During the week, I had a chance to watch one of the movies listed below for like the 1000th time, and I enjoyed it so much, and it got me thinking of the best RomComs ever. I then decided to compile a list in no particular order of the top ten best romantic comedies of all time.

You’ve got mail
Oblivious of each other’s identity, two business rivals meet online and begin an anonymous internet romance.
