Yeah but possible and likely are not the same.

I accept that it is possible that Jesus was not involved in romance at all, I just see no compelling reason that he would deny it from his life.

I don't know much about Jesus so can't speak much about him. But in general terms, it is possible for people to avoid romance even though such people may be very rare (1 in 50,000 or even less). Such people may be inspired by other human values such as duty, love for humanity or feeling of helping others spiritually or in other ways.

It's not even that rare. Probably half the marriages today are arranged in some way and alleviates the need for romance or at least a great deal of it until after the wedding.

This could have been even higher in Jewish society of the 1st century.

The only women Jesus could get with are hookers and that's not terribly romantic either.
