Everyone seems to like Billy and Drake more than the latter. I liked Cole probably more than them at the first, but what happened after was a little too bad to be redeeming. I always have a soft spot for him though!

I totally agree Forbuss, Cole was super great in the beginning but as time went by especially in Season 5 he was just ehh. Drake was a breath of fresh air in the stagnant void that was Phoebe's love life, he and her were soo amazing together. Billy and Phoebe were soo cute together, "Chick Flick" is absolutely amazingly cute especially when Phoebe is putting that make - up on Billy and they kissed <3

Well, again, we can't say everybody, because a lot of fans still think Cole was the best one for Phoebe and they're more than welcomed to their opinion. Had the show ended when it should've - after Season Three or at the latest, after Season Four - then I'd agree with them.
But since we have to include Season Five, I agree with you guys totally.
I do think that most fans agree that among the worst ones for Phoebe were Leslie, Dex and Coop.

I also didn't like Leslie or Dex, idk there was just something about them that instantly turned me off. and as the seasons that they were in went on, I started to dislike them more and more.

I always liked the idea of Phoebe loving Cole but both of them realizing it was too unhealthy for both of them and then she meets a newly human Drake and he slows her down and they have a low key but long lasting relationship contrasting with her and Cole.
Also Paige comes out as a lesbian in an episode where Phoebe confronts her sexuality maybe after hanging out with Kyra. Paige gets a girlfriend played by Lori Rom! Hehe

No, no. Paige hasn't done anything that shows that she's a lesbian, while Phoebe has shown that she definitely is - one who hasn't admitted it, but definitely one. The way she goes overboard regarding sex (trying too hard...), but not love (constantly just going on to the next, usually in the next episode), shows that.
That's why I like your idea of a low-key relationship with Drake, especially if it's just friends with benefits and doesn't include marriage and only includes Ladybug - no need for marriage to have that. But then I'd prefer Paige not having any either. Piper's two (and especially if you add Prudence Melinda to make three, and two brothers and a sister so they can't become Charmed - Chosen maybe, but not Charmed) and Phoebe's one would do me fine.

Pheobe always kinda gave me the vibe that she was in the closet too. lol especially with Kyra, but if I was a girl i'd become a lesbian for Chrisma Carpenter too  |

Yeah I hate how they all had three kids, I am fine with Piper having three it suits her whole mommy routine but Phoebe never the most is definitely two! I never thought about Phoebe actually being a lesbian those are some pretty good points. I only said Paige because her and Rose are wacky, out there, and awesome she definitely would not blink at the idea of conforming to a specific sexuality I could see her as bi or pansexual. Although I like the idea that you guys throwing around about how Paige would also not get into a serious relationship. I think it would have been interesting to see them address how Paige does not need a romantic relationship etc. She is fine on her own. It would definitely speak to people who feel the same way. Yep I agree Kris , I love Charisma! Although I am definitely not attracted to her sexually, but I can see her beauty. |

While Cole was the most entertaining and in depth relationship to watch, I wanted either Jason or Dex to be with Phoebe in the end. Coop was a very forced relationship and I hated that it was so put together. What sounds really funny is when 2 people are just so effortlessly meant to be together, there's a natural magic to it, but because Coop was brought by "magic", it doesn't seem as "magical"...lol This play on words is cracking me up, but I think you guys know what I'm talking about. As a disclaimer, I'll say that while I enjoyed the story with Cole the best, he was the worst for her because he was a demon, so that is why he is in last place for who was actually best for Phoebs.
1. Dex
2. Jason
3. Leslie
4. Drake
5. Cole

If Phoebe is to be with Cole, I would prefer if he had remained half-demon. Phoebe (and her sisters) need to grow up and reject their third-grade morality. Any of them could still marry a mortal and he could have still ended up as a monster.

My top three guys for Phoebe would've been Drake, Billy and season 2 Cupid then Cole only because she didn't accept him fully the good, bad and ugly then Jason and finally Coop, Lesley and Dex at the bottom 'cause I hated them horribly.

