    I don't know if this question has been asked before...since SW always has a romance, it is inevitable that two characters will get romantically involved.

    As Rey is the protagonist, there is a good chance she is the one who will have the romance. Keeping that in mind, who would you like to see Rey get romantically involved with?

    I don't think Rey has time for that yet. Galaxy to save, destiny in the jedi order to build.

    That's a fair assumption.... being a hero and having a love life didn't work out too well for Anakin in the PT.

    What's been presented is a character that had no romantic chemistry. I'll give that we haven't seen Rey and Poe together, but The Last Jedi doesn't look as though it will have time for that. It looks like, as far as I can tell, Rey's relationships will be familial formed, as they were with Luke Skywalker, who also ended a trilogy without resolving a romantic relationship.

    Rey's devotion and core relationship will more than likely be with Luke Skywalker, whether or not he is Rey's father.

    i voted for Kylo/Ben just to be that guy :p

    honestly though, i don't give a hoot if she has a love story. in fact, i'd almost prefer she didn't... (epic fail)

    Yeah I know he couldn't have one or the other, Rey's youthful part of her life would be spent on her own, I now that sounds cold but a love interest for her will be her weakness.

    While I generally agree with Grand Master, I can see her having a love interest, because 'Jedi are forbidden attachments' got old even during the prequel trilogy.

    While there wasn't anything on screen (they haven't even talked to each other in the movie, just stood next to each other in the map scene), in the novelization Rey had a moment with Poe. If Daisy and Oscar have on screen chemistry, I'd be fine with that.

    I'd be fine with Fin also - because it is possible that love is born from friendship. And if that kiss on the forehead is mentioned as 'friend zoning' (stupid term), I give you exhibit A:

    But, I mainly agree that she has more important stuff to think about than boys (or girls).

    If it has to be anyone, I'd say Finn, with Kylo as a second guess.

    But, at this current time in the series, I don't think she needs a love interest, just as I don't think she needs to have "famous" parents.

    Poe, Finn, Kylo and the character played by Kelly Marie Tran. They should form a love pentagon. :p It can also be easily expanded by different characters to include all the onoging shippings in the Sequel Trilogy.

    I'd be fine if Rey doesn't end up in a romantic relationship but if I'd have to pick anyone, it would probably be Poe. Why? These two would be hawt! :D Besides, they're both into flying, so that's nice.

    We see them one next to the other when they went back from Starkiller when R2 puts the map on.

    I hope she doesn't, not because attachments or Jedi rules, but because she's busy saving the galaxy, saving the Skywalker name and being our new Hero.

    Basicly, Luke Skywalker Mark II

    I would consider Finn the brother she never had, if he remembers that kiss & puts her on the spot about it, that would awkward.

    She's a Jedi... unless she turns to the dark side then all the Reylo theories might come to pass.

    "I loved the developing romance between your character, Finn and Rey in “The Force Awakens.” How is that romance evolving in the next chapter?

    Boyega: I mean, we didn’t establish a romance in seven; we never played it that way. Daisy and I, we’re friends.

    So there’s no romance?

    Boyega: Yes, Finn and Rey – they’re just friends. Finn is a storm trooper, so he doesn’t really know what’s going on. So the romance thing is something that’s going to be interesting in the next installment. It’s not going to go the way you think it’s going to go."

    http://variety.com/2016/film/news/star-wars-episode-viii-darker-bigger-john-boyega-1201774027/

    A romance between Finn and the character of Kelly Marie Tran?

    They're together in this photo of Dubrovnik:
    [​IMG]

    and together again in the Disney Shareholders footage:

    "Finn dressed as a First Order Officer on the bridge of a First Order ship. Actress Kelly Marie Tran was standing to Finn’s left, also dressed in a First Order uniform."

    I've voted for the 'no-one' option, but not for the 'forbidden' reason more from a why does she need to have one POV?

    Rey seems like a perfectly capable and skilled woman... needing a love interest is just a contrivance.

    Where's the Chewbacca option?

    Daisy and Joonas have great chemistry.

    Captain and First "Mate" indeed.
