Pretty much this. I have one or two pairings that I love so much I don't like to see the characters with anyone else. I can't help it, it just happened.

But I don't shove my preference down other people's throats, and I definitely don't badmouth other pairings. Or act like a dick towards fans of them. Seriously, fuck all those people who feel the need to put down other pairings instead of just avoiding them. I just don't get the point at all.
