I don't mind either ofthem on their own, but having both of them in the one game seems kind of hacked on and honestly not very appropriate given the circumstances, because you know, INTERGALACTIC WAR INSTIGATED BY ROBOTIC/ORGANIC HYBRID CTHULHU ARMADA OF SHIPS WHO WANT TO HARVEST EARTH and all that. It sort of kills the mood if you know what I mean. It seems like they're only present in ME3 because it's sort of expected and anything which goes against the status quo is totally not acceptable to a "design-by-committee" type of company such as Bioware or EA.

Seeing as how the first two games had romances, it's rather silly to say the third shouldn't.

If you think it is not very appropriate, then have your Shepard not romance anyone. Problem solved.

I think with the 'verse going to hell that Shepard (male or female) would want something that helps keep him grounded. Even a hero needs someone to help get him through the day to day every now and then.

Casey explained it as a World War II-esque situation: some parts of the galaxy have heavy fighting, others are left safe until the Reapers invade. There's plenty of opportunities to have a quiet chat. 

Remember that the destruction of the Protheans took centuries, and they were taken by surprise with the Citadel lost immediately. 

And Bioware games are known for their character interactions and romances - if you don't like them in the third one, it's easy to just say 'the mission comes first' when the dialogue options pop up.

Um, if the universe was ending around you, wouldn't you want to make the most of every good thing you had left? I dunno...like, being with your significant other or confessing your feelings to someone before it's too late? I know I would. And, if you study human psychology at all, you'd find that romances actually bud really well in those types of pressure-cooker situations because of the doom rather than in spite of it. All's fair in love and war, that kind of thing. Plus, reference ElitePinecone's post above...says pretty much everything else I wanted to point out.

It solves everything.

Just because it's there, doesn't mean you have to do it. If you don't like the romances, just don't do it.

What really? People will always find a way to hook up regardless of the situation. If they want to badly enough it will happen.

I have a friend who was born during the Blitz of London. Guess what his American Air Force Dad and British Mom were doing while the 3rd Reich was attempting to annihilate their ways of life.

Just saying, there is always down time. No person can be on constant guard. That said, yes I invoked Godwin's Law in a thread about lovemaking during an alien invasion. And it made sense to do so, so don't go being mad, internet.

@OP:
Being reminded of love in times of war is a necessity. Our heroes are not killing machines but humans. Here's an excerpt of a fanfic dialogue I wrote for my Shepard and Miranda that may illustrate this:

Shepard: Don't you think there's some knowledge better left alone?
Miranda: No. Not even in the face of....all this. What have you been fighting for after all? Wasn't it the knowledge we need to survive?
Shepard: And for you.
Miranda (exasperated smile): Don't be absurd. You'd have done fine without me.
Shepard: Duty and obligation are dry masters. I don't know if I could've done all this without knowing you were out there, somewhere. Didn't even matter if I was never to see you again. Just knowing was enough.
Miranda: You're a hopeless romantic, Commander.
Shepard (grins): Someone has to be, Ms. Lawson.
*they kiss*

well it definitely relives stress so i think its spot on having the opportunity to do it when you can get killed any minute now.

This.

It's not hard OP.

Now it is annoying as hell to have to turn people down in the first place and BW really needs to work on that. But it's not difficult.
