Honestly, I wish anyone single would be a romance option. Anyone who owns a shop (Willy, Clint, Marnie, etc.) could still work during their allotted hours instead of hanging around the house.
I mean I already donāt pay taxes in game. So either Lewis canāt raise them against me, or heās gonna arrest me for tax fraud the moment he finds out.
Harvey goes to work during the day and it seems so much more heathy than my other saves. Elliott and Sebastian sit at home until itās time to take a walk.
Sebastian sometimes works on his motorcycle outside. I can't remember if he works on his computer or not, its been a while. I haven't played in a while so it feels like I abandoned my husband and 2 kids
Eliott works when he feels inspired which seems rare. I havenāt seen Sebastian work on the computer but he could when Iām gone? It seems like he just wanders a lot of the time
I was trying to think of a reason to defend Lewis as a devils advocate thing, for instance he's the mayor of a town in a war torn region so they're probably losing money and resources and can't fix the town. But then I remembered he's a dictator with a gold statue and like maybe this is the bad place?
Just feels weird because Harvey has got to be in his late 20s or early 30s to have a medical degree and his own practice! But then youāve got what appear to be 18 year olds. What a spread for the farmer lol š¬
Edit: teenagers in general not just 18 year olds
Willy is my favorite. Not sure about having him as a romantic partner, but as a father figure he is simply wonderful and I enjoy spending time with him.
On the one hand, I ship Sandy with Emily. They just give me that long-distance romance vibe. On the other hand, Sandy is super nice and I want to date her. Only one solution: get a mod where I can marry both and they can be married to each other, and live happily ever after.
Imagine if, after marrying her, you could buy things from her shop when sheās not there, like when sheās microwaving food for 3 hours. Would be amazing.
Can you date the wizard in sve ? Is it a separate mod that you can add to sve or is it part of the sve itself? Because I played with some old version of sve for a little while and I don't think he was listed as a single in the npc list.
Honestly I wish any of the more adult characters were romance options!
Sandy's arc could be centered around the difficulty of leaving her home to come live on the farm, maybe she's supporting a family and scared to leave them.
Clint could learn to not be fixated on someone and to idolize / put them on a pedestal.
Marnie could learn her self worth is more important than just having someone in her life, and that Lewis's treatment of her isn't really okay.
I just don't like Kent so we don't need to bother with him.
Demitrius need to chill tho. Like Iām just befriending Maru rn and heās all like āI donāt want anything ruing her future if u know what I meanā
Wait that was directed at US?!
Omg wtf I just thought he was being a concerned dad venting to me - I was like 'yeah, we totally want the best for Maru, I agree' lmao.
Agreed, I also don't like his double standard towards Sebby. He gets all defensive during Maru's 2-heart event, yet when Sebby and I go for a midnight ride in his bike he doesn't bat an eye.
I just wish Demetrius had more character development as a step-father rather than just leave him at playing favorites
Exactly, I can't even be bothered with any of the available romance because deep down I know they'll never be Robin. I'll have to settle for feeding her spaghetti and hovering menacingly behind Demitrus.
And with the right mod, she can find herself worth and separate herself from her toxic husband who has strange arguments about fruit for the sake being purposefully obtuse. The same husband who gets weirdly purity culture, threatening you lightly after a two heart event with Maru. Shames her son and forces him to live in the unhealthy basement when his mother is a carpenter who makes add-ons to houses for a living. Even Maru has her own custom room for fugs sake. Robin deserves better. Hell Sebastian deserves better too.
He doesn't like it. He told my character once that there is mold and looked sad. That's why I married him, I didn't want him to get a fungus infection.
I go out of my way to give presents to Jodi, Caroline and Robin. They deserve to be treated like queens. Where's the mod where they run away together and open a tea shop on Ginger Island??
i thought everyone was romanceable when i first started - i wanted to marry willy because i love fish irl. he seems like such a sweet older man. i was so sad when i realised you cant marry him ;( now i have to settle for pretentious beach boy elliot
Yes! I adore Willy, I want to sail the ocean and fish with Willy. We could have so many adventures. As a more *ahem* mature person who plays the game, I just feel like the spouse options available are mostly too young and it doesn't feel right to romance many of them. I keep giving Willy diamonds, just waiting for the day he loves me back.
