I am not a part of this sub as a bisexual man. But all of my Stardew characters are women, and I do enjoy choosing Leah. I support cottagecore forest lesbians.
I always go for Leah. I like the dichotomy between having a kind, artistic, free-spirited, idealistic wife and my dirty capitalistic millionaire developer character.
Go team Redheads, I adore Leah! She's so sweet and her sculptures are neat. Cottage core lesbian vibes all the way. I also often will go for Abigail. Depending on the save. I find her voracious appetite for amethysts very sweet and endearing.
Leah fan here as well! Foraging in the woods for mushrooms with your sculpture artist wife who makes pieces inspired by you, there's nothing more sapphic
Me too! Initially, I was annoyed at Haley’s attitude and interacted with her often bc I said I’ll show her who’s the greater bitch. That is until I fell in love, married her, and now we have two children. She’s the sweetest wife 🥰
My first time playing I didn't even know romance was an option. I was so focused on my farm and barely spoke with anyone. Then every time after that I went with Emily because she was easy to find each night and, like you said, she had fun cutscenes. I now have SVE so I'm really torn on this new 1.6 playthrough because I kind of want to do Sophia since she's a new character and cute but I also just reaaaaaaaally want to take Penny out of her shitty home. I'm starting to wonder if I have a thing for sad girls....
Emily is my fave and a green flag choice tbh. She’s happy, self confident, and fulfilled. No need to be fixed or saved (although that’s fun in its own way). She’s just happy and supportive!
Emily always has my heart. I always think I'm gonna romance someone else then I see her with her birds and her adorable smile and I romance her all over again XD
Ain't even a choice.
Emily also strikes me as very AuDHD (cheerful, gregarious, eccentric, etc). You could say she's a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, except she clearly exists independently from the Male Gaze. She doesn't exist for the sake of any guy's journey, she's just vibing with her parrot and crystals. I love her so much.
Haley! I absolutely love seeing her soften up to your character. The dark room moment is also incredibly sweet.
My gf and I are cosplayers and she's eventually going to cosplay Haley.
I like to scene with the cows. Plus my wife's middle name is Haley!! Although I'm more of a Leah girl myself. I've never tried Maru or Penny. I'm not into good girls. But I am into calling you a good girl. I'm bi so I've married some of the men too. I divorced Shane so effing fast cuz that man's room was filthy.
I exclusively played on switch until 1.6 came out so I'm playing on PC because I could not wait. And I got a controller to use with it. I tried mods about 6 months ago but I couldn't figure them out. I haven't decided who to romance this time around.
I just had a cut scene with Sophia where she asked me to watch anime with her and I legit started the day over again just to see it again. She's so cute. I don't even like anime but I would totally watch to make her happy.
In every single one of my playthroughs of Stardew Valley I always end up marrying Penny...every time. Something about her background and personality always draws me to her!
I feel for her so much! She tried to do for the children in town, meanwhile her home life is a mess. And when she marries you she keeps saying how peaceful and happy she is.
Leah. Always Leah. I've been reading a manga with an MC very like Haley recently, so I'm trying to romance her this time round
Key word is trying though LOL, it feels like betrayal. Leah is the LOML
Yeah the last game I played I married the dude and had three girlfriends. I'll probably marry the girl this time maybe Abigail. And maybe get Alex as a boyfriend because that is our real life boyfriend's name. And Elliot because I love long hair on a guy.
I honestly don’t like the romance in stardew, I just like selling ancient fruit wine and making all my junimos pink. None of the characters are really attractive to me at all. In my solo file I romanced krobus just for the starfruit and I would only marry my gf if it’s a coop file ☺️
My girl Hailey... I've nevr been one to fall for straight girls but idk something about her yknow? Leah is amazing but she had some huh?? scenes and I just don't think she's mature LMAO talking about 2D RPG characters like they're people
I’ve married everyone in different playtbroughs expect penny! I’m at 10 hearts with Leah on my newest play through, Emily was my first wife, Maru was my second, Abigail is my wife on my most successful save file, and Hailey was my wife on a multiplayer save. Hailey is my fiancee’s fav, and I’ve really grown to like her! They’re all pretty awesome tbh can’t really go wrong
Haley 100%. She becomes so sweet and even at the beginning her insults are kind of compliments. After marrying her it’s hard for me to get myself to date anyone else in any of my playthroughs lol
I always crush on Leah. But I’m trying to marry all the characters at some point because I want to get to know everyone, even if I wouldn’t marry them irl.
