So many fictional couples end up in tragedy, it's almost hard to keep track. But many shouldn't have gotten together in the first place.


Take Romeo & Juliet, for example - two teenagers who killed themselves because their parents disapproved of their relationship. Really? Go on Maury. Or Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidallah - they had to have known it wasn't going to end well.

We know which one wears the pants.

Giphy

Kermit and Miss Piggy. He has depth and is kind and observant and she's a superficial, abusive narcissist. And they're interspecies so reproduction is impossible/ high stakes.
