Lulz everyone's going to start arguing this again. It's been awhile.
In the original 1997 game, it appeared that Cloud's love interest was somewhere between "completely ambiguous" and "kinda leaning toward Aeris." However, there really was no definitive pairing and it was meant to be able to go either way. But since 2005 or whatever with the coming of the FFVII: Retcon Edition series, there have been major, if not overwhelming implications towards Tifa being Cloud's love interest.
I still voted Aerith though; mainly due to my love of the original game and my disdain for the compilation, but that's a different story.
So I would suggest reading Squall of Seed's article on the whole subject, then form your own opinion.
