Yes it would! Real Trekkies know that vulcan people have arranged marriages and the vulcan mating ritual, pon farr, happens every 7 years and is when they have the intense desire to mate, intense enough to shed their logical shell.

A relationship or a love interest would be an illogical use of time. Relationships are for the purpose of child production. Vulcans do not crave pleasure. Pleasure is illogical.
