Though romance isn't the main focus of MTV's Teen Wolf, it certainly plays a big part in the story. Like many teen dramas of its time, almost every main character experiences their fair share of romantic drama. From first love to heartbreak to missed opportunities, Scott and his pack experience it all in between fighting off evil supernatural creatures.
Some characters end up with their perfect match, like fan-favorite couple Stiles and Lydia, but others don't get their happy ending. Sometimes, characters leave the show due to actors' contracts or scheduling conflicts, while others are simply written out. In other cases, characters simply don't end up with the person they're most compatible with.
10 Jackson Whittemore: Brett Talbot
Jackson leaves the show before he can ever meet Brett Talbot, who is Liam's arch-nemesis — at least on the lacrosse field. Jackson and Brett could have followed an enemies-to-lovers path had they been in Beacon Hills at the same time.
Jackson and Brett both like to think that they're the best players on the field — often, they are — and they carry themselves with an air of superiority and pride. However, when Jackson returns in season 6, he seems to have changed. His pairing with Ethan isn't necessarily incompatible, but because fans haven't seen either of them for a long time, it seems random and forced. Brett's personality could complement Jackson's, and their friendly rivalry could be fun.
9 Theo Raeken: No One
As one of the evilest antagonists in Teen Wolf, Theo destroys everything he touches. He has a brief relationship with Tracy, who dies because of him. Theo also ruins relationships he isn't part of himself, like Scott and Stiles' friendship.
For everybody else's sake, nobody should have to be romantically involved with Theo. He's a manipulator, a murderer, and his character's redemption arc doesn't get quite enough screen time to convince viewers that he's one of the good guys now. While some fans have theorized that he could be a good match for Liam after their adventures in season 6, Liam would be better off without him.
8 Isaac Lahey: Danny Māhealani
Isaac's last scene in the series sees him leaving Beacon Hills with Chris Argent, both of them mourning Allison's death. Heartbroken that she didn't acknowledge him as she died in Scott's arms, Isaac must have felt rejected at the very least. Even while they are together, it's clear that Allison still loves Scott. For this reason alone, Isaac would be better off with someone else.
Danny breaks up with Ethan before he, too, mysteriously disappears from the town. He reveals that he knows about the supernatural, which means he'd be accepting of Isaac, who isn't quite as ruthless as Ethan is in season 3. Isaac and Danny share a similar sense of humor, a softness in their nature, and play on the same lacrosse team. They could have made a happy and unproblematic match.
7 Derek Hale: Jordan Parrish
Derek struggles with a series of failed romances in his time on Teen Wolf, including his lost first love, Paige. None of his partners after that seem right for him, with his worst pairing being Kate Argent. When Derek ages backward, Deputy Jordan Parrish has to deal with him at the sheriff's station.
When Derek becomes his normal self again, these two characters embark on several missions together with the rest of the pack, which proves they can work together. On a more personal level, they seem to have a similar, wry sense of humor, but Parrish's lighthearted demeanor would balance out Derek's intense seriousness.
6 Melissa McCall: Noah Stilinski
Throughout the course of the show, many fans were convinced that these two parents would become an item. They have an entertaining camaraderie and almost interact like a married couple. Since their sons are best friends, they're extremely familiar with each other, not to mention that they're both involved with the supernatural.
These two characters are also compatible in terms of where they are in life; they've both lost spouses and have raised children who have now grown up. In terms of career pathways, they both work for emergency response units and community services. Scott and Stiles could have become brothers by name as well as by nature had their parents become a couple.
5 Peter Hale: Jennifer Blake
Like Theo, Peter shouldn't really be romantically involved with anyone, and nor should Jennifer Blake, for that matter. However, these two might just deserve each other.
Peter and Jennifer are both inherently evil, and they seem proud of their manipulative natures. They're both very gifted at pretending to be people they're not and are both very powerful supernatural creatures. Had they gotten to know each other, they may have admired each other's skills and been drawn to each other for this very reason.
4 Malia Tate: Cora Hale (Or Kira Yukimura)
Malia could manage very well on her own and has proven that she certainly doesn't need a romantic partner. After a sweet but ultimately failed relationship with Stiles, Malia does well enough on her own, though she does seem lonely without her friends. In season 6, she and Scott become what is one of Teen Wolf's most unexpected pairings.
Their relationship always feels forced, and Malia might have been just as happy alone. However, she does share something like chemistry with Kira, especially when she helps her channel her kitsune power. Another character Malia could have gelled with is Cora, who she never meets. Cora and Malia radiate similar energy. They're both determined fighters who prefer to get straight to the point, and it's a shame they never get to share a scene.
3 Liam Dunbar: No One
Liam's relationship with Hayden is uncannily similar to Scott and Allison's. In turn, Scott and Allison's relationship is similar to Derk and Paige's. Like his predecessors, Liam is torn between two worlds when it's obvious he should be focusing on himself. He's too young to be in a serious relationship, especially when he's learning to be a werewolf.
When Hayden moves away, Liam doesn't dwell on their past relationship for too long. He becomes a much better friend to Mason and a more dedicated member of Scott's pack now that he's single. Even if his relationship is sweet, as a growing young man, he's better off on his own so that he can figure out what kind of person he wants to be.
2 Lydia Martin: Stiles Stilinski
The relationship between Stiles and Lydia evolves very slowly across the six seasons. They begin as distant acquaintances before becoming investigative partners, then friends. For a long time, they remain friends, though they share many romantically charged moments.
When they finally do become a couple, it makes total sense. In moments of strife, they would often turn to each other for comfort. When investigating local mysteries, their intellects proved to be perfectly matched. Their conversations are never awkward thanks to their easy rapport and deep understanding of each other. Even their friends can see that they're meant to be.
1 Scott McCall: Allison Argent
Like Stiles and Lydia's relationship, Scott and Allison's feels like it's meant to be from the very beginning. Their romance is reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet, with Allison's father forbidding her from seeing Scott. At other times, they have a few moments of fairytale-like peace.
However, what really proves that Scott and Allison are meant to be is how they react under pressure. Allison isn't afraid to step away from Scott to live her own life, and she proves that she can manage on her own. Over time, Scott proves the same. But when Allison dies, she confesses that she still loves him. Scott feels deeply connected to Allison long after she's gone, and even attributes his survival to her when he's almost killed by the Beast.
