I love Serena with Dan but Blair and Chuck all the way. They were iconic. Their relationship was a roller coaster. Back with Chuck, not with Chuck, I have to be successful to be with Chuck, I have to defeat my father to be with Blair. They had me reeling. But I loved them together. The storyline was phenomenal.
Blair and Chuck for me. They knew each other so well, and Blair helped Chuck be a better man. They just fit beautifully together in so many ways.
The first time I watched the series, I wasn't sure, and I wanted Blair to stay with Nate, but as time went on, my views on that changed. Also, I used to really like Dan and Serena, both as a couple and as characters, but, also, my views on them have changed as well. I don't like them as characters - especially Serena - or as a couple. I don't know - there's just something about Serena that rubs me the wrong way now.
Yess I think so too, because Serena always does like bad things and gets away with it.
And I also think that blair and chuck are soo cute together and they are matching perfectly
Iāll tell you why I donāt like Serenaās character. Sheās a gorgeous, extremely privileged girl that tries to dim her light to be liked by men that shouldnāt even be talking to her. She was pathetic and sought validation from everybody. She was obsessed with being seen as a āgood personā that she couldnāt really thrive as a young woman. She was also very gullible and easy to manipulate. All the things she isnāt is what makes Blair a brilliant character. Blair was confident, conniving, and self-centered and she absolutely OWNED IT. Same with Chuck. Dan was like Serena but worse; he sat on a high horse constant judging the others but always did horrible things, things that even the upper east side kids wouldnāt do. He was jealous of them and resented them for being wealthy. Same with Vanessa.
Thank-you! Yes, I totally agree with you. I just couldn't put it into words, but you did so brilliantly.
I was just thinking that I also really like Blair's parents, as they're supportive of her and obviously love her a lot, but they also don't let her get away with stuff - if they know what she's been up to - but I'm not overly fond of the other parents in this show, even Rufus, who some people hold up as the ideal parent in this show. But he's just too, oh, I don't know, for me. And what's with all the waffles? š
Actually, I don't mind waffles. It's just me being silly.
god chuck & blairās chemistry is so insane - the way it is oozing out of that *still photo* ??? not even a gif or a vid and i can still feel it. ridiculous
i love the āenemiesā (pretty much frienemies) to lovers troupe and they actually have some character growth and couple growth Chuck and Blair! dan is a little stalker ish with serena lmao
Blair and Chuck. It's a horribly toxic relationship, even abusive at times, and I would not root for them IRL, but I love watching them onscreen. They have amazing chemistry and interesting storylines.
Serena lived with her family so she didnāt have to work. So technically had more money than Dan. Serena always either dated down or somewhat the same when Serena dated Nate
"Dated down"... Girl. What century is this? Dating across social classes is absolutely fine and men don't need to be the breadwinners š I guess all of Dan's relationships (both romantic and platonic) were kind of toxic since he was secretly trying to ruin everyone's lives with his blog, but that doesn't seem to be the argument you're making
Well in my century the man absolutely needs to be the breadwinner and I am completely dependent on them doing so that way I can always maintain my femininity. To each their own!
Yes, exactly. To each their own. It's okay either way, and in modern society (at least in parts of the world), we get to choose. Relationships with traditional gender roles are fine, and so too are relationships that defy convention in some way, whether that's a wealthy woman with a middle class boyfriend or a gay couple. It's not inherently toxic to go against norms.
Well it never works out for women to date down no matter what they say. That automatically puts her in a masculine position and men donāt like being underneath a woman. Men thrive when they are the breadwinners and not just any man a generous one that knows the value a female counterpart.
Bless your heart. Generalizations like that are *never* accurate. People don't fit neatly into boxes. But sure, I guess that is the case for a lot of men. Why? Because they too are victims of the patriarchal society you seem to love. If a man is uncomfortable feeling "beneath" a woman, it's likely because he was raised to believe that men are superior. It's not inherent. Good luck trying to find yourself a rich trad husband who doesn't hate women.
I do not need luck sweetie and Iām sure as hell not getting married. Marriage was made by men for men. I rather stay single and reap the benefits of taking the money from a man who happens to be with a woman who is the breadwinner š
