"Hate to be the obvious JellalErza shipper here"

I don't believe you. I think you love being the obvious Erza x Jellal shipper :P

Joking aside, I too don't understand why anyone would vote for their relationship as the worst.

Jellal wriggled out of that relationship for now, because he's still too riddled with guilt and thus believes that Erza deserves someone better, but looking at how he handled Oración Seis, I'd say his confidence and feeling of self-worth are on the rise again. Maybe he'll soon be able to overcome his guilt.

And Erza just respected Jellal's position, proofing that she cares so much for him that she's even willing to wait until he comes clear with himself, which is exactly in keeping with her personality. She believes that people should be allowed to take care of their own problems and she's patiently waiting for Jellal to do that, not out of desinterest, but out of respect.

That she's willing to patiently wait and is neither putting any pressure on Jellal nor looking for another boyfriend shows just how much she really cares for him.

Or at least that's how I see it.
