Dan and Blair were soulmates, they understand each other in every level, they care for each other in a way that no one does, she is fully happy only with him and he is happy only with her. Their relationship is the description of the pure love that is romantic, protective, nourishing, fun and beautiful. I liked Dan and Serena before and when I first watched it I wanted them to end up together, however after re watching the show, the only real relationship Dan had, was with Blair because she challenged him to be better, mature and she brought the best in him. Blair with him was beautiful, smart, safe and loved.
their relationship was the healthiest and the most solid compared to others. I cant believe they decided to have blair choosing chuck over dan and then make dan the villain of the show
@@alboshqipo237 In the first two seasons, it was a critique of the elite and then the audience and the writers became attached to the characters and since many writers aren’t aware that your protagonists can be UNLIKEABLE people, they give unnecessary redemption arcs. NOT EVERYONE NEEDS A REDEMPTION ARC
If only Blair could love Dan as much as he loved her, they were the only non-toxic couple, they were real, Chuck and Blair looked great together but that’s it, they just understand each other in the bed, they even made me cringe sometimes where they always were like not ready, they’re magnetic bla bla, the perfect end for Chair was in Paris in that station
What Chuck and Blair had was *not* the great love they claimed to have, it was desperate love, that's all. I blame television itself that Chair didn't work out - they had to create too many conflict to keep the relationship interesting and it got boring. It's the same thing again and again and again: Chuck has family problems, Blair rushes in to help, Chuck shuts her out, Blair tries to move on, Chuck works out his own issues and trusts Blair again, but Chuck wants to wait, he needs to be a better man before actually gets into a relationship with Blair, Blair moves on, Chuck has family problems, Blair drops everything she earned and rushes back to Chuck to help him, Chuck shuts her out... They love each other *because* they need each other when they are desperate and lost. They loved each other through all that and it's beautiful but there is nothing great about that love. Dair on the other hand has something fresh, it's genuine, it's real, it's not destiny or fate, it's not a fairy tale, it's simple and pure. It's refreshing and new and exciting! They don't only have the "right" love Blair deserves but it is a "great" love. They love each other *and* they need each other. They help each other grow. They want the best for each other, they only want the other person to be happy. They have their fair share of obstacles like Louis and Serena and Chuck and basically everyone in the whole show. Everyone doubted them, but they stood by each othe even though no one believed they would love each other like the did. They have the perfect balance of similarities and differences to keep things smooth and easy but interesting and exciting. They have passion as well. Chair is magnetic but so is Dair. They couldn't stop themselves from kissing each other even when they didn't want to admit they are madly in love with each other. Chuck and Blair were good together, but Dan and Blair were even better.
Preach. I like the buildup to the Dan n blair, they began to understand each other and was there for each other. I really thought they would end up tgt tho.
Thank Chair is a TOXIC CHEMICAL relationship with no end in their games but Dair is the ENDGAME Dan was hurt by her choice of Chuck 🤦🏻♂️😡 she didn’t show no emotion about it afterwards
OK seriously i dont even watch the show but all that noise that was made about chuckandblair made me curios and i have watched the both couples and i have to say that i have fallen in love with this couple more than the chair they are just sooooo ADORABLW :D
Dair felt real, two people that get to know each other and become friends, time goes by and they fell in love...and their relation looked really cute (i like chair but their are toxic af)
Dan got the "2nd male lead syndrome". its ok for me because everyone knows that the 2nd love interest is always the TRUE ONE. they are both similar and opposite, it's almost perfect
dan supporting blair and helping her after the accident is what really solidified their relationship to me. she says she can’t get married in that dress and he doesn’t even question it, doesn’t try to convince her otherwise, just supports and understands her. and the way that frequently throughout the show, blair is too proud to let herself be vulnerable with others but more often than not, she seeks out dan for advice or just to talk, let’s him see the most vulnerable sides of her. it’s something special.
I love dan and Blair but my least favorite scene was they’re first kiss. I don’t know I just felt there was nothing there. But everything after that was amazing.
I don't get why people hated their relationship. frenemies to friends to lovers was so well done here. They had such a healthy chemistry and their previous relationships were so toxic. They were actually healthy and helped each other get better and understood one other more than any of their previous partners.
I saw the grizzly movie. It traumatized me. When I heard they were playing with the ides of my Dan and my Blair together I said they better treat this with tenderness because they’re my faves.
my best ship on the show ı hate chuck and blair is cringe sometimes and dan is my fav ı was shocked when they happened and ı was really happy they had a great friendship before that but when they broke up blair hated dan again like nothing happend it was suck
Hey can you please help me? I'm watching gossip girl right now and, frankly, now I'm doing it only for that couple. I know about the ending and I really don't want to see their downfall, so maybe you can tell me on which episode it would be better for me to stop watching, while they're still together and okay?
As much as I love Blair she wasn’t good for Dan, Blair and Chuck may have had a toxic relationship but they truly loved each other. Dair however wasn’t as strong because Blair still loved chuck. Yes dan may have only loved Blair but it was obvious that she still held deep feelings for chuck, loving someone who actually loves somebody else will eventually drive you mad. Dan had his life pretty put together while Blair had many issues, that’s why chair made each other stronger and developed into a beautiful relationship. I’m not saying chair was a good or healthy relationship because they certainly weren’t, but you cannot deny their love for each other.
Blair had many issues, and many of them were because of Chuck or things that Chuck would've made worse. Dan was able to balance Blair's world and bring normalcy to her life while still being her best self: the kind that was able to thrive using her intelligence while having intelligent conversations with an equal.
@@cijju5004 It was not only good, bit it was everything that Dan needed. Blair challenged him to succeed, to be a better man and to be fully in love. Blair was his soulmate. Chuck abused with her, manipulated and belittled her all the time. Blair was the shining empty shell with Chuck, while with Dan was the whole, beautiful and amazing one.
Chuck and Blair never connected intellectually like Dan and Blair. Chuck and Blair - took each other for granted. Dan supported and tried ending her toxicity and schemes and he was so close. Dan and Blair arc is because they were supposed to be the endgame but writers anyway wanted Chuck to end up with a girl so yeah. Chuck and Blair started great turned out boring but ending made quite okayish.
See, no. This is what Gossip Girl did wrong... they sold of co-dependency that Blair developed with Chuck as "true love" or "destiny". If anything he knew how to keep her at his side, and their whole relationship, while it may have seemed to evolved, was always based on lies and manipulations and power plays. With such a foundation you can't build anything real or true. Their constant "draw to each other" is the co-dependency no less, no more. Blair loved Dan to the fullest, and Dan even saw how Chuck always pulled Blair back in. Unfortunately he couldn't get through to her because you can't just get rid of co-dependency that quickly. If they had just let Dan and Blair be (them being Serena and Chuck) then they could've built a life together eventually.
I have nothing agaianst chuck best character development out of all of them but the show got super utterly flop and suck when they broke up like what the F
They rushed it and he ended up being just a rebound. Season 5 should have been about their friendship and then season 6, they should have been endgame.
Blair was my favorite character. She persevere through a-lot of sh.. Nate, Dan, Louis and Chuck put her through. My kind of girl. Glad to see her use her Girlpower on the show. In the end she got her man and happy life. She deserved her happiness. Blair made this show worth watching. Best TV series ever invented! ❤️👏🌟
