Goodreads asked Bobbi J.G. Weiss:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Bobbi J.G. Weiss This took me awhile to answer. It's a hard question! There are so many answers!

I read a lot of horror, which isn't always big on good couples. Then I read fantasy, but only certain kinds of fantasy. Hmm and hmm again.

Here are some of the couples I've enjoyed reading:

• Ron and Hermione in HARRY POTTER
• Scarlett and Rhett in GONE WITH THE WIND
• Alan Pangborn and Polly Chalmers in Stephen King's NEEDFUL THINGS
• Logan (Wolverine) and Jean Grey (Phoenix) in the classic X-MEN comics (I haven't kept up with the comic since about 2004) NOTE: I can't stand the relationship in the X-MEN movies because IMHO Famke Janssen was a horrible cast for Jean--waaay too old, dull, no charisma at all like comics Jean)

Now, if TV can be included, since you did say "fictional," then the answer is easy: The Doctor and Rose from DOCTOR WHO. Either with Doctor 9 or 10, The Doctor and Rose is a wonderful friendship that was also a great unconsummated love affair. Perfect classic romance.

I'm sure there are a ton of others that I'm just not thinking of at the moment. But I hope this answers your question. Kinda. Sorta.

Thank you for asking!
