I think it just comes down to whether or not people like a degree of ambiguty when it comes to relationships in drama. Some people do, some people don't and they find it frustrating - frustrating to an unhealthy degree I agree. Ianto clearly has a strong attachment to Jack and Rhys clearly has strong feelings for Gwen but Jack's feelings for both Ianto and Gwen are less clear.

And people like Richard Stokes and Chris Chibnall really don't help matters when they say things like "Jack and Gwen are a love story with 17 complications" and that the relationship between Jack and Gwen is like the relationship between the Doctor and Rose. They rarely talk about the relationship between Jack and Ianto, except in passing, even during the De-Classifieds for both Adam and From Out of the Rain.

Now that S2 has come to an end, I agree that it's time to move on and look forward to S3, especially as I think their relationship will be resolved one way or the other during the next series. :)