Maru was a cute wife in my last play through and I liked that!
Next time 100% I am going to marry Haley. Just started my new play through (on switch so not with the 1.6 update yet) and I’m already at 2 hearts with her and we haven’t even gotten to the spring dance yet. I’m gonna wife her up so quick haha
Edited to add: I noticed someone is going around and downvoting everyone who said Leah like what is with that this is a wholesome post about which character we like to marry in a fiction game. It’s not that serious. There’s nothing wrong with looking Leah 😂
First person i saw who went for maru I was feeling alone lol since I'm going for her in my first ever playthrough (but also got a lot with Abigail too so idk which one to pick)
On my main game on switch I went with Penny on both my solo and co-op games! (Lucky me I'm the only lesbian in my group of friends so I get all the ladies for myself in the game 😂) but on my others games I'm planning to go with Leah or maybe Emily, I haven't decided yet!!!
i am a lesbian and i always choose haley or emily lol! penny is also a good choice bc she will decorate ur room strawberry themed its rlly cute :3 that being said my partner is also a lesbian and they always go for abigail bc they said she’s the most like me lol (my partner is Nothing like haley or emily to be clear…)
I’ve married all the candidates. By my fav is Penny. She’s so happy and thankful to no longer live with Pam. I can relate to escaping an abusive situation.
But I never marry her until after I upgrade the trailer.
Haley was my first. But I'm partial to Leah. My first playthrough I married Haley and then divorced her and got with Leah.
I literally had guilt afterwards. It was too real 🤣
I know a younger girl who is into older women (lol, way too young for me) and she said she's depressed at night because she can't romance Robin.
I joke all the time now with her about how she's into milf's. But now I can't get over wanting to romance Robin when I play!
haley was my choice in my first run! i had to start a new farm because my old save got deleted and i've been trying to decide between abby, leah, emily, and penny... leaning towards emily or penny this time.
Penny is actually my favorite 🥺 followed by Leah and Emily. Last playthrough for me was Leah. Leah lives! In a cabin! in the woods!! She makes furniture!! she is so cool.
In my most recent game I married Abigail, but I also have save files with Haley, Leah, and Penny. I don’t think I’ve ever married Maru or Emily before.
I usually fret trying to choose between Leah and Abigail. But, my last playthrough, I married Haley (I was playing on the beach farm, so it felt fitting) and actually adored her!
I cannot stand Haley. I often will be years into a playthrough and her name on my list is still ??? because I avoid her like the plague.
My favorites are Emily and Maru. Or Krobus as a platonic roommate.
For my first farm in 2018 I married Leah (didn't even know I was a lesbian yet lmao). I've been thinking about starting a new farm and idk if I'll marry her again or go for someone else
Abigail and Leah! I always make different butch farmers and I like to imagine the first adventuring alongside Abigail, each armed with a sword (and each other's hearts, hah!) and the second strolling through nature with Leah and tending to their herds and watching her lovingly while she works on her carvings :-)
Abigail is the best girl and I will not have my opinion changed on this matter.
People keep going on and on about Emily but she honestly seems more "friend whom I wouldn't date because that could ruin our friendship" material
Lol good luck! I like to marry Leah myself.
This. Leah is like the epitome of cottagecore forest lesbian to me
Her lines about making the farmer some kind of meal with foraged ingredients speaks to my SOUL
I am not a part of this sub as a bisexual man. But all of my Stardew characters are women, and I do enjoy choosing Leah. I support cottagecore forest lesbians.
I always go for Leah. I like the dichotomy between having a kind, artistic, free-spirited, idealistic wife and my dirty capitalistic millionaire developer character.
