Gossip Girl Scoop: Dan's Feelings For Blair Remain
The good news for Gossip Girl fans who yearn for more Dan-Blair action?
Dan, like the actor who plays him, Penn Badgley, is reportedly all for it.
The bad news? Blair is reportedly having none of that.
According to TV Line, any romantic feelings on the Dair front will be one-sided in Season 5.
When the show returns Sept. 26, "It’ll be clear that Dan still has feelings for Blair, but the future princess of Monaco is still having none of it," writes Michael Ausiello.
Whether Chuck has a better shot with B remains to be seen, but it looks like Dan and Blair are squarely on the back burner for now. As for Dan and Serena, well ...
Anything can happen, right?

Seriously, Dan and Blair needs a shot.
I mean, they're the only one left that didn't dated each other. Not unless, if Chuck wants to date his step-sister Serena. LOL

@ A: You do realize that Blair wanted Nate before Chuck since she was like a child and Nate and Blair dated for an undetermined amount of time in their teen years before Blair broke up with Nate and started her affair with Chuck? Speculations aside about Chuck and Blair's subconscious feelings towards each other, the only thing that we know for a fact is that Chuck came to be registered in Blair's romantic radar 2 days before her 17 birthday and not years before that, that was Nate's place, at least that's the only thing that the show is proving with its images and storyline, our ideas about everybody subconcious feelings are what we are trying to read in the show subtext.
And I'm not saying every single TV character has to end up with who they loved as a teen, it simply just happens sometimes and some other times it doesn't, this is entertaiment after all and sometimes people want to see stuff that is not realistic and other times they do. Ross loved Rachel since they were teens b

@pty
Dan and Blair can remind us of Seth and Summer even if their stories aren't precisely the same!
It's ridiculous to say- oh, but Seth wanted summer since he was 10 and Dan only started wanting Blair now.
So what???
There are still similarities between the two.
This whole idea that in a show characters should end up with the same person they wanted at the very start is stupid. Characters should be able to evolve and mature and change their minds, want different things, different people.
People saying that Blair wanted Chuck since she was 17 and so will love him for the rest of her life (!) scare me. That's why I assume the majority ot them are teenagers still because as a teenager you believe you'll actually love the same person forever (I remember I thought that) but as you grow up and fall in love again, and again, you realise how naive you used to be.
I think it's great for the characters to realise that what they thought they wanted all along is not what they neccess

They are not like Seth and Summer for one fundamental reason: Seth knew that he wanted Summer since the beginning, from before Ryan entered his life, he was in love with her since they were around ten! In GG timeline Dan only showed a similar behaviour once, it was towards Serena at the beginning of the show, when it was also revealed that he had been pinning for her for almost two years (this comes from the books), and this was also further confirmed by him in following episodes! If the show wants to rewrite history now and pretend he wanted Blair or lusted after her while pinning for Serena since freshman year like they seemed to insinuate in the finale (though I doubt they'll actually will do that) then that's one thing, but we all saw what happened when the show began, and it wasn't Seth and Summer 2.0.
