Gossip Girl: A few endgame theories

Chair and Dair. Apparently, Gossip Girl has become the Blair Waldorf’s Love Life show. I ship Chair and, for me, they’re “endgame” (meaning they’re going to end up together before the series is over, in case you don’t know), but the other day I was thinking about how many Dair fans are out there and some questions came to my mind: What if the Gossip Girl writers decide to make Dair happen in the end? What would happen to Chuck and Serena? And what if Chuck and Blair end up together? Will Derena be back on? And after all of those questions, another one popped into my head: What the hell happened to Nate’s love life?!

So I came up with some theories. All that I’ll write here is pure speculation. It’s also spoiler-free for those who have watched all the episodes that aired thus far.

If Chuck and Blair end up together…

If Chuck and Blair ended up together, Dan would probably turn to Serena for comfort. They’d begin to hang out more and as Serena’s rekindled love for Dan grows, Dan would begin to see for himself that Serena is the one for him. However, feelings don’t just go away, it takes time, and he can’t just erase Blair from his heart. Serena would notice that and be jealous and they’d fight. Dan would finally realize that Serena’s fallen in love with him again and forgive her for her behavior. As they get closer, their love would grow. For me, season 6 (yes, I believe there will be a season 6) could be about that (and Chair’s relationship , obviously) and the show could end with them being together again, in a date, like in the pilot (pictured above). Even with the same clothing, to remember the old times. As I write this, I can’t stop imagining it. I’m sure we all – even Dair fans – can imagine that scene.

But then there’s Nate. What if Serena got tired of waiting for Dan and decided to try it with Nate one more time? Though I don’t have much to say here, we know it’s possible. I’m pretty sure Nate would agree with Serena if she said “hey, Nate, let’s give our relationship another try!” Maybe he’d be reluctant but would end up wanting to give it another try too. I guess if that happened Dan would end up with Vanessa… if he ever forgives her. If he doesn’t, I don’t know, maybe he’ll end up with Chivy. Or maybe the real Charlie Rhodes shows up and he falls in love with her. If none of these happens, I’m sure he’ll find someone or at least find a way to be happy.

If Dan and Blair end up together…

If Dan and Blair end up together, they could always bring Eva back. If you don’t remember Eva, she was the blonde French girl who saved Chuck’s life in the beginning of season 4. In my opinion, Chuck has never loved anyone as much as he loves Blair but he loved Eva back then. Sure, Chuck would be devastated after losing Blair again. He would drown himself in alcohol and women for a while, before he realized it wouldn’t do a thing for him. He’d begin to think and probably remember Eva. With luck, she’d be available and willing to accept his apology and then they’d be together.

And what about Serena and her love for Dan? Well, do you remember her other love? Nate? The love that started the whole series? Yes, Nate! What happened to Nate’s love life, by the way? The seasons passed by and he kept making out with older women. Maybe it’s time for a change. This is like my first theory only the other way around: Serena would turn to Nate for comfort and Nate, being the sweetheart he is, would comfort her. His feelings would return (I don’t believe they were ever really gone) but Serena would be all “I love Dan now I lost him! Dan. Dan. Dan…” However, Serena had to choose so many times between the two guys that I don’t believe she could spend much time with Nate without falling for him all over again. Happy ending for Serenate fans!

If Chair and Derena end up together…

I mean, what will happen with our older-women-lover sex god? I’m betting on Jenny (if Taylor Momsen would come back). Yes, she’s in London studying fashion but she does have a family in Manhattan and she can always come back to at least a few episodes to visit Rufus and Dan. I guess everyone has apologized to her by now and she could bond with Nate once more. I’ve always liked their little relationship and I’ve always thought it could be shown more than it actually was on the show. It could all happen in the end of season 6. Chuck and Blair are together, doing whatever they want, maybe even planning a wedding. Dan and Serena are hanging out, getting close again, falling in love. And Nate and Jenny are spending time together and eventually dating. With the right writing, it could be the old times again, when the show was focused on the six main characters.