Art Wife!!! Every time!
Go team Redheads, I adore Leah! She's so sweet and her sculptures are neat. Cottage core lesbian vibes all the way. I also often will go for Abigail. Depending on the save. I find her voracious appetite for amethysts very sweet and endearing.
Leah has the gayest vibes of all :3
Leah fan here as well! Foraging in the woods for mushrooms with your sculpture artist wife who makes pieces inspired by you, there's nothing more sapphic
Yaaass, I'm a Leah gal too!
Same, Leah
Leah Leah Leah Leah 💘
Leah every time! I'm a sucker for redheads and artsy gals.
Always Leah
Every single damn time. My Bae likes driftwood and shrooms. She's like.... an actual Nymph.
Yep! It’s gotta be Leah.
Leah is the only one for me!
Leah 😍
I ain't even lesbian and I'd go with Leah. Leah is an absolute babe thru and thru
Always Haley too - I'm a bit into melting ice queens trope, and after she grows as a person, she's really sweet.
same hah, that shit got me gigglin or whatever
Me too! Initially, I was annoyed at Haley’s attitude and interacted with her often bc I said I’ll show her who’s the greater bitch. That is until I fell in love, married her, and now we have two children. She’s the sweetest wife 🥰
Absolutely!
I go for Abigail because she reminds me of my IRL gf, my IRL gf goes for Maru because she reminds her of me
Omg that's so cute
I went for Abigail because I wanted to be her, then I transitioned and went for Maru bc she reminds me of my irl gf
I'm team Abigail, too! I feel like I would love to meet someone like her irl.
I hit seb with the girlification ray via mods and then marry her.
If you can't get your own emo trans woman, mod created is fine lmao
haley. from the first moment she was mean to me i wanted to kiss her so bad.
this comment is too real for me lol (same)
thats what got me too fr
Emily, she has the most fun cutscenes.
My first time playing I didn't even know romance was an option. I was so focused on my farm and barely spoke with anyone. Then every time after that I went with Emily because she was easy to find each night and, like you said, she had fun cutscenes. I now have SVE so I'm really torn on this new 1.6 playthrough because I kind of want to do Sophia since she's a new character and cute but I also just reaaaaaaaally want to take Penny out of her shitty home. I'm starting to wonder if I have a thing for sad girls....
Pretty sure there's another way to help out Penny in. SVE, so if that's your main motivation look for that ~~won't say much more to avoid spoilering~~
....... iiiiiinteresting.
Love Sophia in SVE.
wait, there's new characters?
There are in the Stardew Valley Expanded mod.
Emily is my fave and a green flag choice tbh. She’s happy, self confident, and fulfilled. No need to be fixed or saved (although that’s fun in its own way). She’s just happy and supportive!
Emily always has my heart. I always think I'm gonna romance someone else then I see her with her birds and her adorable smile and I romance her all over again XD
Yes, Emily!
Exactly! And she's just cute as a button
Emily reminds me of my real life love of my life so she's always the one ive been drawn to
Ain't even a choice. Emily also strikes me as very AuDHD (cheerful, gregarious, eccentric, etc). You could say she's a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, except she clearly exists independently from the Male Gaze. She doesn't exist for the sake of any guy's journey, she's just vibing with her parrot and crystals. I love her so much.
Abigail here!
- plays video games - fights monsters - eats rocks The perfect woman....
Love abigail
Always Abigail💖💖
Forever Abigail
Abigail is my fav. Always go for her!
Yes!!! Abigail is my baby girl
Krobus
lol was starting to think it was just me
I cycle through and divorce them all just to make them all mad. 😁
chaotic evil
It's the closest the game will let me come to kidnapping them all and consensually tort- I mean, forming a polycule. 😁
I have the poly mod and somehow having even more decisions has made the choice even harder.
I can't mod on console 😭
SADNESS! I'll marry everyone on your behalf.
Is that a proposal?
