i havent talked about this yet,
but usually i hate when media has a gay character in a love triangle because
1) it adds a lot of unnecessary drama and i just wanna see gay characters happy
2) being gay/having a love interest tends to be that character's only personality trait, and i absolutely hate that
3) there usually doesn't seem to be any reason that these three people would be interested in each other, except for the fact they're all gay
but for some reason, i really like what doafp has done with bobby. i think its bc they made it so realistic and natural. like, of course bobby would try to get over liam so they could stay friends, and he's definitely gonna jump at the chance to flirt with this cute upperclassman cj, and holy shit they kissed, but he still kinda has feelings for liam bc he hasn't had the chance to completely process those feelings and move on, but liam isn't even a possibility.... right??
like i literally feel like i experienced this (minus the kissing) in high school.
and it wasnt rushed- a lot of teen shows would probably try to cram this scenario into 1-3eps max, but doafp did it throughout 10.
i kinda really like this show a lot.
