Here are some of the points why ‘The Big Bang Theory’ fans think Shamy is a more romantic couple than Lenny —
1/3
They have so much in common.
Unlike the popular opinion ‘Opposites attract!’, this couple proved otherwise. Sheldon and Amy had so much in common that these two didn’t just fall for each other’s looks, they deeply loved and admired one another’s intellect too. Though a few ‘The Big Bang Theory’ fans find Lenny a more romantic couple, the others believe Shamy’s love journey is beyond any comparison. Another fact the audience admires is that physical intimacy wasn’t the reason for the love spark between them. Sheldon and Amy loved each other before they did anything physical.
2/3
Amy respects Sheldon’s boundaries.
Sheldon is a very complicated man who is uncomfortable with human interaction especially physical intimacy whereas Amy is a girl who loves hugs and kisses. Time and again, she wanted to kiss and hug Sheldon but did not because of Sheldon’s shield of discomfort. However, with events taking interesting turns, they finally end up married to each other.
3/3
Amy knows Sheldon more than he knows himself, cute?
From cooking his favorite pasta with hot dogs to giving him strawberry Nesquick to dressing as a Harry Potter character, she always happened to know what Sheldon wanted. Impressive isn’t it?