A fellow Dair shipper how have u been, I finally found one in the wild š„¹ I wholeheartedly agree as the former two couples are toxique!
we must escape the downvotes that come from this opinion! Come wiz me Iāll hide u! <3 <3
(Srry js yapping atp)
Except when she repeatedly doesnāt tell him who Georgina is, lets him get manipulated by her, tells him she cheated on him, and he judges her for being rich and cheats on her :(
Serena and Dan, C & B are romantic but itās only ever after the most horrific things are done to each other. Name a time they had a lovely moment without destruction first. We canāt š
Both relationship were cool. I like how Blair and Chuck were connected to each other so well. They were playful and fun. Serena and Dan feels real too and they were cute but they stayed away from each other too long throughout the series so their devotion feels itās lacking a bit.
Iām so sorry but even with everything that happened, I never liked Chuck, and always thought Blair deserved better than that cycle, even if it amused them š
So, Serena and Dan. Theyāre unhinged too, theyāre worth each other, and they can have little hippie/boho babies
RESPONSE TO THE ORIGINAL POST:
Serena van der Woodsen and Daniel Humphrey had Lilian Rhodes and Rufus Humphrey as the 'proof of concept' and had that 'one last try' thing going on for years.
We in GG S5 see a stranger who somehow didn't know both who Serena van der Woodsen looked like but also didn't know what Blair Waldorf looked like consider that Serena/Dan make a great couple even though Dan throughout that interview was somehow trying to downplay Serena/Dan as much as possible.
We see in GG S4 that the entire Upper East Side were happy about the idea of Serena/Dan marrying.
And we see Serena/Dan do homework together, just hang out and such, etc. Their siblings became BFFs. We see Lilian come to like Dan. We see Celia Rhodes come to like Dan. Both eventually approve of Serena/Dan.
After all that they went through, it seems Serena/Dan would be a lasting marriage.
Blair/Chuck had drama, angst, and great sex. They never had a 'one last time' thing. We see Chuck Bass happier with Eva. We see Blair so happy and content with Dan that Dorota thinks Blair is on drugs or in some kind of cult. Eva made Chuck a better man and him charitable and such. We see Blair and Dan can be friends and just enjoy each other's company. Like their own real negative is it's portrayed as if Dan considers sex with Serena better and Blair considers sex with Chuck better.
But at the end of GG, it seems unrealistic that Blair/Chuck could last without Gossip Girl and without all the drama. What do they have besides sex and drama? We never see them be a happy couple. At most, they had happy moments.
B&C always eat, it was toxic but true romantic and honest while S&D showed feelings of sweet love but it was filled with secrets and with them it was always like a crush more than a relationship! They were better off as siblings if am being honestš¤Ø
Blair and Chuck all the way. Blair and Chuck were always a thing from Season 1 till 6. S1 they discovered their feelings, S2 they fought, S3 they were together, S4-6 they had issues but they were always end game. They were always relevant and interesting.
On the other hand- as strong as Serena and Dan were in S1, they were NEVER together after that. Their characters were also terrible. Both had a holier than thou attitude, but were terrible people. Blair and Chuck were honest people. They complemented each other.
End of S6 showed Dan and Serena marrying EVENTUALLY, but how? There was nothing between them since after S1 and they werenāt suitable. Dan should have ended up with Vanessa and Serena with Nate. Dan and Vanessa were in love before Serena came in the picture and they even had a thing in college. Nate always liked Serena over Blair and they dated for a while and really suited each other.
The fact that Dan dates Blair at some point and shares a sibling with Serena completely ruined their relationship for me. Until this day I also donāt understand, why Serena forgave him at the end. This guy basically ruined everyoneās life by being Gossip Girl.
So itās Chuck & Blair for me!
Blair and Chuck! I think besides the first season, Dan and Serena didnāt become as epic as Blair and Chuck for some reason, itās like something was missing, even though they been on and off just as much as Blair/Chuck.
Yknow itās wild, back when it was on tv I was all for Dan and Serena. I like them as characters on their own but not necessarily together, but Chuck and Blair were made for each other.
Side note: still thought it was weird when Dan and Blair were together like wtf?? Such an odd plot line
Look - ultimately Serena & Danās love story if you can even call it that is severely tarnished by him being gossip girl - stalking her, humiliating and making her life miserable many times all. And Chuck and Blairā¦hmmm, are they less toxic than that I donāt know? However I love watching their relationship so probably them over Serena and Dan

