Whether you’re single or in a committed relationship, you're likely still hopeful that your love life will one day resemble the romances in the movies. Like the teen couples you admired on television back in the day, these classic silver-screen romances offered an inside look at the highs and lows of relationships before it was your turn to play the field. Through the breakups, the make-ups and the happily-ever-afters, you were right there with them.

And whereas relationships on TV have always unfolded gradually, films condense the rollercoaster of emotions into one sitting, making movie romances that much more intense. Which is why you never forgot these 25 Teen Movie Couples You Idolized Growing Up.
