Please, this crap happened with Adventure Time when Princess Bubblegum became 18 again and denied having any feelings for Finn after that, and Flame Princess dumped Finn, not to mention Regular Show when Margaret left for college, leaving Mordecai to get with CJ. Things between Mordecai and CJ are VERY stable at the moment, but if Margaret returns, he might end up with neither.

Ben 10: Omniverses' callous sinking of Ben x Julie also riled up the fan community, mainly because the staff was trying to get rid of the things Dwayne McDuffy established in Alien Force. So now they're pairing Ben with an alien chick.

And of course, there's the Avatar/Korra community, which is a nuclear war in waiting.

Bottom line: Ben isn't going to break Gumball and Penny up at the risk of losing viewers, boycotts, Darwin-bashing, and hate/revenge-fics, all of which would kill the show.
