Day 9 - Your least favorite couple

Rachel Berry/Finn Hudson
Mostly I could not stand Finn. Rachel has her faults; she has from day one. No one ever let her forget them. She was pushy, arrogant, and sent Sunshine to a crack house - definitely not of the good, and they are constantly thrown at her. Finn, on the other hand, usually received a pass. He leads Rachel on to get her back to Glee while he's with Quinn; he goes after Quinn while she's with Sam; he lies about having sex with Santana - no one holds him accountable for these.
I don't care for the pairing because I think it brings out the worst in both of them. Rachel becomes a desperate girl clinging to him while Finn's insecurities over his popularity come to the fore. I just think the pairing weakens both of them. I feel Rachel is meant for bigger and brighter places than Lima while Finn strikes me as a hometown boy. While I believe opposites attract, I don't feel Finn has the hunger to move above and beyond Lima to make the relationship work.
