We had a gay guy in our D&D group. He was pretty cool, really chill too. Sadly he was in a toxic, almost abusive relationship, and one day he just disappeared :(
I, as a DM, don't know how to handle romance well. And the only player who has at all tried had a male character romance a male NPC. It's kind of an aside because I don't feel comfortable doing romance at all.
But it went the other way, too, with my making a gay character in that player's campaign and it being an aside.
LGBTQ players and characters have been more accepted the last 10ish years or so, but I'll be honest here. In 35 years of playing I've seen romance come up in one campaign, and that was it.
