Thane. I went through the full gambit of emotions with him. Exasperation during his RM, curiosity on the Normandy, sadness and anger at and for him during his LM, horror, anger and sadness when I heard of his wife's death, compassion, friendship, and finally my Shep fell in love with him at the end.

I hated Kaidan. Almost liked him in ME1, and my Sheps romanced him. But after Horizon? What kind of man would abandon a woman, call her a traitor, and then try to get back with her after she's moved on and is mourning her lover's passing? Mmm? That is EXACTLY the kind of man we women avoid IRL. Bad, bad writing in ME3 all round, but Kaidan. He had gone from a whiny, insecure biotic to a whiny, insecure, possessive **** biotic imo.

I liked Jack, she seemed to grow quite a lot through ME2 and 3.

And I liked Liara in ME2, she had grown from being barely out of childhood to a kick ass woman who could hold her own against anything, and she was AWESOME. Shame she went backwards in ME3, and has turned into a child again. :S

I'd say Tali grew on me. I thought she was a nerdy, annoying teenager in ME1, but she grew on me in ME2. She was the LI I pursued and I thought her romance with Shepard was very well done overall. On a second play through I romanced Miranda instead and liked her just as much. Her death scene in ME3 after romancing her I thought was one of the most moving scenes in the series. I'd say Miranda similarly grew on me in that I wasn't as taken in by her as I was Tali, but on reflection and a subsequent play through I can appreciate her a lot more as a LI.

He is still not one of my favorites but Garrus in ME3. This guy annoyed the hell out of me on my maleshep so I just ignored him or in extreme cases killed him off...But I wanted to try something different so I finally rolled a femshep and romanced Garrus with the intention to see if he would grow on me. To my suprise he did, I very much enjoy him more as an LI then a "bro".

Jack grew on me, I went for Miranda in my first playthrough of ME2, but somehow, I ended up trigging Jack's romance scene by going up to my cabin after I beat the game and got blown away - I didn't hear any of the Murdock speech or any of her real emotional tidbits, so I re-did my playthrough and ever since, she's been my only LI.

I didn't like any of them honestly.

I just romanced Ashley to get the achievement and actually skipped through all the dialogue and cut scenes. :/

Yeah, it was Kaidan. In ME1, his romance was just there. Y'know, right time, right place. I didn't have a problem with his romance, but since I played renegade, he was borderline "just a nice guy" in comparison. When I read that the VS would be sidelined in ME2 and that there would be six brand-new romances available, I was not thrilled with the idea of waiting another two years to experience romance content on my main Shepard. I decided that if any of the new LIs got my attention, then I'd probably pursue them instead. However, before that could happen, Horizon rolled around. I was just floored for a myraid of reasons: 1) the intensity of his anger -- he was mad because he really cared 2) wore his heart on his sleeve, saying he loved Shepard and 3) stood by his principles and refused to follow her down that rabbit hole. (I absolutely understood the VS position at Horizon and did not hold it against either of them. Shepard really was just as much to blame in that whole plot hammer.) That took balls to make a stand like that, which as a renegade I definitely respected. Right then and there, I knew that there would be no one else for Shepard. I felt his character showed a lot more growth in ME3. I was thrilled that he climbed the ranks on his own instead of riding Shepard's coattails. He showed initiative in clearing the air and continuing the romance. I just thought the whole thing was nicely executed.

Liara was my favorite. But then Tali became an LI and they have been forever tied since.

Ha! A Legion romance would be kind of hilarious. Considering all the geth programs it consists of, would it count as a polyamorous relationship?

Jacob did. I played as MShep first so he wasn't available to me and then I saw his "the priiiize" line on youtube and thought that was hilarious. Then I actually set out to romance everyone at elast once and when it was Jacob's turn I found his romance path to be the most beautiful thing in the game. I'd already romanced, Miranda, Ashley, Tali, Jack, Liara, and Kaidan at the timebut Jacob's was on a completely different, and higher, level of sweet, adorable,and just plain greatness. When I did the renegade line making fun of his smoothness attempt and he said "I love you" it just cemented him as the bet love interest in the series so fr for me.

Then came Mass Effect 3 where he was completely, and absolutely assasinated as a Character showing just how much Bioware did not teir their own work because of this very site and that they turned their backs on everyone who had ever taken Jacob's romance path and kept it when they imported their saves to ME3 and gave them the biggest middle finger in the history of gaming. Glad to know they thought Jacobmancers were the lowest of the low when it came to their fans.

