Well, I guess this helps me decide if I want to play the game. I really don’t enjoy games with “romance” plots for reasons I can’t explain. IRL I’m a romantic fool but I don’t like it in my games. Can anyone elaborate on the OP? Is it just nudity (I don’t care about nudity) or is it really focused on romantic side plots?

Not really, if characters start to like you, they will sort of ask you out (invite you to a dance etc.), you can decline and it’s over. If you accept you can get a bit of romantic bonus content, but you’re not missing out on anything essential.

It’s worth noting that the “decline” option is very often downright mean or abusive, so you get guilt tripped into sex.

This is exactly my issue. I like the party I like the characters but when I declined to get involved with someone they recoiled from me. Possibly this is somewhat realistic but I don’t belive it should be true of every character.

Plus I’ve known these people for a week. Fair enough you want to smash but don’t take it personally when I decline its not like we have a long established relationship.

I feel the same; it’s probably because the way these characters are written in a very “cishet” way just do not evoke my experiences with romance or sexuality at all.
