I made this response in a thread about Blackwall and I thought I would share it here.
The thread to those who are interested - http://forum.bioware...ackwall-is-sex/
So Thom Rainier lies. You act like that is a big problem. Almost all the characters we have met in the Dragon Age franchise has some skeletons they want to keep in the closet.
In Origins, you have Morrigan who was really only after Urthemiel's soul and she did not tell you this until the very end and leaves if you decide to not acquiesce to her. You also have Leliana who is not very forthcoming about her past until a certain plot point in the story.
In 2, you have Isabela who essentially lies about why she was at Kirkwall until the Qunari war and she might not even be back after obtaining the Tome. Apart from her, who can forget Anders, who obfuscates about obtaining some exotic materials right up until he blows the Kirkwall Chantry.
In Inquisition, you have Bianca who mucked up bad time be leaking the location of Bartrand's Folly, you have Solas who messed up the world in a fundamental way and plans to do so again and you have Vivienne trying to get into your good graces for the sole purpose of acquiring power for herself.
Despite all this, there are many who romance Morrigan, Isabela, Anders and Solas. But Blacknier is bad because he lied and has decided to atone for it ? Bullfreakingshite.
Sure, be upset at him for a while but after a time, one should get over it. Besides, in my opinion, Blackwall is the best straight female love interest in the game. There are multiple reasons for this.
1) He actually looks manly and masculine unlike pretty boy Cullen. He does not need to style his hair to look good, all he needs to do is take his clothes off.
2) He is all about forgiveness, giving people second chances and is all around rather chill.
3) He is accepting of all women from all races, unlike Cullen and Solas.
4) He does not sleep around like Iron Bull. Far less chance to get an STD.
5) He does not assume to know the protagonist's sexual preference like Iron Bull does. Screw your Ben-Hassrath training Bull, my female Inquisitor does not like to be dominated.
6) He has the least amount of character BS. All you have to deal with when it comes to Blacknier is that he made a very bad decision once and that's it. He is not a recovering drug addict like Cullen or a soldier with PTSD like Iron Bull who is from an oppressive cult out for world dominance or a demigod who screws with reality with messy results like Solas. He is just a guy who made one awful decision and decides to atone for it.