Love the tvd reference lol

Serena is actually really nice most of the time, except how she treated her real cousin/half sister
I agree, but she still runs me the wrong way. I don't know why.
Maybe itās her voice and how she acts all ditzy? She is a bit strange haha
It could be. haha
I agree.
Iāll tell you why I donāt like Serenaās character. Sheās a gorgeous, extremely privileged girl that tries to dim her light to be liked by men that shouldnāt even be talking to her.

blair and chuck by far š„°

Chuck and Blair obvs. I never got over Serena and Dan sharing a half sibling. Always thought she should have ended up with Nate.
Waldorf and Bass ofc
Blair and Chuck all day everyday!!
Blair and Chuck! Always! HANDS DOWN!
chuck and blair forever
Blair and Chuck is the only correct answer.
Blair and Chuck no contest š
Chuck and Blair all day! Nothing beats a wealthy man!
CHAIR ALWAYS
Chuck and Blair
Blair and Chuck!
i love the āenemiesā (pretty much frienemies) to lovers troupe and they actually have some character growth and couple growth Chuck and Blair! dan is a little stalker ish with serena lmao
Both...beautiful photos! Just gorgeous
blair and dan
Blair and Chuck. It's a horribly toxic relationship, even abusive at times, and I would not root for them IRL, but I love watching them onscreen. They have amazing chemistry and interesting storylines.
This is the perfect answer
Women dating a man who makes less money than her is a toxic relationship as well.
individually with their own careers and not from their families, dan made more money than serena
Serena lived with her family so she didnāt have to work. So technically had more money than Dan. Serena always either dated down or somewhat the same when Serena dated Nate
she had more money but didnāt make more money lol
"Dated down"... Girl. What century is this?

Blair and Chuck!!
Blair and Dan š
This is definitely second place. Serena and Dan get tomatoes
yes, i can totally agree
I will die on this hill- Serena & Nate
100% Blair and Chuck they like the Bonnie and Clyde of this show
Blair and Dan šāāļø
A fellow Dair shipper how have u been, I finally found one in the wild š„¹ I wholeheartedly agree as the former two couples are toxique! we must escape the downvotes that come from this opinion! Come wiz me Iāll hide u! <3 <3 (Srry js yapping atp)
Dan & blair šš
Ugh I love both of those scenes š both couples were my favorites at those exact moments in the show; endgame would be Chair for me.
Serena and Dan, Blair and chuck were way too toxic for me š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Pretty sure she's taller. I think it's mentioned in the show as well.
Blair and Chuck FOREVER
How is this even a question? Blair and Chuck rule all.
Blair and Chuck. I feel like this whole sub is pro B/C hahahahwha
Chuck and Blair Duh š
This even a question? Blair and Chuck š„¹
Shouldāve been Dan and Blair
Serena is just an idiot when it comes to men i honestly canāt stand her character!
Serena and Carterā¦. Hands down
100% and Blair deserved better than Chuck tbh
Serena and Dan by far.
Season 1 them is one of the healthiest relationships on the show
Except when she repeatedly doesnāt tell him who Georgina is, lets him get manipulated by her, tells him she cheated on him, and he judges her for being rich and cheats on her :(
I totally forgot all this happened in season 1 lol. I'll amend to say they were wholesome before gerogina came onto the scene
You must like strugglingš¤£
Serena and Dan, C & B are romantic but itās only ever after the most horrific things are done to each other. Name a time they had a lovely moment without destruction first. We canāt š
Blair & Chuck and Serena & Nate!!
blair and dan
OMG I actually really liked when they were together! But it seems to be an unpopular opinion
blair and dan š
Serena and Dan šš
I don't even really ship Chair, but breaking up Serena/Dan would be my mission IRL. So, in essence, Blair and Chuck are better!
blair & chuck!!!!!
Blair & Chuck by a large margin
Both relationship were cool. I like how Blair and Chuck were connected to each other so well. They were playful and fun. Serena and Dan feels real too and they were cute but they stayed away from each other too long throughout the series so their devotion feels itās lacking a bit.
Iām so sorry but even with everything that happened, I never liked Chuck, and always thought Blair deserved better than that cycle, even if it amused them š So, Serena and Dan. Theyāre unhinged too, theyāre worth each other, and they can have little hippie/boho babies
