If she did, it would be a relationship based on the past episodes providing spaced out instances of their development. I am sorry, but the flashbacks were not enough justification.
However, if the same instances occurred only flipped (Lion-O for Tygra) the complete flip in judgement, priorities, and actions, would still seem rather un-becoming of her character. I would probably still be knocking her for choosing to surrender to "save" Lion-O versus keeping her and Tygra alive
As for the Tygra and Cheetara relationship, some people say "She was just being sisterly, or comforting. Lion-O shouldn't have read that much into it." I challenge them with this:
Take every instance of this love triangle and gender swap it. What if Cheetara, a man, was acting the way SHE did with a Girl Lion-O (the exact same, motion for motion, word for word) Not to make assumptions, but I think more people would come out in defense of Lion-O and condemning Man-tara. What do you think?
This is my opinion exactly. It's not the result, it's the writing.
And your gender double-standard is an interesting point. Had the roles been flipped, a man doing those things would have been immediately assumed to be romantic, where a girl can be 'sisterly.'
