The Celts are often celebrated for their rich cultural traditions, vibrant art, and deep spiritual connections to nature, which fostered a strong sense of community and identity. Unlike the Romans, who emphasized military conquest and political power, the Celts valued oral storytelling and communal rituals, which contributed to a unique cultural legacy. Additionally, the Celts' adaptability and resilience in the face of Roman expansion demonstrate their ability to maintain their cultural integrity despite external pressures. Ultimately, the preference for Celts over Romans can stem from a romanticized view of their way of life and enduring influence on European heritage.
When the Celts were invaded, their reactions varied based on the context and the invading forces. Many tribes resisted fiercely, employing guerrilla tactics and engaging in direct combat to defend their territory and way of life. However, some Celts opted for negotiation or alliance, seeking to secure favorable terms or to integrate with the invaders. Ultimately, the responses were shaped by the specific circumstances and the strength of the invading forces.

Well apart from the obvious answer, that Romans were from Italy and Celts were from northern Europe, like the British Isles and Ireland, the way they organised is totally different too. Celts were tribal but Romans followed a system of government not unlike some governments today.
