"Confession time. I&amp;amp;#8217;ve had a crush on Ryan Reynolds since he was in Van Wilder. I can&amp;amp;#8217;t explain it. He&amp;amp;#8217;s one of those guys that definitely was friends with everyone back in high school and was probably voted &amp;amp;#8220;Best Looking&amp;amp;#8221; &amp;amp;#8220;Most Outgoing&amp;amp;#8221; and &amp;amp;#8220;Most Likely to Succeed&amp;amp;#8221; without it going to his head. He&amp;amp;#8217;s just one of those guys with the total package&amp;amp;#8212;and I sorta think he has no idea. I was super sad for him when he broke up with Scarlett Johansson but I don&amp;amp;#8217;t know, I just never thought they had any real heat. Maybe I was a tad jealous or maybe I knew deep down that something (or someone) better was out there waiting. Enter Blake Lively. I&amp;amp;#8217;ll admit that I wasn&amp;amp;#8217;t shocked when she was dating Leonardo DiCaprio over the summer. In Hollywood, he&amp;amp;#8217;s the equivalent of the cool senior that everyone wonders what he would be like to date&amp;amp;#8212;a rite of passage if you will. But when that fizzled and Blake and Ryan were spotted together? Maybe the Green Lantern didn&amp;amp;#8217;t do enough to show the world that they are made for each other&amp;amp;#8212;but I&amp;amp;#8217;m here to tell you that they are a perfect match! Granted, I know nothing about the inner workings of their relationship but from a purely outside perspective, Blake and Ryan just look like they are having fun with no frills. They don&amp;amp;#8217;t have this grand Hollywood romance. They somehow evade the paparazzi as much as possible. And they just look so darn happy and cute. Seriously, do either of them ever have a bad hair day or wear the wrong thing? Some highlights: 1. Back in October, Blake went to the Boston set of Ryan&amp;amp;#8217;s new movie R.I.P.D. to celebrate his 35th birthday. Blake presented her Maltipoo Penny wrapped in balloons to the birthday boy and watched him ride his bike around the set. Perfection. 2. One of my favorite dates was when they went to Connecticut for the annual Ridgefield Downtown Holiday Stroll, held hands and ate ice cream. I mean I cue the picture perfect Hallmark card right there! 3. Amid rumors that they&amp;amp;#8217;re looking for an apartment together in NYC, Blake and Ryan spent this past weekend enjoying the city together. According to Us Weekly, they brunched at hot spot Stanton Social, shopped for jeans at John Varvatos and sipped on frozen hot chocolate (peanut butter of course) at Serendipity. I want my husband and I to double date with them so badly! And the thing I love most about them? For the life of me, I can&amp;amp;#8217;t figure out a one name combo for them that even remotely makes sense. Are you obsessed with Ryan and Blake? What do you think makes them a great couple? Do you think they&amp;amp;#8217;ll make it? Tell me what you think in the comments section! Want more on Blake and Ryan? Of course you do! * Blake Lively Brought 40 Pairs (!!)
