Sure, Canadians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir just scored a record-breaking combined score of 206.07 at the Pyeongchang Olympics to become the most-decorated figure skaters in history, but that鈥檚 not what everyone鈥檚 talking about.
The real question that seems to be on everyone鈥檚 mind is the age-old question: 鈥淎re they or aren鈥檛 they?鈥
In love. Are they in love?!
The longtime ice dancing partners performed a steamy free skate to the song 鈥淩oxanne鈥 from the film 鈥淢oulin Rouge鈥 in their final competition before retirement that left many fans weak in the knees and sharing how they felt about the performance online.
just skated. Winter Olympics are over. They melted all of the ice. Everyone is pregnant. We're all Canadian now.

If that wasn鈥檛 a gold medal winning skate, there has never been one. Oh. My. Goodness. *sobbing*
鈥 Kathleen Smith (@KikkiPlanet)
This just in: Scott Moir just told Tessa Virtue "you complete me". In related news, Canada will be closed for meltdown renovations until 2023.

Commentators praised the skaters for their technical prowess and dominance in the sport during the broadcast, the conversation online however, was decidedly different.
Social media users took to their keyboards to declare that Virtue and Moir are in love despite the pair鈥檚 repeated assertions to the contrary.
you can鈥檛 tell me the tessa virtue and scott moir aren鈥檛 in love.

If you watched Virtue and Moir鈥檚 gold medal performance tonight, technically you are a champion too*.
鈥 Anne T. Donahue (@annetdonahue)
*OF TRUE LOVE.
Okay, so I thought I was madly in love with my husband who is basically perfect but I've been looking at Virtue and Moir gifs all night and I'm pretty sure what we have is garbage and I have to leave him now.

Damn it.
Getting word that the New York Times is pulling all their reporters off the Russia story to investigate whether Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue are secretly in love
鈥 JAke a look, y'all (@JakeMHS)
Over their 20-year career together, the skaters have been dogged by questions about their relationship thanks to their undeniable on-ice chemistry.
The skaters maintain the relationship is platonic, although their former coach Paul MacIntosh did tell The Canadian Press earlier this year that the pair briefly dated when Moir was nine and Virtue was just seven.
As adorable as that is, fans of the athletes don鈥檛 appear to be satisfied that the romance ended all those years ago.
Those two are Oscar level actors if they're not really in love with each other.

When will Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue finally admit that they're in love???
鈥 catherine with a c (@_catherineellis)
Sure, sex is real great, but have you ever platonically ice-danced with your best friend?
鈥 Courtney Theriault (@cspotweet)
Me, this morning: "Who the hell are Virtue and Moir?"
鈥 Geraldine (@everywhereist)
Me, this evening, opening weeping and screaming at the TV: "JUST TELL TESSA YOU LOVE HER."
A number of social media users expressed their disappointment that Moir had not proposed to Virtue following their performance.
So is Scott going to propose on the podium or...??
鈥 Morgan (@miss_meaux)
i hope are enjoying their honeymoon as i assume they were secretly married by Justin Trudeau last night
鈥 Jeff Abbott (@JeffAbbott)
Nevermind a gold medal, it seems most of Canada will be disappointed with Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir's free skate if it doesn't end with a proposal and wedding.
鈥 Jordan Kanygin (@CTVJKanygin)
The pair was even credited, by a few Twitter users, with changing ice dancing鈥檚 popularity.
Used to hate ice dancing. made me fall in love. Now actively wondering whether it鈥檚 too late for me to take up the sport...
鈥 Shaina Goodman (@shainaleah)
Never took an interest in ice dancing until and took to the ice for their short program. Now I'm in love with both the sport and them. I'm Australian but all the way
鈥 Shauna Sheep (@Sheepieeee)
I'm freaking in love with Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir now, why'd I have to REALLY get into this sport just as they're leaving it?!
鈥 weiner soldier (@Aimdiddles)
A few viewers were so enamoured with Virtue and Moir鈥檚 performance that they decided it was worth moving countries for.
Is it possible to gain Canadian citizenship by pledging undying loyalty to their ice dancers?
鈥 Buttercup Underwood (@foswh)
Me, arriving at the Canadian border: Hi, hello, yes, hi, I would like to sign up for one of these platonic relationships with Scott Moir, please.
鈥 Laura-Michal (@LMBalderson)
Even Canadian movie star Ryan Reynolds joined in on the fun when he gave a shoutout to the Canadian figure skaters.
Go !!@CassieSharpe is a legend 鈥 makin鈥 it look easy. And thank you & for agreeing to raise my children as your own.