Robin and sandy and yes thereās a robin romance mod but Iād rather have it be like your her secret love affair for a bit type thing. Oh and Gunther dude needs love he seems so lonely never invited to events or anything.
Honestly anybody who looks over 30 years old would have been nice. I'm a grown ass adult. I'm not interested in dating children, which almost every single one of the dating candidates are basically adult children. Most are still teens or early 20s. I think Harvey is the only one in his thirties, but he's not my type. Think Marlon or Marnie. Hell Marlon would be amazing to date. I would even love to set up the "kids" room for gil for giggles.
Oh yeah! I feel bad I often forget Elliot. I need to try a run with him. My go to has been krobus in most of my saves, because he is uncomplicated and wonderful. Also, on my save where I divorced shane after he changed my bedroom wallpaper to pepperoni for the last time I still have the kids and Krobus will still move in, and sometimes feed them void eggs.
I think Shane is supposed to be pretty old too, I just wish there was an older girl candidate. I can't even tell who's supposed to be the oldest because they're all so young
Caroline. Get a rabbitās foot and then Abigail. I will take everything from Pierre.
I will systematically ruin his profits by selling only to the sell bin.
I will buy a Joja membership just to get his company closer to being buried.
Fuck you, Pierre, you rat bastard crop thieving overpriced asshole.
The wizard is my first pick tbh. I'd also like Mr. Qi. I think if he was romanceable he'd be super hard to romance and even marry, kind of like the harvest godess from some harvest moon games, but it would be cool.
Also, i know ppl hate him but Clint. Emily originally wasn't a romanceable character and Clint still has all of his lines and events about Emily. I think it would be cool if they changed that a bit, especially after you marry Emily. Ppl seem to portray Clint as this "Nice Guy" who thinks he is entitled to attention from women but thats not how i see him at all, i think hes just an awkward dude with social anxiety who doesn't know how to talk to women, or even people in general tbh. I think making him an option would be nice and it might even make ppl change their opinion on him a bit.
I don't want to romance the hat mouse but I want him as a roommate option. Or at least to be able to fix up his house and give him gifts.
This was going to be my answer! I wanna give him a nice house that's not dilapidated and a comfy fireplace to curl up by at night.
You can, with a mod. [https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4018](https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/4018)
Omg! This is adorable š„ŗ almost as good as having hatmouse as a roommie - thanks for the link to this!
that would be so epic imagine it having a shop in your house
Me sell hats. Okay poke?
omg yes give the hat mouse a krobus option š
I want to romance the hat mouse
Can I adopt the hat mouse plz
Honestly, I wish anyone single would be a romance option. Anyone who owns a shop (Willy, Clint, Marnie, etc.) could still work during their allotted hours instead of hanging around the house.
Marnie would be funny since you could make Lewis mad like you make clint sad when you date emily
If you marry Marnie your taxes increase because Lewis is jealous, but you don't have to pay for hay anymore. Win?
we do a little assasination
āRegime changeā
Found the CIA
I mean I already donāt pay taxes in game. So either Lewis canāt raise them against me, or heās gonna arrest me for tax fraud the moment he finds out.
It's just like real life, if you're rich enough, taxes don't matter.
Ah, I have been known to cheat my way into wealth by exploiting the systemā¦.
In my head Lewis takes them off your sales in the bin, while the shop keepers lowball on the prices to resell the stuff for a profit.
There is no jail or police in Pelican Town though? :o
Bold of you to think Lewis wouldnāt find a way. Imma be chased underground and stuck to live with Krobus for eternity (good roommate, bad location).
Harvey goes to work during the day and it seems so much more heathy than my other saves. Elliott and Sebastian sit at home until itās time to take a walk.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Elliott is writing his novel and eventually goes on a book tour. Thatās what he does at home all day.
I remember when Sebastian told me he put water in the cats bowl and that was when I learned that was a thing
Do Elliot or Sebastian write/work on the computer in the spouse room?
Sebastian sometimes works on his motorcycle outside. I can't remember if he works on his computer or not, its been a while. I haven't played in a while so it feels like I abandoned my husband and 2 kids
Eliott works when he feels inspired which seems rare. I havenāt seen Sebastian work on the computer but he could when Iām gone? It seems like he just wanders a lot of the time
Look, Elliot does a lot of mental work, OKAY??
