Duh, still too hard. I obsess over so many things whenever I find something new... and being a multishipper doesn't help here, really *lol*
I think the fact that Northstar doesn't appear in the movies may be one of the reasons. But also, he's not a very popular character in general and he doesn't appear in the comic books all that much until you know where to look. A lot of X-Men fans (even those who are into comic books for a long time) don't even know that he exists or that there are any gay couples in the series. He gets attention mostly in LGBT circles. And well, there are lots of pairings to choose from. A lot of people just ship them with somebody else.
But I'm pretty sure they always will have be my number 1 on the list of all X-Men pairings :D
