People can change, I don't know. There's that idle dialogue (with Astarion and/or Wyll) where she basically states that she prefers flings to commited relationships, but maybe she just hasn't met the right person yet. I think there are other similar parts too, but I can't quite recall them right now. As I said, I haven't done her romance subplot, and this is just how she seems to me as just a companion. Maybe it's a facade. Or that Shar thing.

Anyway, I haven't seen that ending, but if that's correct, there's little point getting upset about the person she is/was rather than appreciating the person she becomes, if that's someone's thing.
She says that very early and it explained why she "prefers" that(because Shar forbids shit, she has no choice). She is not like that in her selune path, everything about her selune path romance suggests love and commitment. I guess DJ Shadowheart breaks up with you no matter what on Shar's demand. It's is reflected in her epilogue pretty well.

I don't really know the details, as I dislike romances in RPGs and don't really pursue them, but from the little I gathered, Shadowheart is very open about sexuality in general, so trying to form her into your personal ideal was doomed from the start.

I guess that whole Shar subplot complicates matters, but that stuff is simply whack anyway. And I hate it because it's just interesting enough to make me really annoyed at some of the stupid narrative choices.

Poor argument, why not just let talk about this in the game? Why if you ask to do poly with Wyll/Gale etc. they just do not accept. Why not make it reverse for her if that is the case?(Hell let her break up on you if she is not fine with being not open/poly)
