Toward the end of Paul Levitz's run (around 1988-89), wasn't there a flirtation between Lightning Lass and Magnetic Kid? MK was Cosmic Boy's little brother who joined the Legion after CB resigned.

In the current version, it looks like Mon-el and Dream Girl are a couple. I’m also wondering if there’s something going on with Shrinking Violet and Starboy?
I think Pol and Ayla were just friends. I always thought Pol should’ve been revealed to be gay.
It seems like somebody should be! An all straight Legion in 2020 is pretty poor diversity. I was hoping DC would have the stones to let Jon be gay, they could use a more high profile gay male character, especially as most of the gay male characters they have are lower tier characters and are mostly MIA.
A downside of Bendis ditching all the old characters is that he kind of ditched Ayla and Violet, the pre-existing gay couple, and felt the need to make some of the previously white characters minorities, rather than use pre-existing black or Asian Legionnaires like Tyroc, Glorith, Dragonwing, Danielle Foccault or Myg (or Kid Quantum II, Dragonmage, XS, etc. from the Reboot).
Maybe, as he's introduced some black and Asian versions of Garth, Rokk, Ayla, Violet, etc., he also intends to have some like Jo or Tinya also be gay, but, it's gonna take a while, since he's doling out information on these new versions in dribs and drabs, it feels like.
Original run: When they were trapped on an ice asteroid with Colossal Boy, Violet and Chameleon Boy, and didn't think they'd ever get home, something happened between Imra (Saturn Girl) and Brin (Timber Wolf) which was never fully explained.
New 52: On the team that was stuck back in our time there was a bit of a flirtation between Timber Wolf and Dawnstar, perhaps stemming from Wildfire's fatalistic view of his damaged ERG-1 suit, as well as Dawny's frustration with his energy (i.e. 'untouchable') form.

Timber Wolf, every girl's go-to bad-boy to get out her frustrations with her real boyfriend. No girl's real boyfriend himself...
In issue 3 of the current run, Shadow Lass and Cosmic Boy are together. With at least one cute name from Tasmia to Rokk.
Brainy and Lyle
He never did let anyone see inside that folder marked as Lyle...