I never understood why so many people dislike Kaidan. He's by far my favorite LI in this series. Many people say he's "boring". I'll admit he's an average guy for the most part, but I think that's what I like about him the most. He never pretended to be all high and mighty like some of the other male characters did. He was just himself and he spoke his mind. He has high morals and I think that's something to be valued and not mocked. Hence why he was so upset in ME2 when he finds out Shepard is working with Cerberus. He's upset because he cares. He's the average guy that women fall in love with everyday and in my opinion, one of the main reasons why he's so appealing to me. =)

Miranda.

When I first saw the trailers about the characters and voice actors, I was a bit skeptical. I think it was during that whole furore about the character designs for her and Subject Zero (as she was known then). And, I mean, I'd never seen Chuck, plus the line-reading they included in a video wasn't that great (and, thankfully, wasn't the take they used).

Then she shows up, shoots Wilson in the neck and cracks wise. It was love at first sight. :P

But, yeah, as the game progressed I think the character had a really good (if a little compressed) arc. There was a complexity to the character that I think was portrayed rather well. Especially since, like some other more controversial characters, you have to make a bit of effort to get past the prickly exterior.

For the romance, there was that underlying sexual tension you didn't really get with other characters, and I liked that she was more an independent person rather than a devout Shepard follower (not looking to criticise anyone's preferences, that's just my own). Additionally, I think Yvonne Strahovski did a fantastic job with the role, and I watched all of Chuck off the back of that...


This (minus the Chuck bits).

Plus, y'know, Miranda is just THAT goddamned awesome.

Liara really caught my eye, i felt like i connected with her instantly and my imagination spun away elevating the relationship to a whole new dimension. I tend to slip into things and let myself be devoured by it. My relationship to this blue wonder became obsessive for about 6 months and at that time nothing else really mattered..

Although imo all the characters are well made and have something appealing to them if you respect them in their element. Among the favorites: Mordin, Bro Garrus, Wrex, Thane and Samara.
Tali was the one apart from Liara that could really treat my emotional dedication and respond in a mutual way.

MIranda. Mosty because of her voice. She sounds so broken in ME3. Until after you save Oriana. In the end conversation, when you can feel her resolve. In ME2 she changed from Cerberus **** into something more human. And in ME3, I just wanted to hug her and tell her "It's alright" in the same way as in LotSB with Liara. M.

Always been a big fan of Ashley and Liara. I wasn't too keen on Miranda at first but she grew on me to become #3 on my mental list of top ME romances, after the two mentioned previously.

Morinth, after I saw ME3's endings, i realized that letting her microwave my brains at the end of ME2 was a much better way to end my Shepard's story,

Of course! Morinth obviously traveled into the future, saw the coming doom, and wanted to make sure Shepard at least died a pleasurable death. It all makes sense now...Morinth is ME2's version of Marauder Shields.

Liara grew on me. She was far too fanservicey at first glance in ME1. Typical sci-fi sexy alien species, bisexual (from the human perspective), shy, bookwormish and virginal. Everything a basement dwelling adolescent boy would want. Yawn. Ashley was far more interesting and a better-developed character.

I warmed up to Liara after playing LotSB. I went back and started a Shep with a Liara relationship, and LotSB was even better. She's much more interesting in LotSB and ME3. She's not my favorite, but she did grow on me.

(Jack became my favorite the instant she opened her mouth. "Sh*t, you sound like a p*ssy". I lol'd, I swooned).

Garrus.

When my boyfriend informed me he was a love interest in ME2, I did a literal spit-take. My boyfriend always buys the strategy guides and checks these things, and we'd both been internet free prior to the release of 2. I believe my actual reaction was "What the hell? HOW? Dear god, why?!" I've always liked Garrus, though I wasn't THAT taken with him in 1 (The rules are your friends, GAAAARRUS). But I never figured him for a romance option, and figured that'd be an unholy mess.

And so I ran my Kaidan-mancing paragon favorite Shepard through. I was sorely tempted by Thane. (Second run-through, she did not resist. At all. Thane. GIMME.)

Then I ran my backup Shepard, a rough-around-the-edges forever-alone Shep as my third run-through. And went Garrus.

....Yeah, Garrus all the way. Now my favorite romance across the trilogy. No other romance comes CLOSE in pacing and cuteness. In my opinion.
