This post was originally published in January 2016, and we’re putting it in front of your lucky eyeballs today in case you missed it the first time! \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Like any normal person, I’ve been known to unleash a veritable tsunami of happy tears because my favorite fictional characters started \u00a0kissing. But for every relationship that overcomes five seasons’ \u00a0worth of trials and tribulations and sexy tension, there’s another that has been here all along. \u00a0Rock solid. Steady. Always ready and willing to serve as a contrast to \u00a0the rollercoaster of emotion that was Ross and Rachel<\/a> or Luke and Lorelei<\/a>.<\/p>\n These aren’t the ships we deserve, but they’re the ones we need right now<\/a>. \u00a0And I think it’s about damn time they were acknowledged.<\/p>\n Molly and Arthur Weasley from Harry Potter<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The world operates on certain unyielding principles. Birds fly, tacos are great, and Molly and Arthur Weasley are a married force to be reckoned with<\/a>. If anything had \u00a0happened to either of these two lovebirds \u00a0(looking at you, Nagini), it would have been like ripping my heart out and setting it on fire. They lived \u00a0through two wizarding wars together, for Dumbledore’s sake. Molly says they were made for each other. Arthur calls her “Mollywobbles.” \u00a0They’re so cute they’re disgusting. I’m \u00a0obsessed with them.<\/a><\/p>\n Sookie St. James and Jackson Belleville<\/a> from Gilmore Girls<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n While Lorelai was waffling about with Christopher and Luke and decidedly not<\/em> taking my telepathic “PICK LUKE OR YOU’RE DEAD TO ME” advice, Sookie and Jackson were busy being the best of all couples. \u00a0Exhibit A:<\/p>\n Jackson: I think we should get married. Bob and Linda Belcher from Bob’s Burgers<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Bob and Linda recently broke new ground by being the cutest couple<\/a> to ever run a burger joint \u00a0together. What’s so great about Bob and Linda (I’m working on making Blinda happen, but so far no dice) is that they’re a TEAM. An equal partnership. They love their kids and they’re great parents, aside from the occasional \u00a0crap attack<\/a>.<\/p>\n Nomi Marks and Amanita from \u00a0Sense8<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Nomi and Amanita are the standard to \u00a0which I measure all past, present, and future relationships. (By “future,” I mean when I’m inevitably dating Aaron Tveit. By “present,” I mean the unspoken thing I have with the guy who delivers my pizza.) Nomi is a transgender lesbian hacktivist and Amanita works in a bookstore, \u00a0and together they are a wholly badass duo of authority problems, social justice, and psychedelic hair.<\/p>\n Nani \u00a0Pelekai and David Kawena from Lilo & Stitch<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n At first glance, David is just some unassuming surfer dude who accidentally sets everything on fire at Nani’s luau job. (What lasting relationship \u00a0hasn’t<\/em> started with everything being on fire?) But while \u00a0Nani is the sole breadwinner for herself and Lilo, David remains patient and supportive, and he understands that Lilo is priority \u00a0#1. And he doesn’t really even bat an eye when they adopt Stitch, the world’s weirdest-looking alien dog-thing.<\/p>\n Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang<\/a> from the \u00a0Harry Potter <\/em>series<\/strong><\/p>\n When we think of Cedric and Cho, we tend to think of things like Cedric’s sultry “It’s not a bad place for a bath” line and the bout of word diarrhea that was Harry’s Yule Ball proposal to Cho. But the reason I think these two deserve more accolades is because they were just two kids in love\u2014young rival Seekers who made something beautiful together before it was tragically torn asunder by Voldemort.<\/p>\n Cam Tucker and Mitchell Pritchett from Modern Family<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Cam and Mitch were \u00a0the most married couple on this list even before same-sex marriage became legal \u00a0in California and they able to get \u00a0blessedly, disastrously married in the midst of a wildfire evacuation. I live for their mockumentary-style interview segments.<\/a> Example:<\/p>\n Cam: We don’t love pink. Morticia and Gomez Addams<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Morticia and Gomez flat-out loved and respected each other; they didn’t fall victim to the overused pop culture stereotype of “marriage = THE END OF ALL THINGS,” and they didn’t care that the rest of the world viewed them as unconventional outcasts. \u00a0If I don’t wind up with a \u00a0relationship \u00a0like the Addams’, then I want \u00a0a refund.<\/p>\n Who’s your favorite underrated ship? We’re partial to Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, because OBVIOUSLY.<\/a> \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This post was originally published in January 2016, and we’re putting it in front of your lucky eyeballs today in case you missed it the first time! \u00a0 Like any normal person, I’ve been known continue reading<\/span>
