9 TV Love Triangle Losers We Feel Kinda Sorry For

What becomes of the TV brokenhearted? It seems they either eventually find happiness, get their own spinoff, or have to move their sorry selves back to Pittsburgh. From Dawson to Aiden, here are 9 TV love triangle losers that always have a place in our hearts.

Dawson Leery, 'Dawson's Creek'

Joey Potter pined over Dawson throughout Capeside High and beyond, and although she and Pacey had some pretty sweet times together (he bought her A WALL), we always wanted her to end up with her OG BFF/crush. Fast forward to the last scene of the series when she and P are cuddled up all cute-like on a couch and lonely Dawson only has the comforts of his one first love... THE CINEMA. Don't cry, Dawson. Seriously. Stop. You look ridiculous.

Anna Stern, 'The OC'

First of all, Anna's early 2000s hat game was STRONG. She actually knew about comic books, and she had a fun, breezy pixie cut! Don't get me wrong, she's no Summer Roberts, but she deserved love just the same. Anna was so burned by being rejected by Seth Cohen that she had to go back to Pittsburgh. That's almost as bad as Chino. Ew. 

Dean Forester, 'Gilmore Girls'

Oh, sweet, sweet, boring Dean. Stars Hollow's boy-next-door dud was never enough for bookish Rory, no matter how much Tolstoy he read. Ror dumped him for Jess (another poor life choice) and thus he went on to marry the equally dull Lindsay. They crashed and burned when he cheated with Rory (is everyone the worst?), but of course she moved on to bigger and wealthier things. Poor Dean. He's probably still working at Doose's. Clean up on aisle 5! 

Noel Crane, 'Felicity'

Who doesn't just want to pinch Scott Foley's adorable cheeks? This was the WB love triangle to end all love triangles that had everyone taking sides. Yes, things got all wacko and time-travely in that final season, but of course she chose her longtime object of affection, Ben. Goes to show you that nice guys finish last. 

Emily Waltham, 'Friends'

You must be some sort of a monster if you don't root for Ross and Rachel -- you can't come between someone and their lobster! Emily may have been kind of shrill and even unlikable at times, but even the biggest Bs don't deserve to hear someone else's name uttered at their own wedding. But nobody stood a chance when it came to these two. Julie? Mona? Paolo? JOEY? Pssshh. BYE. 

Brenda Walsh, 'Beverly Hills, 90210'

You know that thing of when you go to Paris for the summer and your best friend hooks up with your boyfriend? Yeah -- that's called PULLING A KELLY. Brenda's no angel, but come on. 

Roy Anderson, 'The Office'

Pam's former fiancé Roy was introduced as kind of a controlling jerk as a set up to make audiences fall for the epic office romance that was Jim and Pam. But once Jam became official, we started feeling a little bad for schlubby, sad sack Roy. Fortunately, he was redeemed when Pam and Jim showed up at his wedding and he turned out to be a successful, lucky-in-love sweetie. 

Aiden Shaw, 'Sex and the City'

It's hard to nail down the self-involved Carrie Bradshaw, and woodworkin, KFC eatin' Aiden certainly couldn't cut it if Big was in the picture. She broke his heart not once, but twice. (Let's just not mention the second movie.) Carrie wouldn't wear her engagement ring, she hated his nice dog and sweet country house, and she married Big... even after he left her at the altar. 

Addison Montgomery, 'Grey's Anatomy'

"Pick me. Choose me. Love me." Derek did choose you, Meredith, but we all know how well things turned out for him. (WOMP. WOMP. SAD FACE.) JK -- Mer and Der are the best "Grey''s couple of all time. Viewers were poised to hate McDreamy's ex-wife Addison upon learning she cheated on him with his best friend, but she ended up being so badass and beloved that she got her own spinoff. Honestly, we don't feel sorry for her because she landed her share of hotties and things worked out pretty, pretty well for her overall.
