Dan versus Chuck is the classic good guy versus bad boy.
Chuck is your escape and Dan is the guy that saves you.
Blair temporarily lost her mind.
Gossip Girl
My guess is she wanted to finally get back at Serena for taking Nates virginity.
That is the only way I can rationalize Blair Waldorf dating Humdrum Humphrey.
Sorry not sorry, Stephanie Savage, this was the worst storyline ever.
I do not buy it.
Whenever I rewatchGossip Girl, I start at episode seven, not the pilot.
I start watching the second Chuck deflowered Blair in the limo.
The show does not even start for me until Chuck and Blair are together.
Chuck was her epic love.
The one you made mistakes for.
The love that is unexplainable.
The love that takes everything from you and gives you everything at the same time.
The one that is effortless and impossible.
The love that made the strongest girl vulnerable.
What we have is a great love.
He is your shoulder to cry on.
He is the boy from Brooklyn who helps you with your Lit paper.
He is convenient, he is comfortable, he is safe.
You shouldnt settle for safe.
Even when Serena described Dan as the love of her life, she admitted she took him for granted.
He judges everyone yet he desperately wants to be best friends with them.
Dan demeans all his peers for their birthright privileges.
He became obsessed with the hot girl who said hi to him once and she didnt even remember it.
Who is the shallow one now, Dan?
You called her the love of your life, but you never even knew her.
What you hate about them is also what you love about them.
There is a fine line between love and hate.
The opposite of love isnt hate, it is indifference.
A little part of me actually enjoys Blair and Chucks hating moments over their loving ones.
Am I the only one who finds their war to be great foreplay?
The hate passion is real.
Dan treated her right and that is all he has.
He is nice on paper and nothing more.
He is not forbidden.
He is not dangerous.
He does not make her feel anything.
He loves her for who she is, but this is not enough to complete her.
I love you so much it consumes me.Blair Waldorf to Chuck Bass
A bad boy is a challenge.
He is a puzzle.
He is nothing without his problems.
The satisfaction in fixing him is at a high.
It is a rush that consumes you.
The whole fun is overcoming every challenge together.
It is that on top of the world unbeatable feeling.
That is what makes you Bonnie and Clyde, partners in crime, equals.
Stronger with each other than alone.
Chuck is Blairs weakness and her strength.
Yet the vulnerability Chuck brings Blair is not weakness at all, it is truth.
I am sorry for losing my temper the night you told me Louis proposed to you.
I am sorry for not waiting longer at the Empire State Building.
Im sorry for treating you like property.
Im sorry I didnt tell you I loved you when I knew I did.
This is the moment every girl waits for.
The truth is finally screaming.
You have told us we were right and you were wrong.
In the past, Chuck hid his emotions and wore his pride on his sleeve.
Blair gave him the strength to tell the truth.
While Chuck was leading with honesty Dan preys on vulnerability.
It is not a secret Dan loves a damsel in distress.
This hero complex seems noble to the untrained eye.
However, in reality, Dan just wants you to need him.
Instead of whining like a little girl, be a man and fight for the woman you love.
Blair was a pregnant runaway bride, give her a break.
Let her blame it on hormones.
Dan is the definition of no good deed goes unpunished.
Was Blair taking advantage of you?
Probably…but throwing it back in Blairs face replaces all the good Dan ever did.
It makes the good deed ingenuine.
His actions would speak louder than his whiny words.
He needs you to need him.
He feels complete when you are an absolute mess and he gets to fix you.
Thus explaining his relationship with Serena.
Chuck doesnt need you to feel complete.
He is Chuck Bass.
Chuck is the escape.
He is not there to pick up your glass slipper at midnight.
He is not that guy.
He is the guy you run to and you have no idea why.
He is the one that you break all your rules for.
He is the one that gets you and you cant explain it.
Nothing makes sense anymore, but nothing makes sense without him.
Everyone and their mother thinks you are crazy, but you dont care what anyone else thinks.
He gives you a love you did not think was possible.
You fear it because you know your world is forever changed.
Your world would be easier if I did not come back.Chuck Bass
Thats true.
