"You and I" or "You and me"?

Question: "You and I" or "You and me"?
Answer: Both are correct.

The two personal pronouns, "I" and "me" are often used wrongly!

"I" is used along with other subjective pronouns (we, he, she, you and they) when pronoun is subject of the verb.
Examples:
  • You and I are going to gym. ("I" is subject of the verb)

"Me" is used along with other objective pronouns (us, him, her, you and them) when pronoun is object of the verb / preposition.
Examples:
  • He blamed you and me. ("me" is object of the verb)
  • He is going to gym with you and me. ("me" is object of the preposition)
