Nah, everyone should just share. That'd be copasetic.

Monogamy-only, with extremely subtle romance flags.

If they are with the player, and someone is hitting on said player, people should have confidence that the person they are with will choose the person they're with as opposed to the person hitting on them.

Rather than having companions fighting over the PC, can we fight with someone else over an LI just once?
^ This. And should the other person not give up let us kill them!.

I wouldn't mind XD
Though even better if we had to fight over LI with another companion.
Like there is that pretty elf girl and the Inq. likes her. But so does the mage/elf. So they fight in a duel (maybe even a magical duel). No matter who wins though, the elven girl goes with the man depending on her relationship with the Inq. and his previous choices. Like, even if won but months ago burned a village she'll dump you, no offense

Jealousy in RL is very irritating whereas in fantasy world it's very fun!
And yes I'd like having my LIs fighting over Quizzy. It's only natural. They want to keep their partner to themselves.

Fight to the death!
That way the winner wouldn't have to worry for his rival's return if he didn't get it from the first trouncing.

Can they reach a point in the "fight" where they both realize you're not worth the hassle?

I'll say what I've always said. Haer'dalis x Aerie x Charname dynamic from BG2.
Will satisfy both sides, wanting to fight over an LI and having a love triangle.
Don't hit me.

Does really no one here realize that OP was exaggerating?
Or plain trolling?
God, people, lighten up.

I am pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say that potential love interests should get jealous and fight over you, I was so disappointed when Alistair didn't show his affection for me by punching Zevran in the nose for hitting on his gal but Alistair didn't even challenge Zevran to one duel for my love, instead he was all like "you gotta choose between me and Zevran" and I was all like "whatevs, you can go be Archdemon chow you virgin".
Hopefully this problem is being rectified in Inquisition.
It should depend on the character.
Not all characters would be jealous and not all would react violently to jealously.

I think that the characters have enough self-respect to realize that if their partner (the protagonist) is messing around with other characters, then their partner doesn't really care about them and they would rather not waste their time on someone who chooses to cheat on them.

Leliana and Zevran didn't bicker. Merrill and Isabela didn't.Maiden Crowe wrote...

I don't find bickering very meaningful character development, thanks.
Really? I thought that was pretty much all they did in the party banter?
I think that the characters have enough self-esteem to realize that their partner (the protagonist) is not their personal property, and if their partner is having sex with other people that doesn't have anything to do with the amount of love or respect in the relationship.Chanda wrote...

How about each companion deals with it as appropriate for their personality? Ignore it, enjoy it, leave over it, murder the protagonist in their sleep over it. No need to establish a general routine for how love interests react to less monogamous protagonists.

The real problem in DA is that this is all typically done with an air of dishonesty. There isn't really a chance to have that sit down and let's have a poly relationship talk (although I will say that the Morrigan and MWarden talk comes close in DA:O).
That said, I've always thought that this was the deal between Hawke and Isabela.

Shocking as it may be for you, it is possible to have a non-monogamous relationship and be quite happy. It's just difficult because there can be lots of other feelings that get in the way - like competitiveness.

I don't see either Isabela or Zevran as monogamous types.
