[Standard Fantasy Setting] What would the “romantic” perceptions of humans be for various fantasy races?

Humans (both in real life and in fiction) have a tendency to romanticize various fantastical races.

Vampires as brooding bad boys or slinky seductresses with tragic pasts and hidden hearts of gold who need the love of a good (human) man or woman to heal them.

Elves as glamorous prince or princess types, often appearing snobby before their brittle exteriors melt.

Mermaids as universally beautiful sirens who desire only to marry a human man (Mermen don’t get as much press, but they usually seem to go for a “handsome prince” vibe).

Even Orcs get portrayed as hunky, rough barbarians or sexy action girls.

What about the reverse? Since there are so many half-elves, half-orcs, half-demon, half-pretty much everything, they must find us attractive, too.

If an Elf author was writing a romance novel about an Elf falling for a Human, how should we expect the Human woman/man to be portrayed?

What about stories written by Dwarves, Halflings, Orcs, etc?

I could see Elves as writing humans as "manic pixie dream girls". 

In an Elven romance novel, a human's short lifespan and lack of experience makes them naiveté, but also impulsive and adventure seeking.

For example, the Elven protagonist of a romance would have to deal with elaborate and lengthy courtships from Elven suitors, but secretly desire the fiesty, earthy, human stable boy.
