Why does Leela always turns her back on fry?

Why cant Fry and Leela be together?
They really like echtother, so why cant Leela accept Fry? 

It wont ruin the show if they make Leela and Fry to a couple.
That could actually be funny

They will be a couple... But before, we have to suffer

Maddie & David, Joel & Maggie, Lois & Clark... once the sexual tension breaks, that's the end.

the only time leela was interested in fry was when he had those worms that made made him smarter,stronger ect but then fry had to go and make an idiot out of himself...

The way I see it, it wouldn't totally destroy the series if they were a couple.  I mean, look at Everybody Loves Raymond.  That show thrives off of the central idea that two people care about each other enough to get married and have kids.  And it consistantly ranks as one of the most watched TV shows and was nominated for numerous Emmys!  I don't think the show needs to head in that direction, but I'm guessing that about half of the posters here think that it will eventually happen or be implied.  Maybe in the last season, which I'm hoping won't be for a while.  It's like the season finale, should-have-been-series, of the X-Files where it's revealed that Mulder and Scully did have a thing for each other, and our suspicions concerning Scully's baby were put to rest, as we now know that Mulder's a sperm-donating dad.  If Fox hadn't demanded another season, I think that would've been a wonderfully fitting conclusion.  But we're not talking about the X-Files, we're talking about Futurama.  So, if the writers decide to make us wait, at least keep dropping the hints and if you make them a couple, let's hope it's not as predictable as "Friends".  It'd be so depressin to hear Fry screaming, "We were on a break!" 

Yes, the only thing Fry should do is to show Leela how much he loves her.
And grow up a little, of course

Yeah agree Fry and leela's romance would end show pretty fast. p.s I like your fan fiction stories a lot BumbleBeeTheta! keep up the good work...

She does like him, it's obvious, but maby she's holding off in case she finds another cyclops.  If/when she does.  Maby in the series finale, the very very last episode, (which hopefully won't be for about 10 years) she'll find out that either she is a mutant, or she is THE last cyclops and give up searching and accept Fry.  That's what I think. 

It would be SO clichè..

I hope they don't bring Fry and Leela together. To make them interesting to eachother would ruin their unique personalities.

Although he is in his mid-twenties Fry is nothing more than a big teenager, and thats what makes him funny. He and Bender is just trying to have a good time and basically goof off. He may go out on occasional dates (as with Amy) or try to hook up with a girl on The Hip Joint (Loves Labour...), but he is not interested in a lasting relationship. Ofcourse he is interested in Leela (he is a guy after all), but I think he has settled down to the fact that they are just good freinds. And I like the Fry I see now (Around "Lesser of two Evils" ): helping his freinds, goofing off, being the perfect foil for Bender and yet still pretty innocent to the world of 3000.

Leela, well I always liked Leela. She's an independant strong-willed woman that binds the Planet Express together and makes sure that the jobs is actually been done. She is funny because she takes everything as it comes and nothing seems to give her pause or scare her (well, except waking up beside the Zapper, but who wouldn't be shocked by this. I know I would  ) She is not as physically funny as Fry, her strength is more the verbal side of it, and especially when reacting to some of Fry's goofines. She likes Fry and probably considers him a very good freind. Since she is such a serious person (she was after all a cop once) I think she likes the fact that Fry makes her look at life with more childlike joy, for example the scene in the moon lander in "The Series has Landed". And she was really touched by Fry's attempt to by her a gift in "X-mas Story", it made her feel a lot less lonely.

But I hope that they will never be a couple because that would ruin all theese fine things in their freindship that I see developing. Differences can strengten a freindship, but if they are as fundamentally opposite as Fry's and Leela's is they could ruin a relationship (and here I'm speaking from experience    ). If Fry should be "mate-material" to Leela he had to become much more grown up, and then I think his chracter is ruined.

And just to forestall the obvious response:

I know: It's just a cartoon. But I like Futurama very much: it's funny, it has great characters, pretty good stories and the background jokes is sometimes just too hillarious to handle. So I would be displeased if they very trying for something that I felt could ruin the show.

But if it was the absolutely, certified, cross-your-heart-and-hope-to-die last season/episodes of Futurama ever, by all means go for it if thats what is naturally.

Okay I'll stop now.   

 

Ahhhhh!  The zombie threads are attacking!  Where's my shotgun?

Welcome to PEEL, by the way.

miav.. is enybody out there

k thx again

Fry is stupider and hass less to loose, Leela is smarter and more successful, so she needs to work harder to find the perfect guy, However they are both extremely desperste, so it's only a matter of time, maybe even a love scene for the movie
