I don't hate them, as someone who's wholly uninterested in romantic relationships herself. But I do find women who *only* exist as the love interest uninteresting and hard to relate to. I just stare at them and wonder how it's possible the only interesting thing they apparently do is act as an emotional prop for their man. Don't they have their own arc? Their own dreams, pitfalls, problems? Some aspect of their life that's not stapled to their man? Why on Earth should I give two shakes about them if they're just a breathing accessory?

Which is a long way of saying, I don't expect a lot of people feel this way, but I get where OP is coming from.
