I used to go through this. I used to love Future Trunks from DBZ and then Yami Yuugi from YGO. I've grown out of that now though...and I just love pairings from anime/games. :x
Instead of feeling romantic and stuff over characters, I just admire them now. Like, I love Kyon from the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, but not in that way--I just think he's hilarious and cool.
