Sigune throws in:
Well, I have always thought that if Snape were to be paired off 
with /anyone/ at all it might as well be with Madam Pince. Somehow I 
tend to think of Snape as a bookish person for whom the main 
attraction of his job at Hogwarts lies in the rare Dark Arts books 
held in the school library - and who should manage that library but 
Madam Pince? I can just imagine the two of them collaborating to tame 
one particularly vicious book Snape might wish to consult... (LOL)

Ah well. In fact I can't imagine Snape having a love interest. I 
think he's strictly celibate - I don't think he cares or /wants/ to 
care about emotional attachments at all. He'd think it weakness. The 
design of Alan Rickman's clothes in the film only reinforces that 
idea - the frock coat has a clerical look to it.
Nah, he's a scholar. He loves books and magic more than people.
