The Life-Changing Kiss on “Gossip Girl”

A month after the show last aired, it came back with a bang.

The only thing I’m really concerned with is the kiss. After months of heavy flirting, is Blair really trying to say that the kiss with Dan meant “less than nothing?” I think it did mean something, which is why she was so quick and certain that she was into Chuck. We all know Blair has an exact plan of how she wants her life to turn out, down to who she wants to spend it with. And while that has changed over the seasons, the type of boy has always been the same: rich, white, from a well-known family. Dan is everything Blair has never wanted and I think that she is honestly very scared to try out something with him. Though she had everyone convinced that she was going to confess her undying love for Chuck, her hesitation shows that she is reconsidering. Could this be the most shocking relationship the Upper East Side has ever seen?

As for Lily going to the slammer… It was only a matter of time before her actions caught up to her. But it is doubtful she’ll spend significant time in jail.

What about the new cousin Charlie? What’s her story? Why is Lily’s sister so protective and hesitant to let her stay in New York? And how about that slightly-too-long moment she shared with Dan? Only time will tell what this new blonde bombshell is up to.

Is V really back in town for good?
Where was Little J for the family portrait?
Will C fight for B? Will B go back to C?
Will D fight for B? Will B pick D?
Will L go to prison forever?

Until next week…
XOXO

    I agree that whole Chuck think was a big WTF for me.She looked sad when dan said it meant nothing to him like it did to you.Dan is everything Blair hated for a very long time in vice versus .I think she has feelings for him but scared to admit it dan is the biggest risk of life and she’s terrified the prince is her excuse to run away from her feelings from dan and I think she’s starting to think she deserves better than Chuck lord knows that’s true.I can see the writers pulling a Romeo and Juliet type storyline in S5 because this actually 1 relationship alot of people they care about would be against,there’s such so much potiential for these two their changing the game with this couple like pacey and joey did for DC .I also see some Rufus and Lily in them too but much,much better and intense.I hope the writers know what they have in Dan and Blair they are the makings of a great love story and their giving Chuck and Blair a run for their money on endgame.Dan and Blair should def be the gamechanger for GG.

    Dan and Blair are amazing on GG! I agree, Blair seemed to hesitant with Dan and she seemed disappointed that Dan didn’t have feelings for her. If she was ready to be with Chuck then why didn’t she just get out of bed and go be with him, she realized she had feelings for dan and didn’t want to admit them. Now the Prince is a good distraction, plus she wants to be royalty. Poor Dan 🙁 dair ftw! team pauper!
