Valentine’s Day: Favorite Fictional Couples!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

I know that everyone has different opinions and feelings about the holiday alllll about love. I know I hated it when I was single, pretended I was super above it in my old relationship because that’s what my ex thought and now, I just sort of use it as an excuse to have a fun date with my husband. This V-Day is our first one celebrating as a married couple and I’m excited to spend the day with him.

Regardless of what your feelings are about this holiday, I think we can all agree that we LOVE to celebrate the love and relationships between our favorite fictional characters. We love to ship them together, we love to watch as they go through ups and downs, in the hopes that, in the end, love will triumph and we’ll get to see them live happily ever after. And yes, I do love to see the steamy scenes between my favorite couples because the build up was there the whole time and the wait was so worth it.

So today I’m sharing some of my FAVORITE fictional couples. Make sure you share your own in the comments!

Fictional Girl Crushes I Had Growing Up (AKA How Did I Not Realize I Was Queer AF)

I came out nearly ten years ago, on this blog, as bisexual. I’m so comfortable in my sexuality and my ability to love and be attracted to any person, regardless of their gender. I was scrolling through social media a few days ago and there was a post about the anniversary of one of my favorite movies growing up, A League of their Own, and I remembered my absolute obsession with the character of Kit and it was another lightbulb out of many lightbulbs that I’ve had over the years where I realize, oh…you had a crush on that character! I often will bring it up to my husband and we both have a laugh, always saying, “how did I not know that I was into girls too?!”

So I wanted to share a few of my fictional crushes from my childhood that really should have convinced me, should have been obvious to me that I was SO queer. This list doesn’t even begin to touch on everyone I had a crush on because, partly, I’m old and can’t remember and partly because I remember more and more as time goes on!

Let’s do this!
