dan & phil: super best friends and soulmates forever

all this time it’s been much more than just “taking a break.” i think dan felt that he could no longer move forward with his content until he addressed that. the clarity of his sexuality has never been important when it came to his previous videos, but he likely felt like it had come to a point where he needed to elaborate on that first before creating content he felt was right, content where he could move forward and discuss topics relating to such a prominent aspect of his story and identity.

dan not feeling ready to come out until now? 100% valid and reasonable. that’s why he kept saying he’d upload “when he’s ready” and “perhaps soon, not sure when” and that he was “taking his time.”

Dan wanted to come out in a 45 minute video with a bang. During pride month. He wanted to make a statement, tell his truth, so he did. Brilliantly. And he’s #1 on trending, both on youtube and twitter, people are talking about him and sending him support, it’s public and inspiring and beautiful in a lot of ways.

Phil wanted to come out in a way that no one would talk about it. So he did. He is out, he is supporting his boyfriend, but he’s not trending, he’s not being featured in articles, he’s not plastered across the entire internet. And it’s also beautiful.
