. a convincing romance between parties who care about each other

Just because studio made it a canon, that doesnt make it right.
I recognise the studio has made it canon, but given that it’s a stupid-ass canon, I’ve elected to ignore it.
So many different things I could tag this with if I felt like it…
Who wants romance with a beautiful woman when you can get hassled by your handsome lizard man?
“and then they had okay sex. it was fine, it was sex of acceptable quality.”
