Due to suggestions from my esteemed friends and siblings, I have decided to make a second all-time favorite couple list which includes all the great romances I forgot to include in my first post. So here it is, the one you've all been waiting for this past day... Dun dun duhhhnnn.... FAVORITE COUPLES OF ALL TIME PART 2!!!
- Ron and Hermione (Harry Potter series)
- Two people who were always meant to be, from the first disgusted "And you are?" Ron and Hermione are two best friends who fell in love, even though their first impressions of each other gave no indication of the great romance to come. She thought he was stupid, gross, and mean, and he thought that she was a haughty know-it-all who just liked to show off. There was some truth to their impressions, but as they spent time together, worried about Harry together, and fought off evil wizards together, their friendship turned into something more. And that's why we love this story. After all, isn't it what we all hope for?
- Danielle and Henry (Ever After)
- The classic Cinderella/Prince Charming story, but with a more believable twist. In this case, Cinderella (Danielle DeBabarac) is a strong-minded, independent servant girl who poses as a courtier, and Prince Charming (Henry) is a future ruler who wants to do anything but sit on the throne. The two meet, argue, and fall in love. He is struck by her wit and passion, and she is struck by his unexpected depth and desire to be better than he is. Then, it is all torn apart by misunderstanding, fear, hurt, and scheming stepmothers, only to be rekindled in the most wonderful of fashions. The story of the love between Henry and Danielle is one that is fraught with equal measures of peril and joy, and that is what makes it great
- Ricky and Lucy (I Love Lucy)
- They made us laugh. They made us cry. They made us laugh some more. Ricky and Lucy Ricardo form what is probably the most famous TV couple of all time. They were loving, playful, they sang and danced and tried to escape their obnoxious neighbors. These two had it all, made even better by the fact that Desi and Lucy were married in real life.
- Carl and Ellie (Up)
- For those who have seen this movie, I honestly don't have to say anything. You know. For those who haven't seen it, they should watch it. At least the first five minutes, which is where the bulk of this gripping, wordless love story takes place. It is a story of the ultimate adventure of real life and real love, which will simply tear your heart to little pieces and make you weep tears of equal measure joy and sorrow. It really is that great. One of my favorite romances of all time. And definitely better than Twilight.
- Sam and Katherine (Holes)
- What can I say, this is an impossible wonderful love torn asunder by awfully cruel people. It is a story of overcoming barriers, of a love that is kind and strong, and a tragedy of near-epic proportions. I seriously cry every time. And Sam's iconic "I can fix that," has nearly reached the same level as Westley's "As you wish" as far as melting the heart of every female watching the movie or reading the book. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present Sam and Kissin' Kate Barlow!!
- Kim and Ron (Kim Possible)
- Pretty much the relationship for anyone who watched Disney Channel during the early 2000s. Kim and Ron were best friends for an eternity, ever since preschool, and as the years went by they stayed best friends in spite of the social barriers between them. Kim became the uber-popular crime-fighting cheerleader, and Ron stayed... Well, Ron stayed true to himself, at least. But everyone who watched the show was waiting and praying that someday they would realize their feelings for each other. And finally, it came. The kiss. The biggest friend-zone in television history had been broken, and true love had triumphed again!
- Amy and Rory (Doctor Who)

- Amy and Rory... So much heartache, so much anxiety, and so much awesomeness has never before been contained in a couple. They find each other, lose each other, break each other's hearts, and somehow end up with the most amazing family the world has ever known. He has searched galaxies, fought off armies, and waited 2,000 years for her. She loved him with all of her might, even brining him back from the dead more than once. And she gave this speech to her baby, which made us - well, me - forgive her for any past uncertainties about the strength of her love for her man: "I wish I could tell you that you'll be loved, that you'll be safe, and cared for, and protected, but this isn't the time for lies. What you are going to be, Melody, is very, very brave. But not as brave as they all have to be, because there's somebody coming. I don't know where he is, or what he's doing, but trust me: he's on his way. There's a man who's never going to let us down, and not even an army can get in the way. He's the last of his kind. He looks young, but he's lived for hundreds and hundreds of years. And wherever they take you, Melody, however scared you are, I promise you, you will never be alone, because this man is your father. He has a name, but the people of our world know him better... as The Last Centurion." Like I said, epic.
- Eowyn and Faramir (Lord of the Rings)

- Probably the only couple who could beat Amy and Rory in terms of awesomeness. These two just make my heart sing with happiness - more than Arwen and Aragorn, actually. It totally makes sense that the strong, sad Faramir would fall for the strong, sad shieldmaiden of Rohan. Sadly, the movies sort of ignore it except for a two-second shot. But here's a quote from the books that shows a little bit of their relationship: "'It reminds me of Numenor,' said Faramir, and wondered to hear himself speak.' 'Of Numenor?' said Eowyn. 'Yes,' said Faramir, 'of the land of Westernesse that foundered, and of the great dark wave climbing over the green lands and above the hills, and coming on, darkness unescapable. I often dream of it.' 'Then you think that the Darkness is coming?' said Eowyn. 'Darkness Unescapable?' And suddenly she drew close to him. 'No,' said Faramir, looking at her face. 'It was but a picture in the mind. I do not know what is happening. The reason of my waking mind tells me that great evil has befallen and we stand at the end of days. But my heart says nay; and all my limbs are light, and a hope and joy are come to me that no reason can deny. Eowyn, Eowyn, White Lady of Rohan, in this hour I do not believe that any darkness will endure!' And he stooped and kissed her brow. And so they stood on the walls of the City of Gondor, and a great wind rose and blew, and their hair, raven and golden, streamed out mingling in the air." -J.R.R. Tolkien
