Of all the terrible relationships featured in the show, I have to go with Chuck and Blair as the absolute worst. I don't have anything new to say about all the reasons Chuck and Blair are terrible for each other. It's all been dicho before - they had nothing substantial in common, Chuck was abusive, Blair was manipulative, their entire relationship was built on a power struggle, their personalities clashed, and the only thing that really held them together was their sexual chemistry, which I'll admit, was pretty incredible in the beginning. But good sex is nowhere near enough to keep a broken relationship together and is definitely not a valid reason for staying in an unhealthy one. Contrary to childish, misguided beliefs, their misery does not make them epic. It makes them doomed, and I don't understand why that's supposed to be romantic. As a huge fan of Blair, I want to see her happy. She deserves to be loved and treated well and that is something Chuck can never give her (a fact that they have both admitted to each other and their friends). Whether o not tu agree with Dan and Blair as a couple, there's no denying that he gives her that happiness. He gave her the strength to stand up to her mother, made her aware of her true potential, and has helped her see that she's worth más than a hotel building o a dowry. She's not a means to an end for him...she's everything, and that's exactly what she deserves. As much as I dislike Chuck, I also want him to find happiness in the end . For a long time, it seemed like it wasn't possible for Chuck to be happy, but after five seasons, it's become clear that he's más than capable of it - as long as he is away from Blair. When he's not dwelling on her, he is successful and even generous at times. Without her, he grows as a person. But the moment she re-enters his world, he reverts back to the selfish, lying, abusive version of himself and his world falls apart all over again. Despite multiple tries at making it work, Chuck and Blair were incapable of achieving a happy, healthy relationship full of trust and genuine respect - which is what all lasting relationships are built on. I say Chair is the worst couple, not just because I ship them with other people o because I want to spit in the face of Chair fans (I really hate ship wars), but because I believe no one should value themselves so little that they settle for staying in a destructive o degrading relationship, and that's the message this mostrar needs to put out there. True amor brings out the best in people, and that's something that simply can't be dicho of Chair and is why I hope the writers will finally bury that relationship once and for all so that both of the characters can mover on and find the ones who will make them happy.
