I believe there are two possible answers based upon how the couple views the following scripture. Either they disregard this scripture and believe that God doesn't mean what He says or they believe what He has said but refuse to submit to His will.
Rom 1:22-2:1
22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.
29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,
30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
31 they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32 Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

God is not some being sitting up in heaven approving or disapproving. That understanding of God is a myth. Whether a mythical being approves or disapproves isn't anymore important to me than whether Zeus or Athena or any other mythical gods approve.
It is unfortunate that so many otherwise rational people persist in believing in magic.

I don't care about god's approval, when I love a woman and she loves me - there is nothing in the world more important

Same-sex couples have all sorts of religions. Many of them don't even believe in God, so it is a non-issue.

Nobody knows the truth ... it's a book written thousands of years ago ... passed down and added to by homophobic men. If I feel in my heart that God loves me, then it's so. I've had many a conversation with him and he never once led me astray. You have no right to tell me what my relationship is with him.

There are as many beliefs in God in this world as there are people. For any one person to think "THEIR GOD" is the one and only God that judges people based on ones view point is very sad. May their God enlighten them and give them the power and strength to accept and honor other people and their beliefs. The God that I believe in does not disapproved of my sexual preference.
DO YOU HEAR ME "godsapostolic".........

Of course! If God has no problem with animals that display homosexual behaviors, why would it be a problem when same sex couples displaying unconditional love?

This has been answered so many time before that I won't even bother now. Search for past questions on the subject. You'll find a myriad of answers there.
God has more important things to do, he has not time to judge who sleeps with who.

Well, they could be ateists, you cant genaralise it. But genarly, they understand the reason behind being gay etc and come to the conclusion, that the church is making a mistake in this and god is behind them all the way.

Define God.
Which one? Which specific interpretation? Which Religion?
In MY Religious Belief not only does He and She approve, they condone.
There is absolutely no proof that any one form of Deity does or does not exist. Having said that, all you are doing is arguing opinion.
