its not very often that a gay love story where at least one character isnt out is written well. it usually makes it feel like being closeted is some kind of dirty secret, that it’s something you’re doing a disservice to the people who love you by not sharing. like you’re the bad guy for sitting on it. heartstopper is nothing like this.
nicks feelings are real and raw. he’s confused and sure, he’s scared and excited, he is truly a depiction if what its like to be closetted and in love. Alice Oseman truly has a gift.
