How to unlock the Paramour achievement in Mass Effect - Definitive Guide

If you are male this will involve Liara or Ashley.

If you are female this will include Kaiden or Liara.

After each main planet mission (Feros, Noveria, and Virmire) when you find yourself back on the Normandy find which character you want to get with and have a conversation with them.

Then on your way to Ilos the event will take place and the achievement will unlock.

Females can get with Ashley? She never gives me the romantic lines she gives my boyfriend. :P Maybe she just doesn't like me?

Ashley is not available for female Sheppard, only Kaiden/Liara.

It's a damn shame, really. I had a hot blonde character that I wanted to use to bump clams with Ashley.

I only spoke to Ashley after 2 main story missions and this still happened, is my Shepard just a smooth talker or has this happened to anyone else?

Did you speak only to Ashley? Maybe if you only consistently talk to one person it happens sooner???

For this achievement a specific gender is not required. If you are playing as a male character then this could either involve Ashley or Liara. If you are female then this can involve Kaiden or Liara. If you plan on getting this achievement with Liara then you must complete the mission: Liara's Dig Site, before you complete the main storyline (Feros, Noveria, Virmire). You will know when you complete the mission because you will gain the achievement: Search and Rescue. If you don't plan on getting it with Liara then that mission is not required. You must start by either completing Feros or Noveria. After the first is completed talk to your chosen character on the Normandy and follow the conversation path that sounds the most romantic. After the conversation is over complete the next planet and repeat by following the conversation that is the most romantic. After the second planet is complete, the planet Virmire will unlock. Complete Virmire and do the same again. After this you will unlock the final level of the game, the planet Ilos. On your way to Ilos your chosen character will come to your room and your achievement will unlock and then enjoy the cutscene that follows =).

Note: you don't need to complete Liara's Dig Site first to get this achievement with her. I completed Feros first, then rescued Liara, and spoke to her after every mission. I was still able to unlock this achievement.

This trophy is actually missable since the game doesn't force you to engage in a romantic relationship with any of the characters. If however you think that a good playthrough absolutely needs some sexy time (like I do) then it'll happen shortly before you reach Ilos.

Possible love interests:
===================

Male Shepard: Ashley, Liara
Female Shepard: Kaidan, Liara

In order to progress the romance you will have to pay your chosen one a visit after each main mission. So as soon as you're back on the Normandy...the two of you will have to talk.

Throughout the game, you can talk to all of your squad members and learn about them. Certain squad members, if you talk with them enough, you can eventually romance. Who you can romance depends on the gender you choose to be, but the romance options are as follows.

Male Shepard: Ashley Williams, Liara T'Soni
Female Shepard: Kaidan Alenko, Liara T'Soni

Whoever you decide to romance, make sure you talk with them after every story mission, and always choose paragon or neutral choices so as to keep the romance going. Even after they express interest, nothing will happen until the end of the game. Once you finally are able to go to Illos, your romantic interest will approach you. Continue to be supportive and eventually you will be given the option to invite them in for the night. Once the scene plays out, you will unlock the achievement.
