my initial response from the origonal post is that the one guy is jealous. Could be jealous b/c he wanted the guy/girl in the relationship. Could be jealous that he is single and wishes he wasn't. Could be jealous that his characters never have anyone special, w/e.
It's not like they have even planned to be a couple (or any possibility of it unless the dwarf is a homosexual, possibly a pedophile, *and* interested in inter-species shenanigans with humans).
To be bothered by that seems too petty to have a reasonable explaination, and lots (although certainly not all) of unreasonable responses are seated in emotional responses to things. The most likely emotional response that could lead to the desire to see the couple totally ignoring eachother - jealousy.
EDIT: and yeah, it would be annoying if someone always played the same character concept every single game. I'd find it more annoying to have another player say "You can't play X because I say so" though, he should at least tell me, "I'd prefer it if you'd not play X because you always freaking play X, just play something different for once". But still, if X is all I want to play, then X is all I want to play /shrug.
