Interesting and shows how different we players are. I prefer romance, sharing and swinging. Which is one reason I hope for a mushy HOT romance with wild Holly now.Ian/Lena and cheating on her with Cindy or Alison. Maybe later with Louise.
Ian/Holly and cheating on her with Alison.
Ian/Louise hopefully develops if they get played by Lena/Jeremy.
Ian/Alison got stale, so unless Alison homewrecks Ians other relationships, its limp Ian demanding threesomes with Alison and Jeremy (potential black baby).
Ian/Cindy, bonus with Lena/Axel
Ian/Lena faithful, but Lena doesn't allow him to fuck her vaginally. No cucking with other man!
Ian/Holly is the best mushy vanilla romance
Ian/Gillian potentially if either Ian is a chad and Gillian (droped by Mike in favor of Lena) crawls back or if Ian is a whimp and crawls back to her
Ian/Minerva has potential if Ian dates other women
With Lena, its mostly fucking around, stealing Mike from Gillian, stealing Jeremy from Louise, stealing Wade from Cindy.
Cuck Ian is a bit overhyped, especially if Lena is a total slut, but the spiciest it is with Axel and if she is romantically devoted to Ian.
Also Lena/Stan if we just consider the pay pet route. Not the romance.
Wild Holly and normal Ian could have a full "we belong together" romance with lots of potential how to spice it up! I think thematically this has more impact with a normal or shy Ian coupled up tightly with wild Holly. It could for example lead to both of them helping each other out of their shells.
As said before, due to Holly going wild for Ian to find her more desireable, I think that Holly´s wild streak will be finetunable by the player, what he likes and how far it goes.
Ian/Minerva also has some potential, if problematic to reach. Generally when it comes to romance, Ian´s best options are Alison, Holly and to a certain extend Lena (depends on how we play her part). These are the only girls who want Ian for "being Ian", for most of the others it is more about Ian being the first non-asshole boyfriend option (e.g. Cherry, Emma) or Ian being used for different reasons (e.g. Minerva, Cindy).
