Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey (Fifty Shades of Grey)
I guess this is me admitting that I have read The Fifty Shades of Grey… (I may or may not have seen the movies as well… in theaters…) I think everyone at this point knows that there are so many problems with this relationship. It is a toxic relationship and both parties involved completely suck and are so boring to read about!
Travis and Abby (Beautiful Disaster)
Another toxic relationship. These characters brought out the worst in each other and I was hoping that they would realize that fact but no…
Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley (Harry Potter series)
This is going to be controversial but I could not stand Harry and Ginny together! I just do not buy in to it! I have said it before and I will say it again- Harry should have ended up with Luna Lovegood!
Katniss and Peeta (The Hunger Games)
Come on! She did not love Peeta! I was 100% team Gale! She only chooses Peeta because she blames Gale for what happened to Prim! If it wasn’t something she could get over than she should have just been alone and not settled for Peeta!
Rory Gilmore and Dean (Gilmore Girls)
I liked Dean at first but then no… just no! I am for sure #teamjess! I would even pick Logan over Dean! When I rewatch the series I have to skip the episode where Rory and Dean sleep together because it pisses me off so much!
Please do this tag if any couples came to your mind! I would love to see your answers!
#TeamGale!! I’m so glad there’s another person who feels the same way. I didn’t like Peeta at all — Gale is way more interesting (and better looking). I love the shipping of Harry and Luna! I hadn’t thought about it before, but I think I agree. I never liked Harry/Ginny, but also don’t like the idea of Harry/Hermione.
Yes! Gale has so much more depth than boring Peeta!
I am so glad that Harry and Hermoine are not together. I like her with Ron!
I hated Harry and Ginny in the movies, but I love them in the books, mainly because Ginny’s character is so much better in the books! Harry and Luna is such an interesting match, I never would have thought it. As for Katniss, I think she should have ended up alone, both of them were wrong for her, meaning she didn’t really love any of them! ALSO, DEAN IS THE WORST, #TEAMJESS 4EVER! This was a really fun post!
It is so true. Ginny is definitely better in the books!
I would have been happy if Katniss ended up alone. It is definitely more fitting to her character.
Ugh Dean!!!!
#TEAMPEETA all the way!!! He’s the only other person who could actually understand the horrors she’s gone through. Gale was purely lust.
(can you tell I have strong feelings still five years later)
Haha I think I lot of people still have strong feelings!! I kind of wish she ended up alone honestly. Peeta deserves someone who isn’t settling for him!
You’re right, Peeta is the best, but I definitely think Katniss loved him. Maybe not AS strongly as he loved her but he almost idolized her. She loved him pretty fiercely, even sacrificing her own life for his, so I don’t think she was just settling.
LOL your picks! I have to say, I like Harry and Ginny but I have to say I’m intrigued with Harry and Luna. I oculd have been behind that one. (I thought you were going to say Harry and Hermione and I don’t like that pairing. I thought it was awesome that they had a pure true friendship only relationship. We need more of those in fiction between a boy and a girl.)
Also,Dean so sucked after the first season. Definitely Team Jess here.
I would have hated if Harry and Hermoine ended up together. That would just be too obvious! I love her with Ron.❤︎
Dean is the worst. Season one Dean was great though!
I agree! Ron and Hermione were perfect.
hell yes!!! forever and ever and ever #teamjess ❤️❤️❤️
😍😍😍
Harry and Luna are an…interesting ship. I never would’ve thought of it. I feel like the romance aspect in Harry Potter definitely needed some work, I’m not a huge fan of any of the pairings. They needed more hints/foreshadowing for me.
Thanks for doing my tag! I was kind of worried that it was dead. 😅
It is a great tag!
I totally agree about the foreshadowing. There was no buildup or chemistry in any of the relationships and that is what I love to read about!
Oh my gosh yes. Peeta was just not right for Katniss and Dean was sooooo very definitely wrong for Rory. *cringe* He was such a cute and pure first boyfriend though, how did he go so wrong? #teamjess! I also think that Harry and Ginny weren’t right. I wouldn’t exactly ship him with Luna though.
Just thinking about Dean makes me mad! I feel like they ruined his character!
Would Harry have been better off alone? I wasn’t really invested in any of the Harry Potter relationships!
Ikr!
I don’t know about Harry, being alone, because that seems kind of sad, but I can’t think of anyone who was really right for him. Though I do thinK the whole Draco and Harry ending up together idea is kind of sweet. XD
That would have been great!
TEAM GALE FOR THE WIN. I never liked Peeta much anyway, and I hateddddd him and Katniss together
Yes!! They don’t make sense together!!
Hahaha! I loved this! 😀 I love that you included Gilmore Girls! 😀 Ha oh gosh Dean was so boringggg once they introduced Jess, and I have to admit I’m 100% #teamjess although I hate Logan so much that I would pick Dean over him #sorrynotsorry! I still can’t believe she was sleeping with him in the revival uhhhhhh.
I completely forgot about Christian and Ana! That was a crappy relationship, and yes I’ve read the books too… even the book in Christian’s pov 😛
I can get down with Harry and Luna. Ginny was never my favourite character so I wasn’t exactly thrilled when they got together. Great answers! 😀
I actually like Logan just not for Rory! I couldn’t believe she was sleeping with him! Then again she never made great decisions when it came to men!
I read the one in Christians POV too 😑
Thank you!!
HA! I couldn’t agree more, Rory made some interesting decisions!
Oh haha! Well now I don’t feel so alone! I felt like I was the only one who read it! 😛
You’re welcome! 🙂
I also didn’t really ship Harry and Ginny. Luna and Harry would have been so much more interesting, although I haven’t really thought of it before. 😀
I’m just curious what there relationship would be like! I have never read fanfiction but I wonder if there is any about them out there!
I haven’t either. But I would love to see some!
