On-Screen Couples That I Can’t Believe Aren’t Married!

in General

With Valentine’s Day approaching in a little over a month, my thoughts always shift to romantic movies, as well as television shows with romantic couples (for example, Mr. Big and Carrie Bradshaw), and the pleasure I have in watching them.  When perusing my collection of romantic dvd’s (which inevitably, always provide an intense sob session on my part), I began to think about the characters in these movies and  television shows, and the believable connection that they are able to create between one another.

Have you ever thought about how well some of the actors/actresses are able to make you believe that they are truly in love with one another?

Thus, I have created a list of actors and actresses that are able to ignite the “fire” so well on-screen, that I cannot believe they are not currently married or in a relationship together in real life. Can you think of any other candidates that are not on this list?

Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan

Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore make such a good couple on both of those movies. Their acting is so amazing, it really makes you beleive that they are together as a couple. They should be together.

I support JULIA ROBERTS and RICHARD GERE!!!
And I wish they would be united for another movie because their wonderful chemistry just makes it work.
And they’re so cute and adorable together!
