Summary

Stardew Valley fans have shared the characters they can't help but love, with Leah being a favorite on the female side.
-
Harvey is also another very popular choice, loved for his nerdy charm, with Sam, Elliot and Shane also getting a few mentions.

And while there are plenty of romantic options, a surprising number of players wanted Robin to be a romantic option. Sorry guys, she's taken.
Stardew Valley has an interesting cast of characters that you will gradually get to know over the years tending your farm. Like all good farming simulators, there is also a group of would-be bachelors and bachelorettes with whom you can start a potential family, each with a unique personality and character traits.
As a result, some potential romance options will be more popular than others, and while the game has been out long enough for players to try out every kind of relationship that Stardew Valley has to offer, there are some characters that players can avoid running back to.
Stardew Valley fans share their favorite romance options
Reddit user Famous-Possible-7181 recently took to the Stardew Valley subreddit to ask everyone who their favorite romance options are, and while there's some love for everyone, there are a few names that come up more than most. For example, many users are very fond of Leah, like KingOfThePenguins, who like that she's artistic and outdoorsy, while also being a bit more mature than the other female romance options in town.

Fields Of Mistria is more than just another Stardew Valley clone
I'm already enthralled by this adorable, anime-inspired farming sim.
On the male side, Harvey is by far the most popular option for romance there, although Shane and Sam are also quite popular. However, it seems Harvey has enough nerdy rizz to make many swoon for him, with users like No-List-216 even admitting that his romance “ruined everyone else for me”. It's also implied that you pick up some less healthy stuff in a hot air balloon, which is just another point in his favor.
Oddly enough, there's also one character that players really like, even though you can't actually romance her. For some reason, quite a few people mention that they chose a different character after realizing that Robin was taken, like Reddit user Sawertynn, who admits that they usually go for Leah since Robin is already married. At least now we know that many Stardew Valley fans are secret domestic criminals.
Restore your grandfather's farm to its former glory in Stardew Valley, a charming indie simulation RPG developed by Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone. Along the way you'll meet new friends, romantic villagers and explore deep caves for the materials you need to craft, build and grow.
