I want someone to look at me the way Harry looks at Louis. I mean, can we just please talk about their chemistry? Please? 2 Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles from One Direction Jim and Pam’s relationship will always break my heart because 1) they’re not married to each other in real life and 2) I may never be in a relationship like this.
Okay so we’ve broken down and answered the question, “What does OTP mean?” Now let’s talk about our favorite one true pairings. I get personally offended when I realize they’ll never be a couple IRL (in real life). My current OTP? Aziz and Francesca in Master of None. OTP doesn’t always just refer to a romantic relationship but can refer to friendships or even pairing a person with food.Įven if you’re not a Tumblr user, we’re sure you’ve shipped two of your favorite characters together before. Although these terms are a little less popular, they come in handy when you can’t choose just one OTP. Other examples of OTP are TTP and OTT, which translate to “Two True Pairings” and “One True Threesome” respectively. This is basically just an example of how intense fandoms can get.
This is the official pairing in the show itself – one that wasn’t imagined by fans.
But a fan’s OTP is the ultimate ship of all.Īnd for all you overachievers, another related word is “canon,” which means official. Fans will also use the word “ship,” short for relationship, or “shipping” to describe two characters they think should be in a relationship. And since Tumblr is the ultimate bank of fanfiction, the term is mostly used on that platform. Standing for “One True Pair” or “One True Pairing,” OTP describes someone’s favorite couple pairing in a fandom or fiction. Ultimately, that’s what the OTP acronym is about. Life’s just a little more interesting when you’re living vicariously through fictional characters.īut sometimes the problem with this is that you get so lost in the characters and their lives that you try to imagine what their lives would be like if you were the one calling the shots. When our own lives get too mundane, we divert our attention to the stories on TV, in movies and in books. Sometimes, the whole point of reading books and watching movies is to get lost in someone else’s world.
