Even if she was able to show more dependence as a character, it was not written well at all, and just became confusing to Marvel fans. There were a number of rumors claiming that Whedon insisted that the romance be put in, and that he possibly threatened to leave if they wouldn't allow it in. Some of these rumors were confirmed by the Russo brothers, who admitted that the romance was a "Whedon decision. When an idea only seems like a good idea to one person, it typically doesn't turn out to be a good idea.
Perhaps Whedon should have listened to others about this idea and realized that maybe pitting Hulk and Black Widow together in a romantic plot was not the best idea. However, Bruce Banner was never a character that Widow dated, as even the Marvel comic book writers knew that Bruce and Natasha just wouldn't click.
Even though the MCU versions of Hulk and Black Widow are quite different from their comic-book counterparts, they apparently still aren't different enough to have a meaningful relationship together. There are so many romantic plots in Marvel Comics that it's confusing that Whedon didn't decide to go with one of those rather than forcing a romance that just wouldn't work.
Had Marvel Studios waited, it could've brought one of Black Widow's more interesting romantic plots to the big screen, like Bucky and Black Widow - a relationship that Marvel fans have wanted to see for years. Though Bruce's bond with Natasha does show sometimes when he's in the Hulk form in order to bring him back to normal, Hulk's distrust is still apparent.
One example of this distrust was Hulk hanging up on Natasha and leaving on a Quinjet at the end of Age of Ultron. In a deeper sense, this also means that a part of Bruce doesn't trust Natasha either.
A relationship is built on trust, and the distrust displayed by Hulk would surely hurt both of them. In a realistic relationship, Bruce would either need to start trusting Natasha fully, or they would need to end their relationship. Evidently, they chose the latter option. The entire idea of the lullaby that Natasha uses on Hulk to calm him is really quite the stretch.
First off, as already mentioned, Hulk doesn't trust Natasha, so it wouldn't make sense that he would be calmed down enough to do anything but smash when confronted with her. Secondly, the biggest issue, is how this concept came into fruition. While the idea of a keyword that calms Hulk can make a bit of sense, the manner it which it came to be is incredibly rocky and unrealistic. Hulk is essentially an uncontrollable beast that would have realistically crushed Black Widow within the first few attempts.
Hulk wasn't really the first romance that Black Widow got into in the MCU, at least in the eyes of fans. Not only did Marvel toss out this potential romance without any explanation, in addition to her hinted relationship with Clint, but there was yet another romance that Age of Ultron absolutely skipped over. Even this romance, revealed by Mackie, was thrown out the window just like every other hinted romance Natasha ever could have had.
Without getting too detailed, it's quite clear that the modern relationship has a certain need. As seen in The Incredible Hulk , Bruce Banner is physically unable to perform this kind of need simply based on the fact that he turns into the Hulk whenever he gets too excited. While it's very possible for a relationship to exist without the physical factor, it's unlikely that this would be the kind of relationship that Natasha would want.
Based on her characteristics in the comics, Natasha looks more for the physical parts of the relationship than the emotional. Simply based on this physical need that Bruce could not fulfill, it's very likely that their relationship would not have lasted much longer after Age of Ultron had Hulk not left the planet. Another reason why fans couldn't believe their romance was that we never even got the chance to see how their romance even began. Though we'd seen the characters numerous times before in the MCU, there was never any clue that the two of them would start dating.
By the time we reached Age of Ultron , Whedon treated the two characters like their romance had already been set up. Their relationship was treated like a pre-existing part of the MCU, which really made no sense whatsoever.
Had there been set up for the Hulk and Black Widow romance, perhaps fans would've been more likely to believe it.
