Tifa Lockhart is Cloud's childhood friend and a romanceable character in . If you play your cards right, you can take Tifa on a wonderful date at the Gold Saucer and cement your relationship with her. However, this requires forming the strongest bond with her out of anyone else in your party.
All relationships in the game are measured through a mechanic called Bonds of Friendship, resurrected from the original. The best way to improve your relationship with Tifa is to pick the right option in a few important conversations. The best option will help raise your affinity to its highest point, especially when combined with side quests.
Similar to the conversations you can have when you're trying to romance Aerith in , Tifa has six major conversation points sprinkled through Chapters 2 through 11. Pickingthe most romantic option at each point of dialogue will improve your relationship with Tifa.
The more good options you choose, the more likely you are to go on that big date with her in Chapter 12. While you need the highest affinity with Tifa to score the date, her Bonds of Friendship also need to be high enough to trigger the event, making each choice important.
If you're worried about Aerith beating out Tifa romantically, you can always pick some bad decisions in dialogue with her or ignore her side quests/odd jobs. That way, Tifa can sneak ahead of her in terms of affinity.
When conversing with someone, you tend to have three different choices. The key romantic conversations have the best response (ranked three stars), a regular response that provides two stars, and a mean response worth 1 star. The 3-star option is the go-to choice when you're trying to romance Tifa in . Just make sure you reach the right location and chapter to trigger each conversation.
