This is the only one of these I will ever reblog

Reblogging again because it is the TRUTH.

They are the couple I strive to be

THIS ^

YES PLEASE GOD SEND ME MY GOMEZ

“How long has it been since we waltzed?”
“Oh, Gomez… hours.”

I idolized them as a kid. And I wanted to marry Morticia. Still do.

They were everyone’s OTP at one time. If you try & say otherwise— YOU BE LYING!!!

AND THEY WERE PERFECT PARENTS TOO!

They were fiercely proud of their children’s accomplishments.

They played together as a family.

They went to school plays, parent/teacher interviews, and helped with school work.

They co-parented, Gomez was just as active in raising their children as Morticia was.

When their children wanted something that they disapproved of, they were disappointed but relented because it would make them happy.

Plus, all TV married couples kind of hate each other and argue 90% of the time for the sake of comedy, but these two have always seemed to be forever and always in love, which is kind of sweet.

And if that’s only possible because they’re weirdos, what does that say about us?

LET ME TELL YOU about their daughter and her fiance.

Wednesday and Lucas, the latter of whom exists only in the musical but is still totally canon the Tee and Charles Addams Foundation approved it counts kthnxbai.

These two don’t complete each other; they complement each other perfectly. Which, to me, is their big advantage over Wednesday/Joel. Lucas doesn’t offer to worship Wednesday and be her devoted slave, but approaches her as a human being, on her level. And, while he is more “normal” and makes no pretense about it, he appreciates her strangeness and the fact that it makes her who she is. Likewise, Wednesday wouldn’t change a thing about him.

When Lucas is being scared of everything, Wednesday pulls him out of his comfort zone. When she’s being overemotional, he calls her bullshit and/or calms her down, as necessary. Theirs is not a mistress-slave relationship, but one of companions and equals who make a truly perfect team. This was most evident in the OBC, where they were played by actors who were (and still are) best friends offstage.

Lucas comes from the Latin word meaning “light.” Wednesday comes from a background of darkness. Together, they form a figurative Yin-Yang; accepting each other’s differences and sharing the similarities. At the end of the show, one gets the feeling that they’ll carry the essential nature of their relationship into marriage and parenthood.