Which episodes have Drake in them? I don't like S7 but I'd like to see another good pair for Phoebe. I don't hate Coop but I thought she had more chemistry with S2 Cupid?

I'm going to repeat from Page One since my opinion hasn't changed.
The Men in Phoebe's Life::
1. Leo - not as a lover, but as a friend and guide who was always there for her. Can't say that about any other man in Phoebe's life.
2. Victor - Phoebe was always Daddy's little girl and because she never grew up - it was always all about her - he should've remained the most important man in her life.
3. Billy of Season 2 - Even though he was a fantasy guy to end all fantasy guys, he was so great for her! You never saw her that dreamy about anyone else. When Billie first showed up, I truly thought that she was another visitor from the future - the daughter whose sperm donor Phoebe had been looking for - named after Billy from "Kill it Before it Dies" rather than just named that so they could have "Kill Billie, Vol 1" and "Kill Billie, Vol 2".
4. Cupid of S2. I loved Phoebs best when she was with him.
5. Cole of early S3. I loved Phoebs second-best when she was with him before she knew that he was a demon. She was so excited and so happy and so in love. Too bad she was always in love with the lawyer and not the demon he truly was.
6. Drake of S7. I loved Phoebe third-best when she was with him. He brought my Phoebs back! Oh, had I missed her!! Hadn't seen her since she lied to Prue about vanquishing Cole.
The rest I'll just clump together as bottom place. Couldn't stand PhoeME when she was with those other guys, so I couldn't stand those guys. They were all fantasy guys when she so desperately needed a very hard slap of reality. An exception would be Clay who wouldn't even make the list.

I like Phoebe with season 2 Cupid. Why didn't they just have those two end up since Phoebe ended up with Cupid anyway? It's confusing how the writers think.

He's in 7x14: Carpe Demon (which I admit, made me roll my eyes the first time I watched it), 7x15, Show Ghouls (one of my all-time favorite episodes) and 7x16, Seven Year Witch (which does too much with Cole and Piper and not enough with Phoebe and Drake.) |

Ok thank you!! I'll watch those 3 as I'm not a big fan of S7 myself.

I'd have enjoyed them more as endgame. They had a lot of chemistry. In all honesty, since I don't trust Kern amd the staff. I think they forgot they introduced him? |

Maybe but I also LOVE Phoebe and Drake. So much chemistry and Drake got along with Phoebe's sisters swimmingly too - if they ended at S7, brought Henry in for Paige and had Drake somehow survive, those 3 endgame couples would have been amazing. Phoebe with Drake seemed a lot like S1-S2 Phoebe with her liveliness and innocence.

The only two I wanted her with were Cole and Drake.
1. Cole will always be number one to me despite everything. They had a good story and a ton of chemistry. My wish: Most of season 5 did not happen. Cole went a little downhill after losing Phoebe but did not go completely crazy. He pulled himself together partway through the season with Darryl's help. Phoebe focuses on magic and saving innocents, at first as a way to make up for her stint as the evil queen and then just because she rediscovered her love of magic. She and Cole have a shaky friendship at the end of season 5. They reunite in season 6 and Chris is revealed to be their child who just stole whitelighter powers for his plan.
2. Drake was the only other guy I thought she clicked with in a way I hadn't seen since Cole.

Phoebe with Drake seemed a lot like S1-S2 Phoebe with her liveliness and innocence. *nods* Exactly so. If Henry's story had been used in Season Seven rather than obsessive Brody (didn't we already see that storyline with Cole and Phoebe in S5? Just as boring...), what a final season that could've been. Even if I would've preferred PhoeME ending up with no one except Ladybug, especially if Drake still died, but died with Phoebe pregnant with her only daughter - Ladybug - especially if was shown in the flashforward that she and Wyatt and Chris and Paige and Henry's adopted son and/or daughter were the *only* children in the next generation so no one had three children and there was no chance for a new Power of Three. |
