It ain't that compllicated. We're so used to western "romantic comedy" propaganda, that we think, that a woman actually loving you back is some weird fetish.
@LukeAlmighty just like lots of stuff in anime it's also very hyper. So it's not like you want a crazy bitch who will kill anybody who says something weird about you in real life. It's more about the idealized trait of doing literally anything for you because she loves you. The fictional anime part is the killing/maiming. I mean I can't speak for everyone, but that's the basic idea I think.
