This comment is my favorite (especially since I used to like Creddie). It's sooo true: In the real world, Creddie would be okay, even sweet. But the way Dan's been working the plot, I just don't think it's going anywhere. It doesn't have anywhere to go. It's not Dan's first rodeo, there has to be buildup for a relationship, and Creddie's vibe is definitely that it's dying out, not getting stronger. Freddie mentions his love for her less and less, and he has other girlfriends, and she encourages them. Basically every angle of their relationship has already been discussed. Freddie turned into a "fanciable", much taller hunk o' boy, and she *still* doesn't like him for real. I'm not saying Creddie couldn't have ever been interesting if they'd been developing a different dynamic, but it's never been any kind of secret, there's no real tension in their relationship, nothing under the surface... it's just a running gag, really. If Creddie was going to happen, a LOT of things would have to happen first, too, like there being no possibility that Sam likes Freddie, which is practically canon - I don't think we're making this up at all (tongue in ear?). You can't just leave that out there, you know?

Imagine iSaved Your Life if they didn't break up. They'd probably make out a lot, Carly would be jealous if other people hit on Freddie, Freddie would be jealous if other people hit on Carly, they'd make out some more. I'm sure Dan could find some plots that aren't entirely uninteresting with their new bf/gf dynamic. But Sam would still be mad and want to puke up blood - would Dan spend a whole episode explaining some reason why (other than a crush on Freddie) and making her change her mind and give them her blessing? In a lot of shows, there's some resolution when two characters get together, like the obstacles have been overcome. But with Creddie, I think it would cause more problems than it resolves.

In my opinion, Creddie wouldn't just be boring, it would make no sense...
