Thought I was alone in this! I have shipped a lot of rpf over the years and except for Phan I never once have thought it was real. But Willmack? It’s way too clear. If one of them was a girl no one would doubt that they are together.
I mean, come on, the constant one on one dinners? The dinner book? The way white noise came back on Will’s playlist the minute Mack got back to San Jose and they both skipped optional? The way Will’s trip to Van was very clearly not about training, evident Sam and Misa hightailing it out of there ans all the activities? The way whenever someone asks a Sharks player if they have a friendship on the team like Willmack the player sort of makes this awkward face and entirely denies that’s even possible? The way their social lives seem to revolve around spending time with their married teammates? The way Laila Edwards talked about living in their basement as if no question Willmack is going to live together in a full on house? The way everyone around them views them completly as a unit in only the manner a couple ever is? The way the Sharks are so clearly protective of the two of them and openly push to have one of the most accepting team cultures in the NHL? The way there has not been a single real hint of a girl going near either of them on a romantic manner since that influencer (who then posted that snarky video about a hook up leaving her for their buddy and probably being gay)? The way the only public drunk stories we have of them are Marmon (where Mack notably was not seen with a girl), Mack and Dickie at worlds, them getting blasted off Espresso Martinis in I think Halifax, and them going just the two of them to a bar in San fucking Fran, puking with a random man in a stall? Like HUH. That is absolutly not straight 20-21 year old behavior, I would know, I’m in freaking college and surrounded by these sorts of guys.
In truth a lot of what we all yap about on here is just friendship stuff, like matching clothes and smiling at each other and talking about the other a lot. All that stuff can be explained away, but the rest? Yeah, they’re just dating and I don’t know why it’s so weird to say that. Hell, people were posting like crazy about Tate and Jack Hughes when nothing was confirmed at all, it was just speculation based on behavior, which is all rpf shipping really is.
Anyway I’m a yapper, all I’m saying is that if Will and Mack really were hooking up with women all the time and dming and swiping right we would know. Looks at Gavin McKenna and Connor Bedard, they are both young talents and their stuff with girls was exposed immediately. All of the above behavior with each other paired with the lack of any stories about girls with them entirely convinces me they are a thing, and sorry but that is not parasocial or weird at all, it’s just having two eyes and a working brain.
I agree with this 100%!!! There truly is something there with them that we dont see often at all, which makes people feel the way they do about it all. Its also the fact that these stories we go off of are completely true, which i feel like is what also makes people spiral more because its not fake. Overall, again, we definitely would know, and the fact that they are always attached at the hip one way or another says a lot about it all.
(I also agree that if one was a girl they would definitely be together, if not together then everyone would definitely think theyre dating)
