That's not me, you know ;) I quoted someone and forgot to use italics.
But now I am wondering if I see things this way because I look at everything from a storyteller's pov. If the end goal of the story is supposed to be about a romantic pairing, whether happy or tragic, then that is the goal of the story. However, if the main theme of the story is about a character battling the good and darkness in himself (Luke Skywalker, for exmaple) then for him to suddenly end up in a romance at the end of the story doesn't make much sense. The end result should reflect what has been laid out before it.
