This past Monday on the CW’s Gossip Girl, we saw our most screwed up couple come to an official end. Ever since the end of season 2, Blair and Chuck have fascinated us with their wild games and their approaches to the issues that they face as products of New York’s Upper East Side.

This relationship begin to form back in season 1 when Blair and Nate had just broken up and Blair found out that Nate and Serena had slept together before Serena had skipped out of town. We all remember how it went down, don’t we? The back of a limo, champagne and Chuck Bass himself all proved to be a lethal combination for Blair Waldorf. After a brief reconciliation of their relationship, Nate and Blair called it quits for good. After Blair’s pregnancy scandal, Chuck kinda kicked Blair to the curb for a while telling her that she became like any other slutty girl on the Upper East side and that the thrill of chasing her was over. At the end of season 1, Serena’s mother, Lily, and Chuck’s father, Bart, got married, and Chuck made the traditional best man speech. Although publicly referring to his father and new bride, Chuck’s toast was a declaration of love for Blair. He promised to take her to Europe for the summer, but after a conversation with his father on what relationships do to the “people of our world,” Chuck abandoned Blair at the helipad and forced her to go to Europe alone.

In season 2, they attended the annual cricket game in upstate New York. It’s from this episode throughout the entire season that they went back and forth trying to put in words their feelings for each other. “Just say it. 3 words, 8 letters.” Blair finally said it, and Chuck had another breakdown. In the season 2 finale, before Blair and Serena jet off to Europe for the summer again, Chuck finally said those 3 small words.

In the season 3 premiere, Gossip Girl suspected Chuck was up to his old ways, but it turned out Blair and Chuck had come up with some pretty interesting games to play with each other. In season 3 Blair and Chuck became closer than ever, especially dealing with the death of Bart, Serena’s car accident, finding out that Chuck’s mother wasn’t dead and Chuck’s Uncle Jack coming back for some revenge. This revenge was what ultimately made Blair and Chuck break up. Although they were a pretty twisted couple, they were perfect for each other, and I’m sad to see them apart.
