Jonathon Crombie as Gilbert Blythe = definition of heartthrob.

So today I found out that Jonathon Crombie, who played Gilbert Blythe in the Anne of Green Gables movie, passed away last week and I know I didn't know him and it's quite silly of me, but I feel really deeply saddened by this. At fourteen years of age, Gilbert Blythe was the very first fictional love of my life. He taught me how a woman should be treated and loved by a man, how a relationship should be; a deeper form of friendship filled with laughter, fun, comfort, support and the ability to get through all the bad times in life because the love is so strong that nothing will change, lessen or break it, so I would never be able to settle for anything less than this gorgeous love story that played out between the pages of my favourite books. I grew up with these characters both in the books and movies, so I always felt (and admittedly still do feel) like they were good friends to me that would be there for me to return to whenever I needed some comfort in life. Jonathon Crombie was the absolute epitome of how Gilbert should be portrayed; funny, kind, selfless, eloquent, devilishly handsome with a wicked sense of humour and a roguish twinkle in his eye. He was everything I imagined the character in the book to be and more, and even on really crappy days, his portrayal never failed to make me smile. He brought Gilbert Blythe to life and seemed to be such a genuinely lovely, kind and generous person outside of all the characters he played.

RIP Jonathon Crombie, thank you for all the smiles you brought to my life.
