Each companion has their own personality and moral compass. Interacting with NPCs that you come across during your adventure or dealing with specific scenarios and situations in a certain way will either align or not with the companion you wish to romance. They will end up approving or disapproving of your actions, strengthening or straining your relationship.
Once you have recruited new companions, you can find them in your camp. Interact with them to get to know them, unlock companion quests, and act properly and you will eventually unlock romantic dialogue options, which in turn can lead to physical intimacy and romance scenes. Developing a romantic relationship with one of your companions will also influence how the rest of the companions think about you.
