No strings attached, just use me like you own me" kind of thing. I know that will be shocking for some people, especially the "but you're only playing a female character so you can watch her butt pixels" crowd, but those kinds of things actually happen out here in the real world.

I'd still prefer clearly defined sexuality, but as for a deep emotional bond? In this instance, it wouldn't matter all that much. Save it for the late game, like most other games with romances do. I mean, there is one notable exception, Morrigan from Dragon Age Origins, you can have her sex scene the first night in camp. I've actually done it. I didn't know it was going to happen when I did it, it just flowed organically from the dialog we'd been having. What's even better is that the line that triggers the scene "It's cold in my tent all alone" can be met with "get an extra blanket"...

I realise that people do have one night stands in real life, but I personally dont want real life from Baldur's gate I want high fantasy, and our interactions to feel meaningful , the world is full of instant gratification ( and thats ok for a evil root in bg3)

but as a player , I think we deserve music like this

and Depth and emotion to our characters, some could be one night stands like lazel.
but why is bg3 not tapping in to the npc reactions that bg2 has, whats the point of taking the baldur's gate name
if they dont want to capture any of the same feeling the original games tried to portray?
I personally think they should try recapture what bg2 tried to do.

Perhaps you should read the post you quoted again?
nah im good thanks. your happy for no deep bond , save it for later romance can come later, i personally think thats rushing, check out my first sentence "I realise that people do have one night stands in real life, but I personally dont want real life from Baldur's gate I want high fantasy"

hopefully this clears things up for you