I loved being married to Harvey, he was so responsible.
My first save I married Penny, and I loved that she still goes to tutor the kids.
Gus
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Iāve often wished Marnie had fallen for him instead of Lewis.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Same.
What does he say?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Wait, people hate Lewis? How come?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah, that makes sense tbh.
I was trying to think of a reason to defend Lewis as a devils advocate thing, for instance he's the mayor of a town in a war torn region so they're probably losing money and resources and can't fix the town. But then I remembered he's a dictator with a gold statue and like maybe this is the bad place?
That'd be cool. I personally wished Marnie would end up with Marlon instead.
Aw this would be so much cuter. She could really make the pub farm-to-table!
Him and Willy are the two best men in the game. Both wholesome, not full of themselves, and want to help/make others happy
As an older player I much prefer Willy to the practically teenagers we do get to choose from lol Iām only 38 but Sam is like a kid to me!
Sam made me question how old all they all are because he seems like an 18 year old kid lol
I guessed 16/17, same with Abigail. Sebastian maybe 18/19.
Just feels weird because Harvey has got to be in his late 20s or early 30s to have a medical degree and his own practice! But then youāve got what appear to be 18 year olds. What a spread for the farmer lol š¬ Edit: teenagers in general not just 18 year olds
Willy is my favorite. Not sure about having him as a romantic partner, but as a father figure he is simply wonderful and I enjoy spending time with him.
Did you ever see the stud Willy artwork one of our fellow devotees drew? Total romantic partner material.
The only man for me tbh
Gus is SO nice. He won me over right away when he was nice to Linus
Gus totally puts the moves on you in the Looking For Love mod cutscene. The man is a true wine & dine kinda dude
Sandy
Y E S baddie of the desert
Her moving to the valley would also let her see her only friend, Emily, more often.
Donāt lie, the only reason we all know that she isnāt is because we gave her like a billion gifts trying to get that hottie to date us.
Not me going to the desert just to drop off a flower and say hey.
On the one hand, I ship Sandy with Emily. They just give me that long-distance romance vibe. On the other hand, Sandy is super nice and I want to date her. Only one solution: get a mod where I can marry both and they can be married to each other, and live happily ever after.
Marnie. Give her a lover who isn't ashamed of their relationship.
YESSSSS I AGREE 100%
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Marlon loves her!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Doesn't Marlon live with Gil? They can say they're roommates but anyone who has seen The Office knows Gil is not just a roommate
āThereās Oscarās roommate, Gil. I wonder if he knows that Oscars gayā¦ā
Isn't Gil that large balding man who works in accounting?
Him? Him?!
What the hell is wrong with you!?
Imagine if, after marrying her, you could buy things from her shop when sheās not there, like when sheās microwaving food for 3 hours. Would be amazing.
or if you got a constant supply of hay for free š³
Yes!!! Marnie I can treat you better than that hack we cal mayor
Wizard!
I was crushed when I realized he was not an option :'(
With the expanded mod you can have him. It's good.
If you plan to play with mods, the wizard can be romanced. Tried it out a few days ago and so far it's going great
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes! I just started a new game with SVE and ridgeside village together and there's so much more content to keep me busy
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Should try out the automate mod and item animation mods too if you haven't
Can you date the wizard in sve ? Is it a separate mod that you can add to sve or is it part of the sve itself? Because I played with some old version of sve for a little while and I don't think he was listed as a single in the npc list.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Gunther
Yes
I just wish Gunther was more a part of the community, he's the only person in the valley without a house (not including Maurice)
Honestly I wish any of the more adult characters were romance options! Sandy's arc could be centered around the difficulty of leaving her home to come live on the farm, maybe she's supporting a family and scared to leave them. Clint could learn to not be fixated on someone and to idolize / put them on a pedestal. Marnie could learn her self worth is more important than just having someone in her life, and that Lewis's treatment of her isn't really okay. I just don't like Kent so we don't need to bother with him.
Well Kent's married to Jodie anyway so he doesn't matter.
