Romance would be fun, but I hope that it doesn't pan out like almost every anime romance ever, where the guy gets all protective of the girl and becomes a damsel, waiting to be saved by her man or whatever. That's why I love JaunexPyrrha so much; Jaune doesn't try to be all macho and whatnot. He accepts that he needs Pyrrha to help him, and that she is better at fighting than him in every possible way. He's worked past all his testosterone-fueled bullshit and is now a more reasonable person (although Jaune probably doesn't have a lot of testosterone to begin with). Honestly, the only couples I like besides PyrrhaxJaune are members of team RWBY being paired with each other, like bumblebee or BlakexWeiss (my personal favorite pairing; it should have its own name!), and I'm not sure how likely it is that romances are going to develop within team RWBY. I also feel that a lot of character relationships in the series that could be romances will actually turn out to be just friendships, like RenxNora.

What if the villains had some steamy romance going on? Antagonists have feelings too, after all! This may be a little silly, but I'd love to see romance on the other side of the good/evil spectrum.
