For this week’s Top 10 Tuesday meme, we have a Valentine’s Day freebie, so let’s showcase some of those OTP (One True Pairings) that deserve extra attention today. Disclaimer: All of this is intended in good fun only!
1 / The Best Bickersome
Benedick and Beatrice, surely the poster child for fighting-too-much leads to love.
2 / The Most Self-Destructive
If Catherine had not been so bratty, could Heathcliff have been so broody?
3 / The Indeed Ill-Fated
Tristan and Isolde, a disaster in the making.
4 / The Highest Risk Appetite
Orpheus and Eurydice – not even till death do them part.
5 / The Most ‘Hair’-Brained
A bad pun on harebrained – but why didn’t Rapunzel & her prince ever use a ladder?
6 / The Most Obliging
Jane Bennet and Charles Bingley – the perfect supporting cast to Lizzy & Darcy.
7 / The Wittiest Pair
Westley and Buttercup know that laughter keeps love afloat.
8 / The Craziest Seesaw
Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler, the push and pull goes on forever.
9 / The Best Tourists Ever
Jamie Fraser and Claire Beauchamp – and I’m not just talking about the time travel.
10 / The Most Matter of Fact
Me Tarzan, You Jane. Let’s keep it simple, really!
From one blogger to another – Happy Valentine’s Day, folks! Hope this OTP list brought a smile to your face, and how’s your TTT list looking?

I love Jamie Fraser and Claire Beauchamp with best tourists ever. Fits perfectly!
I learned a new phrase, OTP (One True Pairings). Thanks for this *lovely* post.
I wondered the same thing about Rapunzel and her prince! Haha.

Yay! Westley and Buttercup made your list!
One of my favorite couples: I really like Dwight and Caroline from the Poldark books (they’re pretty cool in the tv adaptation too). 🙂
Check out my TTT

I love this twist on the topic, it’s so clever and original. Great choices for the ‘winners’ too! 🙂
Benedick and Beatrice: I wonder (too lazy to check) if this is the movie that got Emma and Kenneth to become a pair in real life?
Happy (belated) Valentine’s Day! This is a great list. I know there’s at least one version of Rapunzel where the prince brings her rope to make a ladder from, and that’s how the witch finds out about the plan. I think this was a PG version, though, instead of the witch finding out because Rapunzel was obviously pregnant… 😉
These were so fun and hard to pick a favorite but I’m leaning towards the Rapunzel pairing! 🙂
Oh, this was fun! Great twist this week. Definitely made me smile. 🙂
