Arguments over pairing preferences have honestly been a big reason why I ended up leaving fandom in general. Because a lot of people either couldn't respect each other's opinions and feelings or just couldn't have mature debates regarding them.

That said, I'll be honest, that in the beginning I couldn't stand Relena. But, this was.. I have no idea how long ago. Back when it was aired on Cartoon Network? I was really turned off by her behavior and wished someone would grant her wish already. But, as I recently watched the series again, I grew to respect her, and now I adore her. I do adore the Heero/Relena pair too. My top pairing with Gundam Wing is Heero/Duo, but I'm also pretty fond of Heero and Relena as well.

I think it's horrible and unfair for fandom to make you feel like crap regarding pairings. And I'm sorry you've gone through that. :\ But on a positive note, thank you for sharing links and pictures! The one above is really pretty. ♥ Also, sorry for rambling quite a bit here~ ^^; I tend to talk too much sometimes, hehe.

Me too. I didn't even want to become more involved in the fandom after seeing all the Relena hate. Truthfully, she didn't give a first impression, but that was sort of the whole point. She was meant to grow and mature into a very capable woman. She's one of my favorite anime characters.

I need fic. :3
