random ass people are actually offended on behalf of dan and phil because they’re not married after dating for 16 years… have you considered not everyone believes in marriage ESPECIALLY two gay men who spent 16 years hiding their relationship????
so you’re telling me it basically boiled down to dan being too in love with phil to let his fears take away the love of his life and phil being so in love with dan that he was willing to wait however long it would take for those fears to go away……
dnps jokes about having no friends always had me like 🙄girl but hearing abt how they could never get close to ppl they were friendly with because of the big fucking elephant in the room is actually rlly sad and I hope that's a huge weight off their chests now
BREAKING 🚨
Dan and Phil are together, but they want to be left alone. Their relationship is theirs alone to cherish. They just want to make us laugh. That's the whole point.
“Sometimes when I looked at Phil I felt the gaze of these [invasive] people in my head” that was the most heartbreaking to hear and I can’t imagine how hard it was to have those thoughts associated with your partner. I am so glad they are in a better place now
this was such a good video on boundaries and parasocial behavior. whether you watched dan and phil before, are actively watching them now or have never watched them before. this was a really good video on internet and shipping culture as a whole! I recommend you to watch it!
Important reminder: that video will ALWAYS be off limits. Just because it was addressed, doesn’t make it okay. In fact, it makes it that much more private.
