She met him as a kid, so being with the Doctor now is more about childhood dreams coming true rather than straight-up romantic love.
This. Exactly! And that's what I've always liked about all of the companions. The idea of an intense loving and trusting relationship that doesn't actually have to equal romantic love or sex. (as much fun as that might be!)
Agreed. What I love about the Eleventh Doctor is that I feel he has the same joy in life that the 9th Doctor did - there is a real pleasure in exploring the universe.
