Yes, I thought he had a girlfriend.
seems like a pretty cool guy in real life
Too bad it's not carrying over into some of his writing!

I get frustrated partly because I know he can do better! I really did like "Ethon" and "200"; I loved "The Road Not Taken," on SG-1. For SGA: "The Storm," "The Eye," "The Siege," "McKay and Mrs. Miller".... But then there's "Allies" and "No Man's Land," and "Sunday," which I'm having a hard time forgiving (still working on it).

the more I wonder if they like the idea of it, but they don't exactly feel it
Maybe that's why so many of us don't feel it! I love Rodney, I want to see him happy; I really do like Jennifer, and I can see them together. This wasn't that episode, however, so I'm shutting out some of the details.

You could be right, that either there's a decree from on high or, more likely, just a sense that a show that runs so long ought to produce a romance. You're absolutely right about romance in the background versus trying to put it in the foreground. (Marty G wrote Young People Fucking, which I have no particular desire to see given his track record with anything romantic! I am curious about it, though.)

Snuggling. That's what anyone who just nearly died would want, especially after her boyfriend decided she needed CPR and probably left her with a bruise the size of her head on her sternum. Said boyfriend doubtless needs it too, although he is, as his previous girlfriend noted, a little "prickly." ;-)