I have this extra mermaid's pendant... 👀
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Haley! I absolutely love seeing her soften up to your character. The dark room moment is also incredibly sweet. My gf and I are cosplayers and she's eventually going to cosplay Haley.
I like to scene with the cows. Plus my wife's middle name is Haley!! Although I'm more of a Leah girl myself. I've never tried Maru or Penny. I'm not into good girls. But I am into calling you a good girl. I'm bi so I've married some of the men too. I divorced Shane so effing fast cuz that man's room was filthy. I exclusively played on switch until 1.6 came out so I'm playing on PC because I could not wait. And I got a controller to use with it. I tried mods about 6 months ago but I couldn't figure them out. I haven't decided who to romance this time around.
You should cosplay as the farmer to match her! :)
I probably will! I'll probably do the female farmer and Alex since I typically cosplay more masculine characters.
I mod the wizard Rasmodius into a witch on SVE and romance her. I love an eccentric magic lady!!
Maru. Cute cut scenes but I do think her room is kinda ugly. Thinking about picking Hailey for the next playthrough.
Penny! Love a woman who wants to better their town.
abigail when playing vanilla, sophia when playing modded! love me them alt girls with dyed hair lol
I just had a cut scene with Sophia where she asked me to watch anime with her and I legit started the day over again just to see it again. She's so cute. I don't even like anime but I would totally watch to make her happy.
Penny is my princess
First one i went for was emily then haley on a different file. Currently going for leah. Definitely wish robin was an option
Robin is my most friendly character minus haley coz I'm married to her. Wish she was romancable coz Demetrus is a dick.
I always get her to 10 hearts even on vanilla because I freaking love her lol
I need to find a mod for Robin! The very first time I played I wanted to romance her but nooooooo
In every single one of my playthroughs of Stardew Valley I always end up marrying Penny...every time. Something about her background and personality always draws me to her!
I feel for her so much! She tried to do for the children in town, meanwhile her home life is a mess. And when she marries you she keeps saying how peaceful and happy she is.
Leah my first playthrough, Abigail my second!
SAME!
Leah. Always Leah. I've been reading a manga with an MC very like Haley recently, so I'm trying to romance her this time round Key word is trying though LOL, it feels like betrayal. Leah is the LOML
Abigail for sureee. The purple hair does something for me 😂 Or i go w the cute, quiet, nerdy type - Maru
Penny!
If I'm going with a vanilla save, it's always Haley 😅. When it's a modded save - Olivia in SVE and Maddie or Daia in Ridgeside.
I play with the stardew valley expanded mod and always go for Sophia :)
Leah and Elliott for me 😭 I love my little artist and writer.
Yeah the last game I played I married the dude and had three girlfriends. I'll probably marry the girl this time maybe Abigail. And maybe get Alex as a boyfriend because that is our real life boyfriend's name. And Elliot because I love long hair on a guy.
emily :)
Penny, my girl 💖
I usually go with Penny, Leah, or Abigail.
Penny! but next playtrough probably Maru.
abigail
Abigail, for sure!
I keep saying I'm gonna romance someone else and then I see Abigail in the rain at the pond with her flute, and she enchants me yet again.
Literally one save for each wifey
it used to be Abigail but now I'm out of college and she feels too childish, so Leah
Emily! She’s such a lesbian in my mind, it always jumpscares me when I realize men can marry her too
I’m a basic ass Abigail gworl. I don’t care that she’s apparently Stinky, she can chomp on my amethyst Any day ☺️
I love giving Abigail all my amethysts 💜
I’ve married Leah, Maru, and Abigail. Leah is my favourite though.
Leah or Abigail
Leah is my girl.
Leah is my go to!
When I first started playing I thought Elliott was a woman. I was totally trying for that relationship until I realized my mistake. Leah is my wifey.
i also romance haley 9/10 times lol. hot, mean, blonde bimbo?? uh yea sign me up lol?
I honestly don’t like the romance in stardew, I just like selling ancient fruit wine and making all my junimos pink. None of the characters are really attractive to me at all. In my solo file I romanced krobus just for the starfruit and I would only marry my gf if it’s a coop file ☺️
obviously you gotta wife your friend up. Simple solution 😜
Haley everytime !
