"She’s the love interest of Barry Allen, who is The Flash. She’s the romantic little number in the show. She’s kind of Barry’s support. She is like the Lois Lane to Superman. She’s there for him throughout all of his mishaps during the show. She’s just kind of his rock.”- Candice Patton

“Barry and Iris are childhood best friends. He has lived with Iris and her father since they were children when his father was accused and incarcerated for killing his mother. The two are incredibly close and she knows him like the back of her hand. I describe them as each other’s
‘true north’ in this crazy world. She believes in him even when others don’t. I think we all want someone like that. Someone who roots for us, and lightens our load in this life.”
- Candice Patton

"[Iris] is the love of his life and that's not going to change, I don't think." - Grant Gustin

"No matter what happens, Barry and Iris always seem to find their way back to each other" or "It's kind of a love story that travels through time." - Candice Patton CTV Interview

Continue. Thanks to Elektra for the title idea. Bringing over from the last thread

Candice thinks Iris is aware of her feelings for Barry but she's not ready to acknowledge they exist. Plus, she loves Eddie right now.

Iris doesn't suspect Barry is #TheFlash because they are supposed to tell each other everything and she trusts him with her life

Ditto on the title being awesome.

It's especially poignant given how Flash includes both Barry and Iris time traveling and alternate timelines... Their love is gonna last through time and all kinds of timey-whimey twists quite literally.

Hi I don't know if I have to be added to make a comment but here goes.
Firstly I believe that Eddie and Iris must break up this season; there has been so liitle investment in his character and relationship with Iris that I can never root for them. There is no cliffhanger in continuing that relationship. I am trying to figure out what the writers are doing by making Eddie the 'emotionally stable' one; the apparent voice of reason, the only man who wants to tell Iris the truth.Why are they making Eddie into a saint? It's not like the audience cares about him that much.
Both AK and CP have repeated that Iris loves Eddie right now, does this mean that we should not expect a breakup? Or is it a diversion to create a twist in the final episodes.Its like they are selling Eddie /Iris in the media but not onscreen.
I also have a problem with the secret; Iris has been kept in the dark all season so that she can be pissed in the final episodes? IMO this secret can do several things.:
-further delay a relationship with Barry
- Eddie can use it to his advantage by telling Iris he was the one who wanted to come clean while the other men wanted to keep her in the dark...thereby strengthening their relationship.
- add layers to WestAllen by showing Barry and Iris' love can overcome anything.
But fact is Barry has most to lose from the lie.
