22 'Happily Ever After' Movie Couples Who Never Stood a Chance Past the End Credits

Once you've experienced a toxic relationship firsthand (and managed to escape its clutches), the warning signs and the red flags of that relationship become painfully obvious. As a bystander—watching a friend go back to their ex or when you're sitting in the movie theater—bad relationships set off every siren and warning call in your brain. 

But oftentimes, in romcoms, TV shows, and movies, it seems like these toxic traits are strangely glorified. Opposites attracting, public fights that lead to a make-out session, and hating your significant other's in-laws are all common tropes in the entertainment industry. So while we're constantly inundated with poisonous relationships on-screen, getting force-fed the idea that it all works out in the end, experienced women know better than that. We can smell a lost-cause bad boy from a mile away! 

Here are some of the most egregiously toxic relationships from the silver screen that tried to trick us into thinking the characters lived 'Happily ever after'—but we know the truth.