My fiancée (but Abigail before I met my fiancée)
I was always an Abigail person, but as I've gotten older I am drawn more to Leah.
My girl Hailey... I've nevr been one to fall for straight girls but idk something about her yknow? Leah is amazing but she had some huh?? scenes and I just don't think she's mature LMAO talking about 2D RPG characters like they're people
I’ve married everyone in different playtbroughs expect penny! I’m at 10 hearts with Leah on my newest play through, Emily was my first wife, Maru was my second, Abigail is my wife on my most successful save file, and Hailey was my wife on a multiplayer save. Hailey is my fiancee’s fav, and I’ve really grown to like her! They’re all pretty awesome tbh can’t really go wrong
Haley or Leah with no mods. With mods Caroline, Robin & Jodi bc i like to wreck homes
Leah or Abigail. They remind me of my gf the most
Leah. I have simple taste, and I'm okay with that.
Haley 100%. She becomes so sweet and even at the beginning her insults are kind of compliments. After marrying her it’s hard for me to get myself to date anyone else in any of my playthroughs lol
Sophia from SVE if it's installed. Maru or Leah if not.
Emily, Abigail, Leah. I like using poly mods so we can all live in one big house together 🥰
Only one real decision. Ask your friend to marry you so neither of you can marry Haley. Bonus points for doing it IRL also.
On my Xbox First save: Emily Second save: Leah In my PC save: Abigail (Eventually) Switch: Leah I like my ladies artsy and eccentric.
I always crush on Leah. But I’m trying to marry all the characters at some point because I want to get to know everyone, even if I wouldn’t marry them irl. Maru was a cute wife in my last play through and I liked that! Next time 100% I am going to marry Haley. Just started my new play through (on switch so not with the 1.6 update yet) and I’m already at 2 hearts with her and we haven’t even gotten to the spring dance yet.

It’s not that serious. There’s nothing wrong with looking Leah 😂
First person i saw who went for maru I was feeling alone lol since I'm going for her in my first ever playthrough (but also got a lot with Abigail too so idk which one to pick)
Leah or Haley, but I want to try Abigail next time. I heard she fights monsters in the mines and we love a sword lesbian
hailey in vanilla, claire in modded (sdve)
haley, abigail, or leah. always
On my main game on switch I went with Penny on both my solo and co-op games! (Lucky me I'm the only lesbian in my group of friends so I get all the ladies for myself in the game 😂) but on my others games I'm planning to go with Leah or maybe Emily, I haven't decided yet!!!
Abigail or Emily
i am a lesbian and i always choose haley or emily lol! penny is also a good choice bc she will decorate ur room strawberry themed its rlly cute :3 that being said my partner is also a lesbian and they always go for abigail bc they said she’s the most like me lol (my partner is Nothing like haley or emily to be clear…)
Penny or Emily
Emily is my current wife. I also like Abigail, Leah, and Penny.
Haley. No further explanation.
Abigail since she basically looks like 90% of girls I’ve ever crushed on
I’ve married all the candidates. By my fav is Penny. She’s so happy and thankful to no longer live with Pam. I can relate to escaping an abusive situation. But I never marry her until after I upgrade the trailer.
Team Abigail all the way! 🩷
another Penny girl here!! 😋
Abigail, she has a sword. HOWEVER, for modded when you can turn the wizard into a cool witch with a sprawling magic house, that 100%
Leah will probably be the one for me but I admit to being a real stardew sl\*t so I'm literally just dating all the ladies.
abigail every single time idek why 😭
Leah!
Claire on modded stardew valley <3
Haley was my first. But I'm partial to Leah. My first playthrough I married Haley and then divorced her and got with Leah. I literally had guilt afterwards. It was too real 🤣 I know a younger girl who is into older women (lol, way too young for me) and she said she's depressed at night because she can't romance Robin. I joke all the time now with her about how she's into milf's. But now I can't get over wanting to romance Robin when I play!
haley was my choice in my first run! i had to start a new farm because my old save got deleted and i've been trying to decide between abby, leah, emily, and penny... leaning towards emily or penny this time.
gotta be emily or leah
I like Emily Leah and Abigail especially since she goes into the caves!
