You know those pastries that look pretty in the case, but then you eat one, and you like it, kind of, but you feel a bit sick after you eat it, and it has a weird aftertaste? It's good, but not very nourishing, and you really wouldn't want to eat a second?

Some couples are like this.

They are, admittedly, cute, and maybe I do ship them a tad, as a natural reaction to that. But that cuteness ins't enough for my to ship them, to really believe they should be together.

They're cute, but not in a way that I think should translate well to a couple. Often, their non-romantic relationship is great, unique, and powerful, and I think romance would deflate and sully it.
