User blog comment:Phin68/Who do you ship? Ferb Vanessa or Ferb Gretchen/@comment-1493100-20090807023535

I think Ferb/Gretchen works better on more levels than Ferb/Vanessa because Gretchen is a good honest girl. She would treat him right, and not maybe cast him aside like Vanessa would once someone else came along. Vanessa is older, and more than likely wants someone her own age (like Johnny). Ferb & Gretchen are not like Padme & Anakin from Star Wars, too. If Ferb & Vanessa did hook up, I bet the same thing with Padme & Anakin would happen to them, or at least a thing like that would happen. Plus, Gretchen reminds me of my girlfriend too (I won't say her name on here for sure, but she does). And like JeremyCreek said, maybe Ferb/Gretchen would turn out like Jacobo/Tasumi.
