I generally have little interest in ERP, preferring the fade to black approach rather than anything else. But I do know plenty of friends from RPing in previous games that were open to actually playing out that part of their characters' relationships as well, and they were, quite frankly, some of the best writers with the strongest character concepts that I ran into. As has been said, for some people its just a natural evolution of their character and they were no more inclined to shy away from that than they would be from intense drama or antagonistic friction with other characters ICly if it made sense for their concept.
If its all someone does.. lets be honest, I still don't care. Its not for me, I would get bored pretty quickly, but I'll treat them as any other living denizen of the world if they make an effort to put themselves out there as such. Hell, even if they become overly flirtatious with my own characters I'm still cool with it so long as they're willing to deal with the IC reactions.
Just keep it IC, that's my battle cry.
