I used to think Julia. But the more I watch DS, the less appropriate that seems. In order for the relationship to succeed, both of them would have to do substantial amounts of therapy (and in Barnabas' case, some growing up emotionally).
None of the SYTs really deserve a relationship that would have permanently objectified them. Also, he's got the attention span of a two-year-old. When they got older and he got bored?
As for Angelique, the problem with her is that she's pathologically jealous and again, he's got the attention span of a two-year-old. Since neither of them seem capable of restricting their domestic problems to themselves, that spells disaster for the greater geographic area.

What I would have liked to see would have been a relationship with Kitty, Lady Hampshire the hard-nosed, gold-digging Kitty, Lady Hampshire. Not the soppy Josette reincarnation.
She's got all the right qualities:
1. SYT wrappings
2. Intelligence to pretend to be what he's after
3. Shrewdness to keep him from straying too badly
4. Dispassionate enough not to care if he did discreetly.
Okay, not the stuff o'dreams, but it would have been interesting to watch and less dangerous for the citizens of Collinsport.
