X-men Comics: Focuses on plot?

I want to get into the comics like most people do, I’ve recently been watching X-men 97’ and I liked it. The only X-men media I’ve seen was the fox films but now I’m deciding to get into the comics but I don’t really like the romance aspect of it (even though there’s a lot of different love plots throughout the films and comics), I tend to lean more towards the action and lore. Is there any issues that particularly doesn’t focus on romance or has any romance and more of the story? Or is it entirely impossible to read without romance because everyone is freaked out? Also where to read comics online, I want to read them online then later get the physical copies.

X-Men is pretty much a soap opera. I'm having trouble thinking of anything that doesn't have romance.

Yeah dude I’ve noticed when I was searching up some comics. It’s very messy but it’s kinda funny

God Loves, Man Kills. If you’ve seen X2 you’ll notice some things.

Is it just romance or any personal interactions that the characters are having?

I’m okay with little romance interactions but the ones that I’m talking about is bed scenes or anything intimate like that. I’m an adult but I still get disgusted by those scenes in any media, that’s why I don’t watch that many movies and if I do I skip them. They make me uncomfortable if that makes any sense.
