I come back from weeks of not having BioWare in my life and I hear that there might be new romances with new people available? While new content is always welcome, I find it difficult that BioWare will be able to give any of those romances the amount of depth that romances in the previous games have gotten. 

I mean, these romances will likely end with ME3, so why bother introducing new ones? 
At any rate, why not focus on current romances?

1. Providing previously absent gay options
2. They want the game to be accessible to people new to the series.
3. The new romances are hot (hopefully)

Poorly executed sex scenes are apparently very popular and sell well.

wait what if you have a past romance? I hope you can choose to end it and go with a newer one. I would dump Liara for Shiala. lol

Actually I think new works fine. Miranda was new when ME2 came out, she was extremely popular (too popular IMO). How does being new in the third game change anything?

Introducing new romances where there are already 9 waiting for proper conclusions in asinine. Why not just open old ones to S/S romance?

Because a lot of people would rage for character "rectonning".

Becasue that would require a RETCON (gasp!!!).

Better that than to create new characters just for romance. Less resources required, more chances of all of the existing romances having proper development, depth and conclusion.

Why new romances? Because pie.

And seriously, the old romances get satisfying conclusions and the new ones are fun. After reading the leaks, I have no complaints; the more the merrier.

Like in real life many people don't like to settle down. We want a new love interest.

Which still doesn't change the fact that the ones spent on these new romances could have been used elsewhere.
There are already too many romances and they actually went out of their way to add more.

In most cases, it wouldn't. The only character who explicitly states that she isn't into members of the same sex is Jack. Just about everyone else could be bisexual, for all we know.

Almost all squad mates can be dead at this point.

I think none of the returning characters will have any s/s romance because it would be easier to say that every romance-able character we've met in the series thus far has been straight (except Liara, conveniently) than it would be to say they had been deliberately excluding gay people--particularly gay males.

And it wasn't just that they didn't get to it; Kaidan had unused s/s romance dialogue in ME1.

UNCONFIRMED and implied from tweets and leaked scripts:

NO ME2-only LIs have "new" romances, but will be continued, similar to Liara in LotSB (no s/s).

Kaidan and Ashley can "make up" or start a new romance (s/s NOT confirmed).

Steve is gay and Samantha is a lesbian (believed to be s/s exclusive, NOT confirmed).

Diana the war correspondant is available for a fling. Confirmed bisexual by the actress.

Liara can continue AND start a romance.

Vega is definitely a LI for female Shepard, but MAY be "bi" as well. NOT confirmed.

Bioware has stated there will be NO Krogan love. Bastards.

Garrus can continue a romance. Nothing suggests a "new" or s/s romance.

The scripts SEEMS to suggest that Tali can continue AND start a romance in ME3. Not clear about "new" or s/s romance.
