That both Mulder and Scully, while they had other romantic interets which fizzled, were actually a complete pair. They needed each other, understood each other and were able to overlook things that others might have not put up with. There was a deep profound respect which turned into love, IMHO, and when they stopped fighting it, their relationship reached a level I think most people only dream of.

What killed the show was apathy on CC's part, and like DD said, they just ran out of stories. Their writers either left or couldn't produce anything that met CC's standards, whatever they were. CC had two other shows going on at the same time and I also think that only served to kill off the Xfiles faster than necessary. Also, I think there was an ego trip or two going on and the fans were the ones who were left behind trying to figure out what actually happened.