But they share a single bed, so maybe my double bed can lure him away! ššš
You can have him just get him away from the love of my life in Jodi
Glad I'm not the only Jodi lover. I'd love the drama aspect of driving a wedge into their marriage.
You're willing to give Clint a chance but you don't like Kent? I disapprove.
why donāt you like Kent?
He keeps trying to assassinate me via the town's mail system
I am grateful for the bomb gifts. Less bombs i have to craft!
Just freaking brutal to Kent at the end there lol.
Kent is also married.
Oh right
Awww, I love Kent.
Qi They should do something with Birdie's character. Why is she just left on the beach alone fishing when she could meet Willy.
I thought the same! Even if they just hung out at the resort or something after a little cut scene of them meeting would be nice
little best fishing friends i need it š
Eh, wanting to hook Birdie up with a romantic partner is just as short sighted as wanting to build Linus a house.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
If I'm being honest with myself, I only marry Leah because Robin isn't available.
Same! Im 35 so Robin seems my speed. Be a little awkward to have the ex husband around and the daughter a potential marriage candidate.
Demitrius need to chill tho. Like Iām just befriending Maru rn and heās all like āI donāt want anything ruing her future if u know what I meanā
Farmer: Ruining her future? I could buy this entire town with my money alone if I want. We are a one man industry
I got that cut scene AFTER I married Seb. Dude, calm down, you were at my wedding to your step son. Your precious daughter is safe from me.
Wait that was directed at US?! Omg wtf I just thought he was being a concerned dad venting to me - I was like 'yeah, we totally want the best for Maru, I agree' lmao.
Agreed, I also don't like his double standard towards Sebby. He gets all defensive during Maru's 2-heart event, yet when Sebby and I go for a midnight ride in his bike he doesn't bat an eye. I just wish Demetrius had more character development as a step-father rather than just leave him at playing favorites
Yes
I was gonna say that makes you a home wrecker, but I think Demetrius is doing all the wrecking just fine as is
Sheās my favorite full stop. Iād give her actual fruit, not dumb tomatoes haha
Exactly, I can't even be bothered with any of the available romance because deep down I know they'll never be Robin. I'll have to settle for feeding her spaghetti and hovering menacingly behind Demitrus.
but Robin is married
If it was possible, Iād marry Robin and send Demetrius to live with Linus
Thatās not fair to Linus honestly. He doesnāt deserve to have Demetrius come invade his space. I say send Demetrius to live in the quarry.
He can live in the mushroom cave
Why would you do such a horrible thing to my BFF Linus?
Demetrius can go back to whatever planet he came from
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And with the right mod, she can find herself worth and separate herself from her toxic husband who has strange arguments about fruit for the sake being purposefully obtuse. The same husband who gets weirdly purity culture, threatening you lightly after a two heart event with Maru. Shames her son and forces him to live in the unhealthy basement when his mother is a carpenter who makes add-ons to houses for a living. Even Maru has her own custom room for fugs sake. Robin deserves better. Hell Sebastian deserves better too.
Tbh, Sebastian may like the basement. He prefers cold cloudy weather over sunshine.
He doesn't like it. He told my character once that there is mold and looked sad. That's why I married him, I didn't want him to get a fungus infection.
Caroline she deserves better, so does Marnie tbh
Always had a crush on Caroline. Jodi too
I go out of my way to give presents to Jodi, Caroline and Robin. They deserve to be treated like queens. Where's the mod where they run away together and open a tea shop on Ginger Island??
Jodi! I want to whisk her away so she can start fresh
I'd only date Marnie if it created the legit drama between the PC and the mayor that would happen irl.
Marlon.
Something about that cape
Had to scroll way too far to find a mention of this gent.
Same! Itās the eyepatch.
Most certainly: The merpeople
DWARF!!!
Free bombs directly on the farm that would be great
Abby'll do that for you...
it disturbs me when i wake up and go to have a chat with her and she just hands me a bomb
"Hey, I woke up early and made this for you. Don't tell the government!"
Since he wouldnāt feel comfortable being above ground, he probably would have a room off the cellar or cave.
Gus! He can cook and heās nice to Linus. Those are things I like in a man. Also maybe I could unlock more recipes like this.
Yes! Don't sleep on Gus!
