Re: 45
I just think one of the reasons that he can't shut up about Rose, while we haven't heard him mention Romana at all is that Rose was pulled from him unexpectedly, before they ever actually acknowledged how they felt. Or before he did. And despite the fact that Ten was always reminding Rose that he was going to outlive her like woah, I think that the more childish part of his mind (childish? Ten? Never!) sort of felt like she would be around for ever, and took her presence for granted. The whole "well, I've got time" thing.
tl;dr=The Doctor's relationship with Rose got cut off in its height, when they were both in a heady, almost honey-moonish stage.
With Romana, it seemed more like a very adult relationship that had a chance to run its course. The romance, if there was any (I think so!), probably ended on their own terms, instead of being cut off in the middle, like Rose.
Which I think is the case for a lot of the companions. I mean some died and left on unexpected terms and all that, but I think with Rose he'd really got to the point of taking her always being at his side for granted. Ten sort of seemed like he regenerated into a bit of a ladies man...
Also, I think the Doctor knew that Martha felt the way she did about him (after awhile, anyway), and that was why he kept talking about Rose. You ever constantly talk about a boyfriend or an ex when someone you're just not interested in is interested in you. Sort of a "do not want" without having to actually say it.
