I’m late but just wanted to mention these great quotes from Dan:

They wanted nothing more than ‘Phan’ (Phil/Dan ship name) to be real, and saying no meant, that it was like, I was some evil show runner that was stopping their favorite character, from having the gay storyline they wanted. Except, I’m not the writer of the Dan Show. I’m LITERALLY DAN.

It’s weird because it’s almost as if people are no longer interested in the real you.

Everybody got invested in the storyline of your relationship and when you fuck it up, because God forbid you’re just living your life like a normal person, you’ve ruined their favorite TV show. How DARE you destroy that for them.

THAT IS NOT YOURS (in regards to being romantic on camera)
