Yeah, I think that was one of the problems with Gwen. Too much ego and no one willing to take her down a peg or two. Jack tried occasionally but always caved.
The thing with Clark was that he was more mature than most boys his age, so he would've found a more mature woman more appealing than someone younger. I found Lex more attractive than Clark in Smallville. But I'm a dirty old woman, most of the actors who appeal to me are young enough to be my son, lol! I like to look at the pretty ones, but that doesn't mean I'd date them. For me, it's kindness and a sense of humour that I find most attractive.
Yeah, that scene showed that Amy didn't always make good decisions, but at least she learned and became better, realising that Rory was all she needed and accepting the Doctor as just a really good friend, almost a brother in a way.
Reinette was a grown woman who was used to using her womanly charms to gain status and position. That was how things worked for her in the time she was born into. Some women still use sex to manipulate men, and men let them, they even encourage that. I prefer to see that approach not working on the Doctor, he should be above that, but I guess he just doesn't really know how to deal with it when women throw themselves at him. He never seems to expect it, I think he's a bit out of his depth. Human women are hard for him to understand.
Buffy was very grounded, and she used humour as a coping mechanism a lot of the time. She was a good person, very supportive of her friends and very caring towards others. Not like Gwen who was only out for herself.
