The main pairings in GMW are [[Cory/Topanga]] and [[Riley/Lucas]], which the latter is often compared with the other due to Cory & Topanga's beginnings. Another popular pairing is [[Riley/Maya]], probably inspired by the [[Cory/Shawn]] from the original fandom and how close they are as friends. The pairing [[Maya/Lucas]] is becoming quite popular, which is semi-[[canon]] due to the first episode where Maya dated and broke up with Lucas very briefly in order to introduce Riley to him. [[Maya/Josh]] quickly became popular after it was revealed that Maya has a crush on him.
