Gretchen Rossi vs. Tamra Barney When Gretchen Rossi bounced onto the screen in Season 4, all smiles and sparkle, it seemed she would inevitably become a target for Tamra Barney's scorn. The battle of the bleached blondes lasted all season long, culminating with Tamra crooning to her co-star with mock sympathy, "Oh you're such a f-cking victim." Ouch. Make Up or Break Up?? Will these two ever air kiss and make up? They're more likely to go brunette than bond. Friends just don't get friends naked wasted.

Bethenny Frankel vs. Kelly Killoren Bensimon In New York, status is everything. At least that's what the Real Housewives of New York City would have you believe. According to Kelly Bensimon, Bethenny's naturally thin arm is desperately clinging to the lowest rung of Manhattan's social ladder, whereas Kelly is just naturally better than everyone else. Make Up or Break Up?? If these two get a shot at a third season together, they'll still be playing the game of who's better, who runs this town, who's "up here," and who's "down there."

Ramona Singer vs. LuAnn de Lesseps Don't remind the Countess that she's married (or was married) to an older guy. When Ramona estimates that the Count is "like twice" the Countess' age, LuAnn looks ready to crack Ramona in the cheekbone with such force that no amount of Tru Renewal cream could repair the damage. But the Countess is a lady through and through, so instead she contested that the Count is only 15 years her senior, which doesn't make him old (except that it sort of does.) Besides, she continued, Ramona has weird googly eyes and no manners whatsoever and a husband that isn't really all that good-looking either. Gee Countess, how do you really feel? Make Up or Break Up?? These two ladies have come to a stalemate. Ramona is confrontational, but it's hard to argue with a Countess who won't crack -- even when provoked.

Ramona Singer vs. Simon van Kempen We'd be remiss if our feud countdown didn't include the ongoing hate-fest between Ramona Singer and the sixth Real Housewife of New York, Simon van Kempen. Ramona made no secret about her distaste for Simon, so it was something of a shock when the duo went from dueling to getting down on the dance floor. Make Up or Break Up?? Is there hope for this odd couple yet? As Ramona would say, "Tu tu, foo foo." (Meaning, probably not.)
9386076
Jill Zarin vs. Bethenny Frankel Nothing gets the Real Housewives of New York more irate than charity work. At Jill's benefit, "Friends Helping Friends," friends Jill and Bethenny revealed that there was one thing that could come between the otherwise undividable duo: publicity (or who was getting more of it.) Make Up or Break Up?? Bethenny and Jill can both hold a grudge, just not with each other. They forgive and forget, at least until the next charity event.

Caroline Manzo vs. Danielle Staub Let Caroline and Danielle's relationship be a lesson to all Real Housewives. If you don't vent during those one-on-one interviews, come reunion time, you'll inevitably lose your sh-t. Which is exactly what happened when Caroline went ballistic on Danielle at the Jersey Reunion Special. "You know what you did," Caroline barked at her co-star. Make Up or Break Up?? We have no idea what Danielle did or didn't do (or WHO she did and didn't do), but when Caroline said she would NEVER forgive Danielle, we believed it.

Danielle Staub vs.Teresa Giudice No one knew the whole truth about Danielle's shady past, but co-star Teresa had some ideas. A few of her guesses: Name change. Arrested. Stripping. Prostitution whore. And so, an otherwise lovely dinner party of booze and bubbie talk ended famously with the host flipping the dinner table in Danielle's face. Make Up or Break Up?? If not for Bravo reruns, Teresa probably would have forgotten this incident occurred entirely. Will we get another unexpected outburst from the otherwise subdued Jersey girl? Let's hope so.

Sheree Whitfield vs. NeNe Leakes In the series premiere of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," NeNe Leakes showed up at Sheree's birthday bash, "eyes poppin', lips bustin'," only to discover she wasn't on the party guest list. Big mistake. A rejected NeNe went ballistic in Sheree's driveway and bam! -- the inaugural ATL feud was born. Make Up or Break Up?? The ladies have since put aside their differences, at least for now. Friendship between Housewives is a very fragile, very delicate, very temperamental, very impermanent ... well, you get the idea. It's never a sure thing.

Lisa Wu Hartwell vs. Kimberly Zolciak Who could forget the first season Reunion Special, in which Dr. Lisa diagnosed Kim as a cancer-free habitual liar who needed to get herself on some serious medication, STAT. In lieu of medication, Lisa offered to flip Kim over a couch, hopefully knocking some sense into her. Real Housewives love making a point by flipping or threatening to flip something. (See: Teresa's table flip.) Make Up or Break Up?? Kim has an uncanny ability to burn bridges, rebuild them, burn, rebuild, burn, rebuild (and repeat.) So, a friendship with Lisa? Not out of the realm of "real" possibility.

NeNe Leakes vs. Kimberly Zolciak NeNe is full of wisdom. Her advice to Kim? "Close your legs to married men." But it was on "Watch What Happens: Live" that the feud escalated. NeNe -- always inventive under pressure and under fire -- had a few choice words to describe Kim. "Monster! Hooker! Wig! Trashbox!" Um... Make Up or Break Up?? Well you wouldn't THINK so, but unlike most "Housewife" feuds, there's still hope for a reunited NeNe and Kim. It only takes one secret ingredient to make their relationship work -- bottomless margaritas.

Sheree Whitfield vs. Kimberly Zolciak Unlike the wives of OC, NJ, and NYC, the Real Housewives of Atlanta aren't afraid to throw punches and pull wigs. Sheree and Kim's street fight may not have been the best "Housewives" feud in history, but it was certainly the most physical. Make Up or Break Up?? We're just gonna call this one a break up. We're pretty sure that yanking someone's hairpiece doesn't fall into the category of forgivable.

Ramona Singer vs. Jill Zarin Ramona Singer and Jill Zarin just don't get along. Period. It's hard to say whether they've ever truly agreed on anything. Should a bus be headed in their direction, one of them will happily shove the other under it. And don't even get them started on who's a better tennis player. Make Up or Break Up?? Ramona and Jill have moments when they're civil, even friendly, towards one another. Will they ever be real friends? Unlikely. Will they sometimes fake a friendship convincingly? Sure.
