It feels reminiscent of Brad and Jen, though I almost cannot remember the Brad Pitt of yore. You see, being a Sag, he can easily mold to his partner, and I only think of him as Angelina's now. Say it ain't, so, that breaks my early 2000s heart.
But, Amy Poehler and Will Arnett?! But they are both so funny! And cute together. And witty, and nice, and their children have great names! And I just typed "childrens" and had to delete the 's'! I am losing it!
So, I came to give us all a little bit of hope.
Famous Couples That We Can Still Believe In
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith
These two freakin' hotties have been married for fifteen years. Okay, fifteen years and a few kids is really impressive, in my book. No one in my family was ever married for fifteen years (maybe my paternal grandparents, but I don't know that fact!) and none of us kids are as fly as the Smiths.

Plus, they both have had music careers and acting careers and they are incredibly good looking and funny. They got it all. If the divorce rumors are true, consider me dead meat.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson
Wait--Rita Wilson's real name is Margarita?! How did I not know that? That's delicious. Tom and Rita just celebrated their twenty-fourth wedding anniversary, they share four children (two are her birth kids, the other two come from a first marriage of Tom's) and they are both like, extremely loved in Hollywood. Keep up the good work, beautiful people.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia di Rossi
Ellen and Portia have been married for four years, and I expect many, many more. I always loved Portia from Ally McBeal, I always loved Ellen from Real Life, and I love these two together, and I don't even usually love blondes, so this is a big deal for me. Ellen is a true inspiration--she really gives me hope after bouncing back from that super weird relationship with Anne Heche. We all know who won that falling out.

Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr.
To be honest, I do not have that much to say about either of them as people, or even as actors, but man they have been married for ten years! And I do appreciate how under-the-radar they have always remained about their relationship. They came from the generation of combining each other's names into one (Bennifer, anyone?), and for some reason, they seem humbly above all of that. I appreciate it. Makes their love feel real.
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis
Sure, they are still only rumored to be dating, but they have known each other since Mila was fourteen years old. If you guys know anything about me, it should be that I LOVE COWORKERS DATING. No, seriously, you have like a million percent better of a chance with me if we met at work / through work. (Customers count.) I think it is so cute to be like, "yeah, we worked together and then fell in love." ESPECIALLLLLLLY if you play a couple on television or a movie, like Ashton and Mila did for so long.
(Though don't tell anyone, but I loved Hyde/Jackie way more than Kelso/Jackie.)
Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio
I pretend they are a real couple, so they make this list.
I used to think I had a ton of guy friends, and now I realize that I maybe have like...one? And that's being generous because I am extremely picky about the word "friend." So even if they are not a real couple (again, I pretend), I still value their relationship with each other. It is hard to strike that balance with the sex you are interested in. I feel like I would be pissed every time Leo dated a model, but then again, Kate Winslet is about a trillion times more beautiful than any model, so. Maybe she knows that.

Barack and Michelle Obama
Because.
Just because they are the most perfect people in the entire world, that's why.
Jay Z and Beyoncé
I am not saying I like them more than our First Couple, I am saying I think Barack and Michelle might like them a whole bunch too. In fact, in my dream world, they all four go on double dates, because why wouldn't they?
Jay and B are the greatest because they are clearly supportive of each other's every move, because they had a really cute baby only after being together for a very long time, because they are both POWERHOUSES, because they are really good looking, especially together, because they love spending time together in cars, because they support gay marriage, because they spend a lot of time together, even if that seems kind of impossible, because they have always been as quiet as possible about their relationship.
Oh, and every single one of their songs together is fantastic.
“There's definitely a dangerous feeling when you're in love--it's giving your heart to someone else and knowing that they have control over your feelings. I know for me, who always tries to be so tough, that's the dangerous thing."
Dangerously in love. Pretty sure I have said the same thing to the forever-love-of-my-life about a trillion times.
Wise words. Everyone should listen to my girl.

My husband and I met at work :) It does make for a pretty great story!
