It really depends. I mean, if we're talking real life people such as celebs... then no. If not, then... maybe. Again, it depends on how much you actually truly ship them. imo, I feel like it might be fine if the people your shipping are your friends or something. idk... that's just my two cents on this thing. Don't listen to me. ;w; I mean, if you're shipping a person with another person like how most ships usually work... than it is a little on the awkward side. Basically, if you're shipping them with someone with a person they don't want to be with than yeah...
One couple I do ship in real life with all my heart is Dove Cameron and Thomas Doherty. I mean... HOW CAN YOU NOT SHIP THEM? <3
