Wholesome and Romantic Disney Scenes That Prove Disney Characters Have Better Love Lives Than Most Of Us
Check out these tiny romantic details that you probably missed the first 100 times you watched these films.
If you grew up on Disney movies, you probably remember how effortlessly they made romance look magical, dramatic, and just a little bit impossible to match in real life. From moonlit dances to grand gestures, these films set the bar high for what love could look like.
These days, Disney stories are often a little more practical, and not every lead character even gets a love interest. But the classic films still deliver plenty of sweet moments, especially the quieter ones that are easy to miss the first time around.
Here are 25 wholesome Disney romance scenes that still hit right in the heart.
The way Eugene watches Rapunzel watching the lanterns...
Seriously, get you a man who looks at you like Eugene looks at her!
Some of these moments are small, but they say a lot.
When they hid in the doorway with cupcakes...
What's more romantic than dessert?
The way Eugene looks at her after she's had her hair braided...
He is feeling that hair on her!
The look on Li Shang's face when Ping (Mulan) beats him...
A lot of people have pointed out that Li Shang is totally attracted to Ping (whom he believes is a man) in this moment and have called him the first bisexual Disney 'Prince' character, and we're here for it!
How devastated Li Shang looks when Mulan leaves...
He was shattered when she left, and we don't blame him. Also, can we not forget what a banger 'I'll Make A Man Out Of You' was? Donny Osmond gave this film everything he had!
That one definitely lingered longer than most.

Such a tender moment! You can tell he spent time in the gym.

Literally the sweetest moment of all time.

How sweet!

Seriously, such a beautifully underrated moment!
When Belle shows Beast she doesn't even care!
Meet your man in the middle... always!
It is the little gestures that make these scenes stick.

The way Eric lifts Ariel...
So sweet and gives me '16 Going on 17' vibes from 'The Sound Of Music'.
When Ariel almost kills them both in a carriage crash, but Eric just smiles...
Just FYI, most men aren't this patient with your driving! LOL
When Kristoff catches Anna from a super high fall, and then just casually watches her walk away...
Again, he is way more patient than most guys!

Can we get a third movie with an actual wedding... please? Someone start the petition!
The face Aladdin makes the first time he ever sees Jasmine...
*Sigh*
