Wuthering Heights named Britain's favourite love story

Wuthering Heights has been named the best romantic novel of all time in a poll commissioned by UKTV Drama. The full list was as follows:

1. Wuthering Heights - Emily Brontë, 1847
2. Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen, 1813
3. Romeo and Juliet - William Shakespeare, 1597
4. Jane Eyre - Charlotte Brontë, 1847
5. Gone with the Wind - Margaret Mitchell, 1936
6. The English Patient - Michael Ondaatje, 1992
7. Rebecca - Daphne du Maurier, 1938
8. Doctor Zhivago - Boris Pasternak, 1957
9. Lady Chatterley's Lover - DH Lawrence, 1928
10. Far from The Madding Crowd - Thomas Hardy, 1874

Is it just me or are there very few healthy relationships in that list? Insanity, suicide, death, bullying, um, more insanity, death and suicide ... I've only read seven of the 10 (I haven't read the last three), but still, is that what women find romantic? Really?
