Both...it's so irritating. I hate any pick that claims a couple "overrated" or "boring" for any reasons, but particularly these reasons. Everyone sees something different in different ships and there's no "you can't ship such and such couple"
It bothers me to no end...

This makes PERFECT sense. Lets NOT ship a couple because they are broken up/not together/ or aren't endgame! *insert sarcasm here*

This is really irksome.

Both. But I guess it's more legit to ship a couple because they've been together. Breaking up doesn't mean we should stop shipping them. It's not our fault that they're broken up. It's also not our fault that they're still better than other couples which are TOGETHER.

They both irritate me though! Like if someone hates a "couple" I like and they aren't together, then the best exuse they come up with is that they aren't even a couple! Like it's a crime to like two people together if they aren't officially together!

Both are completely ridiculous statements. But I think this one is a little more ridiculous.

Just because two people have never officially been a couple, that doesn't mean that someone can't think that they WOULD be great together. Take Brooke and Nathan for example. They have never been, and never will be a couple... but I still love the idea of them. And I still love the chemistry, and the scenes between them that we have gotten. I see that their personalities, and their background are extremely similar, and I think they would make a fantastic couple. Sue me lol.

And as far as "how can you still ship them? They've broken up!"... I still think this statement in general is ridiculous, but there can be exceptions. More often than not, if a couple has been together, but then have broken up... it's because something went WRONG in their relationship. And if that's the case, (depending on what went wrong, and the reasons for breaking up), then I can understand why some people would question people still liking that couple... if that couple had relationship problems severe enough to cause a breakup.

Atleast when shipping AU type couples, there isn't any negativity between the couple to dwell on. They haven't had any relationship problems, because they haven't officially had a relationship. So your opinion about them is basically all in your head, and imagining how their relationship "could be". But if two people actually try to be a couple, and despite their efforts, it DOESNT work out... then that usually means there is atleast something to not like about that couple, because it didn't work out between them for a reason... and they must have had some problems as a couple. But again, it just depends. Hope that makes sense lol

I'm not terribly bugged by either because what do I care what other people are saying about reasons to ship or not to ship?

Perfectly said Nem!

---------------------

But if two people actually try to be a couple, and despite their efforts, it DOESNT work out... then that usually means there is atleast something to not like about that couple, because it didn't work out between them for a reason...

Sure, there is obviously a reason for most break-ups, whether or not they make sense etc isn't going to be debated [lol] BUT, just because things go bad/end badly, that doesn't, at least in my opinion, take away from the good moments a couple shared!

I know that isn't what you're saying in any way, just want to point out that it's absurd when people expect a group of fans to just completely stop shipping a couple because they aren't together anymore!

I mean let's look at a couple like Logan & Veronica. They weren't together anymore when the show ended, yet they are still an extremely well loved couple. Now granted, there is not a doubt in my mind that they would have reconciled if the show continued, they are epic after all! But if we get technical, going by the "well they did break up for a reason..." that would totally apply to them and yeah... lol I can't even imagine a lot of LoVe fans not shipping them anymore!

^ oh no, I see what you're saying. And I totally agree.

Just because a couple breaks up and has problems in their relationship, that doesn't mean that their fans are just going to totally forget about all of their good qualities, and good times that they had, and stop shipping them. And just because a couple breaks up, that doesn't make them a bad couple who doesn't deserve fans either. I personally just think it's easier to find negative qualities in a FAILED relationship, as opposed to a non existant, AU relationship. And if it's easier to find negative aspects in a couple, then it's easier to question why people would ship that couple. I dunno, I know what I'm trying to say, but it's hard to explain lol

But at the end of the day, both of these statements are just absured!

I'm a lot more familiar with "No way, he/she is so much better with that other person" and that one would definitely win over both of those, usually because whoever it is that they are shipping are a ridiculous choice.

Both sayings are annoying. I usually start shipping two characters in hope that they will become a couple. Meaning I don't care if they haven't been a couple before.

Everyone can ship who ever they like. Even people who never been a couple but what I hate is that in polls when asked which is the best couples they are included. It's okey if you like the two characters and ship for them as an AU but since in the series never happened it's out of place. Example: People who ship Brathan when they were never a couple. They can't be included as OTH couples.
