i'd go with Dan or even Louis and Nate.
I would be okay with her ending up with Dan, Louise, Nate, Serena or even Vanessa at this point. But please let her leave that abusive relaionship behind.
I think most people forget that Dan has schemed WITH Blair in the past. He knows that part of her. He has seen her worst (her fights with Serena, Vanessa, Jenny etc.), and he doesn't agree with everything she does, but he still act like he's her friend and treats her with respect.
Plus, we actually saw Dan and Blair scheming together sucessfully more often than we saw Chuck and Blair doing it (together).
He just calls her out when she goes to far. He understands why she acts the way she does, but he doesn't encourage it.
For me, a big difference between Blair and Chuck is, that Blair schemes when she's hurt/threatned, but Chuck schemes because he actually enjoys messing with people. That's quite different.
I think Blair is way more than what Chuck sees in her. And I don't think he really believes in her. Their relationship is always about him. He tries to control her. He tried to blame her for the IP. He didn't even apologize, he just gave her that stupid ultimatum. He made her believe that she was so horrible that no one else could ever love her. That's classic abusive bahaviour. And Blair has said herself that Chuck makes her miserable.
and those who feel the need to insult others and call them 'lost their mind' for shipping a fictional tv couple..seriously the need to get a life and stop being pathetic!!
I love CHAIR and I don't care :)
@LoveMeABasshole i really don't give a flying fiddlestick anymore about Chuck being "in awe of Blair's determination" and "believing in her" because that doesn't even come close to neutralising the arguments against chair he doesn't respect her (he traded her for a freaking hotel! nobody fictional or not should be with a person who does that to them!) so money obviously means more to him than Blair does! he constantly refuses to let her be happy and selfishly destroys all her relationships like it's either him or nobody for her, he constantly dates other girls not caring in the slightest about Blair's feelings, expects her to wait around for him and then won't let her date anybody else! he thinks she's "his" he said that himself which was initially objectifying her, he smashed a glass and physically harmed her (and don't start talking rubbish about it being a accident, because you don't just accidentally punch a glass right next to somebody's face!) so after all that how and in what world can Chuck Basstard "deserve" Blair!? oh and on top of all that Blair hates who she becomes when she's with Chuck, when she's with Dan that's the real Blair.
Dan makes Blair happy, he wants her to be happy even if that means being unhappy himself (unlike some people), he's always been there when she needed someone even when they hated each other (again unlike some people) he's actually her friend (once again unlike some people) and he has stuff in common with her other that plotting and scheming (do i need to say it?) that's deserving someone not acting like a complete a** to them!
Maybe there was atime in season three when Blair was happy with Chuck, but she isn't now. He's making her miserable. He hurts her.
Also, Chuck offering to "buy" Blair sucess doesn't show he really cares abot her. Again, it's about him, and about what he wants.
He uses money to solve his problems.
He offers her to buy her a foundation when she want to have success more than to be with him.
Then, he lets her go, because he doesn't need/want her at that point. Later, after Raina dumps his ass, and Fish Industries is in danger, he suddely remembers that Blair was always there for him. He doesn't give a fuck about her/ what she's going through until that point.
He just decides for her that now is the time to get back together, because all his other plans didn't work out.
He manipulates her into thinking she is successful/ in charge so she'll take him back.
There is a huge difference between actually being in charge/ powerful, or being tricked into believing you are while someone else pulls the strings.
Chuck is always the one in control of their relationship. It's never Blair's call. Always his decision. If he would love her, he would respect her.
Then I would highly recommend you to educate yourself before talking about such a sensitive/important issue.
Abuse doesn't have to be phisical AT ALL. It's called EMOTIONAL ABUSE and is just as dangerous as any other form of abuse.

This side has a lot of information on different kinds of abuse.
Also, someone, idk if from tumblr or LJ made this to show some of the abusive bahaviour on GG:

If your partner exhibits one or more of these signs, it may be time to reevaluate your relationship and seek help or get out.
1. Jealousy & Possessiveness – Becomes jealous over your family, friends, co-workers. Tries to isolate you. Views his woman as his property instead of a unique individual.
2. Control – He is overly demanding of your time and must be the center of your attention. He controls finances, the car, and the activities you partake in.
3. Superiority – He is always right, has to win or be in charge. He always justifies his actions so he can be “right” by blaming you or others. A verbally abusive man will talk down to you or call you names in order to make himself feel better. The goal of an abusive man is to make you feel weak so they can feel powerful. Abusers are frequently insecure and this power makes them feel better about themselves.
4. Manipulates – Tells you you’re crazy or stupid so the blame is turned on you. Tries to make you think that it’s your fault he is abusive. Says he can’t help being abusive so you feel sorry for him and you keep trying to “help” him. Tells others you are unstable.
5. Mood Swings – His mood switches from aggressive and abusive to apologetic and loving after the abuse has occurred.
6. Actions don’t match words – He breaks promises, says he loves you and then abuses you.
7. Punishes you – An emotionally abusive man may withhold sex, emotional intimacy, or plays the “silent game” as punishment when he doesn’t get his way. He verbally abuses you by frequently criticizing you.
8. Unwilling to seek help – An abusive man doesn’t think there is anything wrong with him so why should he seek help? Does not acknowledge his faults or blames it on his childhood or outside circumstances.
9. Disrespects women – Shows no respect towards his mother, sisters, or any women in his life. Thinks women are stupid and worthless.
10. Has a history of abusing women and/or animals or was abused himself – Batterers repeat their patterns and seek out women who are submissive and can be controlled. Abusive behavior can be a generational dysfunction and abused men have a great chance of becoming abusers.
It Is Still Abuse If . . .
* The incidents of physical abuse seem minor when compared to those you have read about, seen on television or heard other women talk about. There isn’t a “better” or “worse” form of physical abuse; you can be severely injured as a result of being pushed, for example.
* The incidents of physical abuse have only occurred one or two times in the relationship. Studies indicate that if your spouse/partner has injured you once, it is likely he will continue to physically assault you.
* The physical assaults stopped when you became passive and gave up your right to express yourself as you desire, to move about freely and see others, and to make decisions. It is not a victory if you have to give up your rights as a person and a partner in exchange for not being assaulted!
* There has not been any physical violence. Many women are emotionally and verbally assaulted. This can be as equally frightening and is often more confusing to try to understand.

Can you honestly say, that Chuck /the Chair relationship doesn't apply to most of these?
