TTT - My Favorite Platonic Relationships in Books/Movies/TV

The top 10 weekly meme used to be hosted by The Broke and the Bookish they  handed over the reins to ThatArtsyReaderGirl who can be found HERE.  Each week she will focus on lists which cover various topics related to books and reading. 

This week we are looking at platonic relationships so I'm sharing  of my faves!


Seriously, is there any better example of true friendship than Pooh and Piglet???


I've always had a soft spot for Shaggy and Scooby.


I like book Sookie and Sam in the books and the show - bet this will cause some controversy!


Bill Hodges and Holly.  There's just something so sweet about their relationship.

 

I think Lindsey and Beth have a great friendship.  Lindsey is so grounded and Beth is a tad flighty so they play off each other well.


Groot and Rocket are so cute and clearly very bonded.


They may be divorced but Chris and Benita are still the best of buds.


Olivia, Gabriel and Ricky - Since I don't want to spoil this I will just leave it at loving Olivia's friendship with both of these guys.


I'm sure this trio will find their way on lots of lists!


Cara and Vincent.  Everyone needs a wacky fairy godfather!

So there you have it.  Did any of these make your lists?  Did the Sookie pairing tick you off?

  2. Some great picks, Barb! Rocket and Groot are so cute together. And who can't love Pooh and Piglet. I liked Chris and Benita too. Shea only has a couple of books where I loved the characters. Most of the time he uses them for fodder. LOL

    1. Oh yea, it's rarely ever smart to get attached to Shea characters.

    1. Yea, they were probably better friends than anything else. But I always loved Sam the best (imagine - a boyfriend AND a dog rolled into one!)

  5. Of course I also picked the HP trio. There are so many other great friendships in that book too. I knew you would pick Pooh and Piglet! My daughter and her friend dressed up as Pooh and Piglet last year for Halloween.

  7. Yes to Rocket and Groot! I love their relationship in both the comics and the movies. Harry Potter has a wonderful trio of friends, even though two of them end up in a romantic relationship. :)

    1. Well, some of us would rather that romance not happen so we chose to ignore it :)

  17. If your relationship is not the biggest source of happiness and joy in your life...

    If you’re not getting the love, devotion and adoration that you deserve...

    Or if the men in your life seem to lose interest out of nowhere leaving you confused and hurt...

    Then I can honestly say that this video is the most important thing you can watch right now and will absolutely transform your relationships forever.

    ==> Men Commit When They Feel This

    Once you discover this one missing “secret ingredient” to lasting love and devotion... You’ll be able to emotionally “click” with men in a way that no other woman ever has.

    And he will feel an irresistible urge deep in his chest that makes him want to lovingly commit to you and never let you go.

    So if you’re looking for tricks and mind games to get a man’s attention or manipulate his feelings, then this is not for you.

    There is plenty of stuff like that out there. But I’m pretty sure you’re looking for something more genuine.

    Something special that will last the test of time.

    Something that will empower you to create real desire in a man and the kind of emotional bond that life partnerships are built upon.

    If that’s you then this video has your name on it. You can watch it here:
