The creators clearly intended for them to be separate, and I'm not really a fan of pushing clearly past the limitations they've set for us. It feels like an unnecessary complexity. I personally enjoy working within the constraints given to me.
Also, romance probably doesn't work the same way at all for miqo'te as it does for us as humans. Seekers, especially, are polygamous and monogamy seems to be unheard of. Just another lore-breaking item, taking away key things that make miqo'te who they are.
I think the thing to remember with these type of things is that no one will really know that our pair is together. Especially since their coupling will have made them both exiles. I don't intend to go around town hand holding and making kissy faces at his Keeper, because that (in my Seeker's eyes) would be, "...like spitting in everyone's face." We have never really roleplayed the types of characters who doted on public displays of affection even when we chose the same race/sub race in a game.
And "pushing past the limitations set for us" is often times some of the most fun roleplay I have had. Now I certainly don't want to bend the lore but I am curious, at what point would such intermingling happen? And after being exiled from their respective clans would the pair still be likely to receive such harassment outside of their homeland?
