In romance movies the couple lives happily ever, but once the director says "cut," the actors go their separate ways. Most of the time we leave the theater wishing the pair would turn their on-screen romance into a reality. Sometimes this happens, like Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams of 'The Notebook,' and other times we're left wondering if the rumors are true. Recently, it's been all about ' The Twilight Saga' duo Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson -- are they together or not?
'The Twilight Saga' began filming in 2008 in Canada. Kristen Stewart joined the cast and made it very clear that she was still with long time boyfriend Michael Angarano. The two were photographed all over Vancouver, holding hands, kissing, showing no signs of relationship problems.
But when it came time to film 'New Moon,' things began to change. Michael was seen less and the spotlight moved onto Pattinson. The pair attended concerts, went out for intimate dinners, and recently were spotted holding hands in Paris.
Harper's Bazaar chose the duo for their December cover story, resulting in a very intimate 'Newly Wed Game' type of interview. The article captured the actors in a different light, as they revealed things only a couple would know about one another.
Kristen Stewart sat down with ET's Samantha Harris and dished on the Robert Pattinson dating rumors, sort of. "The only way that I'm able to stay sane is to protect myself, and like, I know that it doesn't matter how you answer a question, it's going to tip," Stewart said. "Someone's going to say, 'She's totally with him,' or, 'No, I don't think she is,' so it's sort of like, I don't care."
According to every gossip magazine in the supermarket checkout line the pair is together and living happily ever after.
"The intrigue over Robert and Kristen stems from their youthful lust and passion, and on-and-off, whirlwind relationship," said Jared Shapiro, executive editor of Life & Style Weekly, the first weekly magazine to put Pattinson and Stewart on their cover. "It's part of the fascination, that while real, they are also part fantasy."
Should we wonder if these relationship rumors are for real or just part of a marketing scheme? After seeing the opening day numbers for 'New Moon,' it's clear the movie doesn't need any help in the marketing department.
Will the pair ever come clean on the relationship? "It's not like they're going to say OK, we'll stop now, we'll stop waiting outside your house," Stewart said of the media's interest in the relationship. "So, I'm just going to keep it to myself."
What do you think? Are they together or not? Do you think the media should just leave them alone?

this is why i look up to kristen! =] she keeps whats hers to herself, is so real and is probably a really great person, and doesnt try and make a big deal out of her fame or her supposed relationship with robert! if they are dating or not, it's there business, and the media should lay off them!

I agree with you here, i think she is just a genuine, kind person. And the media do need to lay off them, it must be hard tryin to keep ur private life to urself, and i guess thts the only reality they have. :)

Wow I don't believe she wants privacy in that department. If she did why was her relatioship with Michael Angaro not hidden? For heavens sakes they were smoking doobers outside togather. I tend to believe that the whole "keeping it sevret thing" is just something to fuel the movies poularity even more...a publicity stunt if you will. Perhaps they are dating who knows I imagine if so they'll come out and say either way after the last movie is released so they can be sure to stay in the public eye and keep fans interest.

I actually thought about that too. I thought that maybe this is just a publicity stunt. But the problem is the twilight saga doesn't need any of that. Hell, its even critic proof. No matter how bad the reviews are, people still watch it. So in terms of being more public about her relationship, it was easier for then when she was still with Angarano. She was popular back then after Twilight came out, but the on going filming of twilight made her a superstar. Which means if she goes public with Rob who is also a superstar, tabloids will have a field day and paparazzi's will hound them even more.

I think she's made the right decision. Just because she's become a celeb doesn't mean she needs to blab about every aspect of her personal life. If they're together, great! If not, great! The media should definitely lay off of them! :-)

I really look up to Kristen, I think she's amazing. I don't see why the media have to take so much interest! They should let them just have a bit of privacy I mean it's not too much to ask for. I think she deals with it really well. Keep it up! :) x

I refuse to believe she is dating Rob until they say it themselves. Why doesn't the media just stop publishing false stories about them? They held hands. So what? Friends can hold hands.

I think that if they are togeher, then that is good but if they dont want peopleto know righ now then that is their decision. The media is just trying to find stories to publish. I mean iI wish they would get together but if they want to keep it a secret then let them just lay off until they come out with it.