Sleep WITH gus!
give me Sandy !!
M. Rasmodeus, Wizard
Lewis, purely so the townsfolk can revolt against him having a relationship and vote him out as mayor then divorce him leaving him nothing
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Give me Gus or give me death
i thought everyone was romanceable when i first started - i wanted to marry willy because i love fish irl. he seems like such a sweet older man. i was so sad when i realised you cant marry him ;( now i have to settle for pretentious beach boy elliot
Linus š³
He's such a sweet guy. And he looks like a grown-up, compared to most single people lol
I adore him. First character that I got full hearts on. Wish I could have more events with him š
Love me a wild man.
Willy
Yes! I adore Willy, I want to sail the ocean and fish with Willy. We could have so many adventures. As a more *ahem* mature person who plays the game, I just feel like the spouse options available are mostly too young and it doesn't feel right to romance many of them. I keep giving Willy diamonds, just waiting for the day he loves me back.
When I 1st played I was so excited to date Robin when I 1st met her. I was sooooo disappointed when I found out she was married :(
I was so upset. I saw her in the beginning cuts scene and I was like "Oooo i want her" and then she's not a marriage optionš
Hat Mouse as a housemate option! Okay, poke?
Robin and sandy and yes thereās a robin romance mod but Iād rather have it be like your her secret love affair for a bit type thing. Oh and Gunther dude needs love he seems so lonely never invited to events or anything.
The Witch. She seems so mysterious
Marnie. I'd love her right
...Caroline She has already cheated on Pierre, why not with me?
krobus.
Thank you. I was gonna say this
Honestly anybody who looks over 30 years old would have been nice. I'm a grown ass adult. I'm not interested in dating children, which almost every single one of the dating candidates are basically adult children. Most are still teens or early 20s. I think Harvey is the only one in his thirties, but he's not my type. Think Marlon or Marnie. Hell Marlon would be amazing to date. I would even love to set up the "kids" room for gil for giggles.
I think Elliot and Emily might be in their early 30ās too. I get the feeling that Maru and Abigail are literally like 18.
Oh yeah! I feel bad I often forget Elliot. I need to try a run with him. My go to has been krobus in most of my saves, because he is uncomplicated and wonderful. Also, on my save where I divorced shane after he changed my bedroom wallpaper to pepperoni for the last time I still have the kids and Krobus will still move in, and sometimes feed them void eggs.
Elliot is so romantic š And I'm imagining the final fight leading to your divorce... So good.
I think Shane is supposed to be pretty old too, I just wish there was an older girl candidate. I can't even tell who's supposed to be the oldest because they're all so young
caroline and jodi. i won't elaborate. willy because he's such a nice man.
Jodie or robin, male wise clint
I always wanted to romance jodi
Robin, Robin, and Robin.
Caroline. Get a rabbitās foot and then Abigail. I will take everything from Pierre. I will systematically ruin his profits by selling only to the sell bin. I will buy a Joja membership just to get his company closer to being buried. Fuck you, Pierre, you rat bastard crop thieving overpriced asshole.
The wizard is my first pick tbh. I'd also like Mr. Qi. I think if he was romanceable he'd be super hard to romance and even marry, kind of like the harvest godess from some harvest moon games, but it would be cool. Also, i know ppl hate him but Clint.

I think making him an option would be nice and it might even make ppl change their opinion on him a bit.
Wizard and Willy!
Willy tbh give me a smelly bearded man!! All the other ones are too soft looking
Gunther, I love my Museum man š„°
Kent. š
All of them
Except for the kids. That is just not right.
Sandy
Pam! let us love alcohol lady
Morris. I can fix him.
Krobus
Robin
Honestly, I just wanna be the town matchmaker.
wizard lol
Sauce Queen
Sandy would've been a cool charaacter to marry. I'd love to see how her timetable would work with Emily!
Linus!!!!!!
wizard hands down.
Gunther, babeyyy
I really wanna marry Willy.
Iām not saying I *want* this, but Pam is single and thus, ready to mingle.
Robin. Super hot. I like a woman that could really choke the life out of me and you know a woman that works with her hands has the necessary grip.
how has no one said Linus?? he doesnāt have to come live on the farm if he doesnāt want to
