Description
Vector of a previous doodle I made of Sitch.8 reasons why the movie Lilo and Stitch rules:
1. Characters don't spontaneously bust out into musicals. The only songs sung by the characters were real life situations.
2. No princesses or princes, just aliens and Hawaiins.
3. Besides the aliens, the story is based on real problems people have. Sorry Disney princesses, finding your true love isn't THAT terrible compared to other problems people have.
4. No romance. I have this theory that if you have a steady story going into the right direction, adding in love just throws the whole thing off. The movie was about friendship and family, not finding true love.
That's why I also love Hayao Miyazaki films. The romance, in my opinion, is found in other aspects of his films, not portrayed by the characters themselves. The relationships between the main characters are more about friendship and innocence. I don't know if that's the intent of the director, but that's the way I see it.
5. Lilo is really different and funny.
6. There were awesome science-fiction concepts. I really like the design that the Grand Council Women had. The spaceships were awesome, too.
7. 2D animation ftw
8. Stitch is just plain adorable! He's also blue, and blue is my favorite color.

It sounds like you might have a little problem with this whole romance thing.
Its included in almost every story for a reason, everyone can and does have to deal with it, and unless you are a robot you are going to want some at some point in your life.
But it doesn't automatic turn everyone into a freaky obsessed "ZOMG HE ASKED WHAT TIME IT WAS!!1 WE ARE GOING TO GET MARRIED AND HAVE 500 BABIEZ!!!1! LOLOLOLOK"
Dealing with the subject will make your characters seem more human, lets take a look at Lilos Older Sister. She would like to be involved with that hunky dude who playing with fire. However she is currently dealing with the child security guys and finding a job and the weird freaky alien dog she got stuck with and her crazy little sister. So she recognizes that she is WAY to busy right now to throw in a relationship on top of it.
And thats why the writers don't really go anywhere with it however they did show the tension she had but they didn't throw it in your face.

I'm not romancephobic. I think I'm wording this the wrong way.
Okay, romance doesn't ruin a movie. I do like some stories with some romance in them, it just needs to be in the right conditions. However, I don't like it when attraction is thrown in in every new movie or book coming out. It's so cliche, you know? Usually when there is a boy and a girl involved, it almost always ends up with them falling in love with each other. It hurts my head.
I know Nani was dating David, but that wasn't the focus like you said. If it were Lilo and Stitch who fell in love, well, 1) beastiality, and 2) another gushy, goo-goo, kissy love story.
BUT when there's a series of a show on TV, and the writers add in a girl or boy and the whole thing takes a different turn, THAT'S what messes things up.

Oh you mean like in "I am Number Four" or "Final Fantasy X" Those didn't work because the Writer sucked and so the characters where Complete Morons. Chances are if writers can't write create good characters, they can't write a good romance either.
