Your character may not, but others do. There are quite a few people playing characters in relationships, and others who would like to be in one. I've seen at least one wiki template that include social ratings for friends, partners, and love interests. So yes, it is relevant.
Some people are going to ERP, and others prefer the fade-to-black approach. Either way, it's up to the players to decide what they're happy with.
