Alistair and Leliana are a breeze

That's actually one of the things I don't like about the romances in Dragon Age. They're too easy.
PC: You're prettier than most Chantry sisters I've ever seen, Leliana.
Leliana: OMG, I love you too!
PC: Uh.... what?
PC: That was an. . . interesting story, Morrigan. If I were a mage, I'd probably feel the same way about the Chantry and the Templar.
Morrigan: Let's go to bed together!
PC: Um, no? I don't even know you. We just met like 2 minutes ago.

Yeah, Morrigan is very abrupt and so is Zevran.
Leliana and Alistair are easy to get started and then they sort of pace themselves.

To be honest, getting Zevran to bed you, doesn't mean you are seriously romancing him, it just means that he has determined that you are vaguely humanoid...

It's true!
With Zevran I got the achievement...uh..without really knowing what was going on.
I was just being nice...

I still think the post from this guy who had mistaken what Zevran meant when he suggested massage and had his eyes pop, when he got the cutscene is among the most hilarious things I've read on this forum.

Me: Threesome?
Alistair: Wow. What? Wow.
Me: Threesome!
Alistair: I don't think 'no' is a strong enough word.
Me: But you loved it last time!
Alistair: Have you been at the lyrium again?
Me: Maybe. Why?
Alistair: Um. You do know you're not a mage, right?
Me: OH! Am I an elf today? Do I look like an elf?
Alistair: Is this a trick question?
Me: Trust me, when I'm a human mage, you think this is a great idea.
Alistair: ...
Alistair: That's it. I'm hiding the lyrium stash.
It's hard to not take it personally when he doesn't remember me. But he just won't have sex up against the pillars in Ostagar and I think that's a missed opportunity.
*deep sigh*

I really agree.
Also, this is what I get for playing multiple games at once.

To be fair, the Morrigan romance isn't complete until she STOPS sleeping with you.

Yes, that's true. My point is that it seems far too easy to get the romanceable party members to like you. You can have both Leliana and Morrigan up to Adore literally seconds after they join your party if you know which dialogue options to choose and spam esc while they're talking. Well, you'll need a couple of gifts for Lel too, but still....
Compare that to, say BG2, which had two separate timers for romance dialogue. Without cheating, it would take the entire game for a BG2 romance to come to fuition. You really had to be patient and work at it. Bioware seems to have disgarded that model in favor of more immediate gratification.
Somehow I just feel that getting a girlfriend in a game should be easier than getting a girlfriend irl.

It's funny, in reality I always know almost immediately upon meeting someone and talking to them, whether or not I would consider that person in a romantic sense.
I'm definitely at least a "potential love at first talk" person. If I don't get that spark, there's no way giving it time will make me feel all that different about it.
And it's not about sight.

I agree. You know the first date if this is someone you are interested in or not. Those month's it takes in real life is just because you don't get the same feedback you get in the game. All the times I wish the girl had had a little sign saying xxxx approve +2 or a card where you could she if she was at interested, neutral or just warm.´would certainly have sped up things considerably...
/Edit... That is really a bit of a peeve of mine. I think the game gives way too much feedback on the romances. It
should be possible to have situations where you think she doesn't like you, but in reality she does.

Well, since I'm usually only hanging out with someone I'd have fun with either way, sex or talking or movies or games or whatever...
Not a problem.
I don't understand why someone would hang out with someone whose company they can't stand in the meantime, waiting for sex to happen.

I actually didn't mean sex. I was thinking more about the the time between the first time you met someone and the first date, if you see what I mean.

I guess I'm not a traditional dater in any way.
In my case it has mostly involved meeting someone online and becoming friends and phone buddes before someone grabs an airline ticket or something of that sort.

Fair I guess. I think I spent too much time in my youth trying to analyze conversations with girls I happen to meet at school/parties/work and too little time actually asking them. I have heard afterwards that I probably missed a lot of opportunities because girls didn't even think I was interested in them, because I couldn't work up the nerve to flirt, even though I usually talk a lot.

You're not alone. I've seen lots of people that are the same way. Especially folks focusing on the words and not all the body language that goes with it.
Even online I've seen guys being clearly STALKED by women, and the guys are entirely clueless about it.
Xandurpein wrote...
That is a probably a part of it. On the whole I think I have a very "expressive" body language. So whenever someone has a more muted body language I just don't pick it up. And then people simply don't expect someone who talks a lot to be shy.
