Can a romance continue if you kick the lover out temporarily?

    For instance, I'm playing a Berserker > Mage (well, I haven't dual classed yet), and I'd like to take advantage of all the XP when I do switch classes.

    Can I kick Anomen out of the party, memorize all my spells, and have the romance still be active when I ask him to rejoin moments later?

    TIA

    I think kicking a love interest out of the party pretty much kills it for good.

    Depends on the romance, actually.

    For example, you can't part ways with Jaheira without killing the romance (except when she leaves on her own during her sidequest). She actually hints at it by saying "things won't be the same" if she ever joins back.

    With the others, I think their romance will survive a removal from the party if you get them back within a few days (in-game). Three, I think, not sure on this one. At least with Viconia, this is the case.

    [​IMG] You can kick a romantic interest out for three in game days, after that it is set to 3 (finished). The exception, as stated above is Jaheira who can only leave voluntarily without breaking the relationship.

    That's quite interesting. I'd always assumed kicking your lover out was a dumpable offence, without ever bothering to test it (or check it in WeiDU). Props to 8.
