The perfect way to relax on a rainy is to pull out the ol’ laptop and watch a movie in bed. But what kind of movie is the best to watch on these kinds of days? If you want to believe in love again, the obvious choice is a romance, but on the other hand, you want a movie you can come away from feeling happy, rather than sad. Hence the birth of the magnificent genre called romantic-comedy/”rom-com” for short. With that being said, here’s a list I’ve compiled of some of my favorite rom-coms and why you should watch them on rainy days, or any day for that matter.

1. "Stuck in Love"

  • American romantic comedy-drama
  • Lily Collins stars in another magnificent rom-com
  • One of Logan Lerman’s best movies since The Perks
  • Sam is such a BADASS
  • Lou is the most precious character who you’ll love forever
  • 3 different intertwining love stories
  • A story about writers and books also!!

2. "Love, Rosie"


  • British-German romantic comedy-drama
  • Sam Claflin AND Lily Collins in one movie!!
  • A massively underrated film that no one knows about
  • Cool British accents
  • Frustrating, yet clever
  • Centered around the most precious friendship ever!!
  • “You deserve someone who loves you with every beat of his heart.” *AHHHH*

3. "27 Dresses"

  • Makes dating your ex-stepbrother seem totally cool

    • 5. "What’s Your Number?"

    • Romantic comedy
    • The title doesn’t mean what you think it means
    • Vastly underrated
    • Anna Faris is so darn hilarious
    • Two of the Marvel superhero Chris’s in this movie (Chris Evans and Chris Pratt)

    6. "Crazy, Stupid, Love"

    • American romantic comedy-drama
    • Two words: HEATH LEDGER
    • Based on Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew”
    • Kat Stratford doesn’t deal will anyone’s BS
    • Unforgettable music number by Patrick Verona
    • Joseph Gordon Levitt was so YOUNG AND ADORABLE
    • Kat’s poem at the end *sobs eternally*

    8. "50 First Dates"

    • American romantic comedy
    • Fairly new movie
    • Based on a true story
    • The main character is a comedian and does stand up shows, so there’s added humor inside of an already funny movie
    • Portrays the lives and struggles of Pakistani Americans
    • Kumail Nanjiani is a gem!!!

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
