All hail the queen of scandalous TV series. That’s right, "Gossip Girl" here (I’ve always wanted to say that). One of the most iconic TV shows of the mid 21st century made girls everywhere tingle with delight when they heard the phrase, “I’m Chuck Bass.” And simultaneously cringe when they heard Blair Waldorf comment on last years Tory Burch flats. Somehow throughout the series, Chuck and Blair’s equally strong personality’s clash but tie together in the most incredible love story besides Romeo and Juliet, except with less dead people. Their love taught me some things I never thought id learn from a television show.
1. Love doesn’t always come easy.
If anyone knows this, it’s Chuck and Blair. They dealt with more cheating, lying, and scandal than any one on the show. From Chuck’s crazy dad to Blair’s almost marriage to a lunatic royal, they pushed through it all to be together. And that wasn’t even the half of it.
2. Love doesn’t always come natural.
This was bad....
Let us reminisce on Season 1 Chuck Bass. He made being a perv look easy. And not to talk about how wack his fashion sense was. Completely not Blair Waldorf material. What eventually drew them together was their love of medaling in other people’s lives. How romantic.
3. Love can make you do crazy things.
Remember when Chuck disappeared in Europe for a summer? Yeah, neither does he. And when Blair went wild with Carter Baizen after one of their many break ups? That was a little scary for me to see poised Blair turn into crazy, ruin her old life Blair.
4. Love knows no bounds.
The whole Blair, Prince Louie, Chuck’s baby situation. Super rough time. When Chuck and Blair finally decide to be with each other and raise their child, tragedy strikes. The car wreck was an episode that caused many hearts to break, including mine. When Blair lost the baby and Chuck almost died, tears were shed.
5. Love always wins!
I'm sorry. I'm just obsessed.
In the end, Chuck and Blair get married in a small wedding while Chuck is being chased by the cops, in true Bass form. I could talk about Blair’s dress for ages. There are people on this earth that are just meant to be, like Chuck and Blair.
Yes, I will always be waiting for my very own Chuck Bass. Minus the drama and scandal. Like I said before, it’s seriously crazy what you can learn from a tv show, especially about love. Don’t you just love love?
