Same here. Well, I am interested in relationships, that's why I am so much of a shipper for different characters in all my favorite shows, but I just don't feel that relationships are being portrayed in any realistic way in any of the shows that are supposedly *about* relationships. Maybe because they center too much on them, giving the impression that there's nothing else going on in the world. People in Buffy have other problems besides who wants to sleep with who, and that makes it closer to my own experiences than any Melrose Place or Sex in the City.
