On Gossip Girl they show us Rufus/Lily who are forced to wait 20 years to be together, kept apart initially because they are from different worlds. Then they show us Cyrus/Eleanor, Blair’s mother with a man who doesn’t “fit” the usual UES standards.

I mean why put such an emphasis on these woman from Blair’s world ending up happy with men who aren’t… Unless its so that these two woman, Blair’s mother and Lily who Blair is actually so much like, and who she trusts, will be able to help her see that she shouldn’t have to wait to have her happily ever after. That she needs to forget what people say or think and just be happy now.

It might be too optimist to hope that this was the plan all along. I do believe that the writers did love the initial chemistry that came with Chuck/Blair. I loved the chemistry when it first started.

I do like to believe that just like people grow and change that writers can too and that they now see that what was once good for Blair, is no longer whats best for her. I’m sure once upon a time Lily thought Mr. van der Woodsen was the right choice, and Eleanor felt that way for Mr. Waldorf.

Now a new chemistry has emerged and its better than what came before. As one Gossip Girl fan once said. Serena brings out bitch Blair. Chuck brings out insecure Blair. But Dan brings out Blair. I think that is such an accurate break down, because I feel like we’ve never seen Blair more able to be herself than with Dan.

Agreed?
