I've been active in the fandom for a very short amount of time but I have to say this:
If you think Ten holding onto Rose and mentioning her to his later companions was just RTD not wanting to let go of her you misunderstood the point of Ten's character.
I am neither defending how the show treated Martha nor am I saying that to some people it couldn't be frustrating. But it absolutely alines with Ten's character.
He was (as we like to repeatedly mention) born out of love for her. REALLY think about it. He EXISTS cause he loved her SO MUCH he died as Nine to save her and then turned himself into someone he felt she might be more attracted to. He's entire existence as Ten is FOR. ROSE.
And you can see that in season 2. He's more protective of her, shows more affection towards her. I mean, he told the fucking Devil she was his religion and was the only thing he believed in. When I say she was his everything I MEAN IT.
And then she was taken from him. And he did everything he could to talk to her one last time and she was gone forever. Imagine how DEVASTATING that was. To have all that stolen from you.
So it would be weirder if he never mentioned her again. His religion, his Fortuna, his reason for existing. He never moved on because he was created FOR HER.
So in conclusion - stop clowning.
