The thing about Rigleen is that it was never an in-your-face kind of relationship to begin with. While Mordecai's love interests have been a prominent part of the series since the third season, Eileen never really had her own chance to shine and be an important part of Rigby's life until a season or two ago because the primary focus was either on Mordecai's romantic interest in Margaret or his budding romance with CJ. Now that Mordecai seems to have stopped pulling Mordecais, (At least for the most part) the creators actually have a chance to focus on Rigby and Eileen's relationship a little bit more.

To be honest, I appreciate how the writers have decided to slowly build up their feelings for one another and have Rigby transform from a slacker into a man (raccoon) of integrity. At the beginning of the series, he didn't even want to talk to Eileen. Now he can't seem to stop hanging out with her! I also find it interesting to watch Mordecai chase after a relationship that he can never seem to have while Rigby just prefers to sit on the sidelines and see where things end up. It's a nice little contrast, albeit an aggravating one. At this point, I really just want to seem them get together. (My impatience knows no bounds XD) As for the most mature relationship on the show, I would either have to go with Filia (Hi Five Ghost and Celia) or Rigleen. Neither one seems to involve too much drama, and it makes for a nice break from the norm every once in a while. Here's to hoping that Rigby doesn't start pulling Mordecais anytime soon! XD
