I'm a little frustrated with this last episode in that it wasn't explicitly shown Future Trunks and Future Mai were a couple. Trunks should have just come out and said, "Yeah, I met my wife in the midst Goku Black's rendition of Judgement Day." The man is supposedly 31 years old and yet, they're beating around the bush about their feelings like they are school children. It would have been funny to seen Kid Trunks and Kid Mai's reaction to being married in the future. Meh, wasted moment.

We don't now if Trunks and Mai are a couple in the future, though even if they are Trunks isn't ''beating around the bush about their feelings like they are school children'', he's just not mentioning it.
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

He needs to mention it. The only couple in Dragon Ball that's been close to showing a mature relationship is Krillin and 18. Chi Chi nags Goku to death, and Goku's an idiot when it comes to anything else other than fighting. Bulma shows affection for Vegeta, but Vegeta's a prideful man who is awkward with this sort of thing. I see a lot of potential in Trunks and Mai with how they've been shown in their interactions.

He doesn't need to mention it, it's not like any characters are demanding it from him or that it's a vital piece of information for his plight against Black. And if they do ahve a relationship, not mentioning it doesn't make it less 'mature', it just means he doesn;t feel like it's something he needs to mention.

I really don't like Goten X Valese but recently I've started to like Goten X Marron after the idea of Goku and Krillin basically becoming legit family.

It's nice, isn't it? Two lifelong friends now bonded by blood through their individual descendants.

I don't see Goten getting paired with anyone else in Super so it seems like a possibility.

Actually, it's pretty funny.
Goten/Marron - Life long friend's children
Trunks/Mai - One's the child of Z's original villain, and another was one of the original villains.

I didn't even think about that. Good point.

That's actually a really interesting point on Trunks/Mai I never thought of that.

But yeah o would love for Goten/Marron to happen, even if it's completely innocent. Like Marron has a schoolgirl crush on him, and Goten being the naive little kid he is, has no idea

That scenario seems very likely.
