8 On-Screen Couples Who You Wish Dated In Real Life

Because you know that you were emotionally invested in at least one fictitious couple in your life.

Even if you don't watch tons of movies like I do, there's at least one movie couple that you wish would've ended up together in real life. Here's a list of celebrities who's on-screen chemistry was so hot that they convinced you they were destined for each other.

1. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens

Shortly after "High School Musical" was released, it also came out that Zac and Vanessa were together in real life. This was the best news you could have gotten like a seven-year-old who was obsessed with the Wildcat couple. But two years after "High School Musical 3: Senior Year" was released, the couple split. Our hearts broke and "We're All in This Together" played in the background for days.

2. Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort

Even though these two never dated outside of their movie roles, their young love caught our eyes and our hearts. "The Fault in Our Stars" came out only three years ago in 2014, which means that the teenaged audience it was meant for definitely knew better than to hope for their real-life love. But, we can hope, right?

3. Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet


These two are the real couple that never was. Leo and Kate played Jack and Rose on "Titanic." While they both had roles in movies previous, this movie was Leo and Kate's breakout movie, and they became huge stars after the movie hit the box office. Their friendship is still something that is talked about today, and the two are still asked why they never dated. The only thing more tragic than the two not falling in love is that fact that neither of them won an Oscar for their roles.

4. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey

"How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days" is the ULTIMATE chick flick and the perfect sleepover go-to. So obviously, since you've seen the movie about a billion times, it's only normal for you to be so invested in the two's love life. Even though they have never dated, the two of them have also starred in "Fool's Gold" and they're on screen chemistry cannot be denied.

5. Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen

I can't write an article about love stories and not include my favorite of all time, "Pride and Prejudice" is a timeless classic. Keira and Matthew's love/hate relationship with each other is full of misunderstandings and family feuds, but no matter how much they despise each other, they can't seem to stay away. That's what makes it so sad that Keira and Matthew never dated, but went on and acted together in many more movies.

6. Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone

"La La Land" was a fantastic musical that followed the love story of Sebastian and Mia, and their love for acting and jazz music. As if the ending were not devastating enough, these two have never dated away from the camera. They can also be seen in "Crazy, Stupid, Love" where, you guessed it, they are also in love.

7. Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick

Even though it is not a movie, "Gossip Girl's" Blair and Chuck are an iconic couple of our time. This couple's determination to end up together won us over, and every girl wants to find her Chuck Bass. These two fit together so well on screen; we wish they'd have just realized that off-screen as well.

8. Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski

I saved the best for that, obviously. Jim and Pam were the ultimate goals in "The Office." Jim's love for Pam is heart-warming, and their quirky couple ways make us all hope for something as perfect as them one day. Jenna and John never dated but they were the best of friends off-screen.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
