Good choice, Liara rocks. Plus the scene with her near the end of the game is just so touching... Even more so that the scene with my love intrest, Miranda.
I couldn't bring myself to cheat on her, plus as Femshep it was either her, Garrus (who I see as a friend), Kaiden (lolno), Jacob (who?) or Thane (I didn't like him).
Or Chobot of course. 😐
I think Liara is the 'canon' love interest, and I really loved her and Sheps scenes. They really did feel like a couple in the last game.
I liked Tali because I want to install Geth in a Quarian suit.
But I romanced Liara. Always with the blue sex. (I think I cheated but I stuck with her when it counted.) That was a cool plotpoint (that relationships are pretty durable) but I had forgotten my ME1 playthrough long before I started up ME2. So that wasn't much of a dilemma.

Yeah. Bioware really seemed to be pushing a Liara romance in ME3, which is surprising since they seemed to be pushing Ashley/Kaiden in the first game.
To be fair, the CE Edition of ME2 has a comic that shows Liara going after Shepard's remains. Even then it's obvious she has a total crush on Shep, and as she develops and becomes more mature (ME2, Lair of the Shadow Broker, ME3 etc.) she becomes perhaps the most reasonable romance option IMO. Tali was truly endearing, and probably second best. Ashley was kind of a *****. I didn't feel like the relationship had any development for her in ME3. Considering her and Kaiden have identical lines, I thought that was a huge problem.
Anybody here ever play in one of these:

Ashley has always been my favorite of the female romantic options. Out of all the women, she's the most down-to-earth, and her views would be similar to mine if I lived in the Mass Effect universe. Practicality is hot.
I haven't played ME3 yet, aside from the demo, but they totally ruined her look. She looks like Miranda, but worse.