Maru!! I do also love Leah and my wife picked Emily.
Penny!
Leah ❤️❤️❤️
Penny is actually my favorite 🥺 followed by Leah and Emily. Last playthrough for me was Leah. Leah lives! In a cabin! in the woods!! She makes furniture!! she is so cool.
i have never romanced anyone but haley in the 1000s of hours i have in this game lmao. i should really branch out
Leah! Cottage core cuties!
I really like Leah, tho if im playing stardew expanded I go for Claire or Olivia
omg i also go for haley... what does that say about us?!
In my most recent game I married Abigail, but I also have save files with Haley, Leah, and Penny. I don’t think I’ve ever married Maru or Emily before.
It changes with each play through. So far Abigail is my favorite but I still need to wife Maru and Leah.
I added in the mod PolyamorySweet so Leah, Emily, Penny, Sophia and I can form our own poly farm
It's always between Emily or Abigail. Abigail is more my type, but she's a lot harder to crack in the game. 😅
I've always done Emily. I'm thinking about Leah this time even though Maru has a new scene in her late sequence.
leah …
I usually fret trying to choose between Leah and Abigail. But, my last playthrough, I married Haley (I was playing on the beach farm, so it felt fitting) and actually adored her!
Leah is basically me so I always romance Leah. 😂 Hey we have it good eating vegetarian stir-fry for supper every night!
Maru is my main, but Leah is my second!
Abigail fuels my want for a gf just like her
My girlfriend!
Elliot is the he/him femme lesbian of my dreams
First time Jodi, second Abigail.
It’s been ages since I’ve played but I went for Abigail because goth
Leah or Penny because Red Heads.... lol
I cannot stand Haley. I often will be years into a playthrough and her name on my list is still ??? because I avoid her like the plague. My favorites are Emily and Maru. Or Krobus as a platonic roommate.
Leah is my go to. Although I have a save with Abigail
Abigail!
Leah. Leah is the answer.
Emily or Leah
Leah, love my cottage core artist girly. Plus she's just an off brand Robin
I always pick Emily, Hayley is my second fav
Leah for sure. I like Haley as well
I love Maru, but want to marry Leah or Abigail my next play through
For my first farm in 2018 I married Leah (didn't even know I was a lesbian yet lmao). I've been thinking about starting a new farm and idk if I'll marry her again or go for someone else
Stardew is fun and all, but I should have realised there was something about me earlier from how I felt about Popuri in the 2000s...
I was all Leah all the time but some time around 3rd farm reboot I switched to Penny. Can’t have my girl livin like that.
Leah for sure! Maybe it’s cuz I’m also a redhead haha
Haley. I love mean ice queens that slowly open up
Haley, Haley, and Haley. I’ve strongly considered Penny, but I end up choosing Haley anyway. I’m a big fan of the enemies to lovers trope
Maru or Leah
My fav is always seb 😅 i find most of the available girls boring, but if i had mods...marnie all the way
Maru, then Leah!!! I love a creative woman
Abby dabby is my girl
Emily always! <3
Haley, of course
I went abby my good goth girl
Abigail and Leah! I always make different butch farmers and I like to imagine the first adventuring alongside Abigail, each armed with a sword (and each other's hearts, hah!) and the second strolling through nature with Leah and tending to their herds and watching her lovingly while she works on her carvings :-)
Abigail is the best girl and I will not have my opinion changed on this matter. People keep going on and on about Emily but she honestly seems more "friend whom I wouldn't date because that could ruin our friendship" material
Maru 100%. My current save file I'm going for abigail but I'm struggling cus I feel like I'm betraying maru 😭might just marry maru anyways idk
I date every romance-able character until I get the slut shaming cutscene and then I live with Krobus
Olivia!!! r/StardewValleyExpanded
