Let's be honest, as college students, one of our most devoted relationships has always been with Netflix. See, Netflix doesn't think you're clingy when you want to hang out for 12 plus hours; it's always making an effort to surprise you by changing its monthly lineup. And best of all, it won't judge you for wearing sweatpants and eating a family size pack of Cheetos all by yourself. Therefore, it is safe to say that Netflix is probably the most fun $8.99 a month will get you (and we're totally OK with that).
But the more devoted you get with Netflix, the more engrossed you seem to become in the shows you watch. For me, personally, I feel a connection unlike any other when I'm on my latest season binge watch. So if there's one thing I've learned from hours of intense and loyal "practice," it's that a Netflix relationship are #Goals.
So here's a list of 10 Netflix relationships we've all wished we had...
10. Johnny and Theresa
("Sirens")
This relationship has even the most unromantic people wanting more. The partnership between Theresa and Johnny is undeniable, and it's nice to see relationships where both parties are bada--. Plus, the competition between them is a lesson you can learn as being a major key to a great relationship.
9. Steve and Food
("Fuller House")
Need I say more? Find yourself a significant other that looks at you the way Steve looks at food.
8. Bob and Linda
("Bob's Burgers")
This relationship may remind you a bit of your parents, but the humor has you craving more. Bob and Linda always find themselves getting into the craziest of situations, and if that doesn't spark your adventurous side, then I'm not sure what will. Plus, who doesn't want a relationship where you can have a burger anytime time of the day?
7. Haley and Nathan
("One Tree Hill")
This relationship represents everything you would want in a high school relationship. Both the drama on-and-off the courts kept you entangled in the mess that is "young love."
6. Ross and Rachel
("Friends")
What won you over with Ross and Rachels relationship was the friend aspect preceding the relationship. Of course, guys and girls can just be friends, but the alluring question of what could happen if they were more than friends was answered oh so perfectly by Ross and Rachel relationship. Plus you can't help but wish you too had a friend group as cool as theirs.
5. Meredith and Derek
("Grey's Anatomy")
This couple takes the cake when it comes to having it all. Not only are you so amazed by the unconditional love that Meredith and Derek exhibit for each other, but the fact that they make it through the hardest struggles gives you hope for finding your "person." Plus, did I mention they are both doctors?
4. Leslie Knope and Ben Wyatt
("Parks and Recreation")
Imagine your first relationship in Kindergarten — add some waffles and a government job, and then you have Ben and Leslie's relationship. What makes you wanting more from these two goofballs is the fun loving behavior they both exhibit. Not only is Ben and Leslie head-over-heels for each other, but they never think twice about giving back to anyone who needs help.
3. Pam and Jim
("The Office")
No two TV characters have ever deserved each other more. The wholesome relationship that Jim and Pam have is unlike anything you've ever experienced. In this day and age it is so easy to get caught up in simply "hooking up," that it is refreshing to see a couple that goes out of their way to show the other how much each truly matters to the next.
2. Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf
("Gossip Girl")
True love and designer fashion? Who wouldn't want to have a relationship like this. Blair and Chuck are one of a kind because they started out as enemies, but somewhere between making power moves and using manipulation tactics, the two fell in love. Now the bond is stronger than ever and it's them against the world. Happily ever after much?
1. Frank and Claire Underwood
("House of Cards")
Now this relationship easily takes first place because it has so many dimensions. Not only are Claire and Frank bound by holy matrimony, but they are accountability partners. See, the Underwoods are more than simply husband and wife. They go a step beyond everyone else because the understand that without each other they are able to accomplish nothing. Frank and Claire quench the thirst of even the most power hungry romantics out there, by simply pledging an allegiance to each other. This deep seeded loyalty trumps all mushy gushy love stories, because at the end of their's they always end up on top.
From high school to medical school, to White House-- Netflix has a spectrum of relationships to follow, all of which we fall deeper in love with by the season. So take off your makeup, and grab all the junk food you own-- you have a date with Netflix (and I'm guessing this one's gonna be an all-nighter)
