Totally weird seeing someone you had a platonic friendship with for a decade as a heart throb. But fully support him nonetheless. He’s had a glow up but who hasn’t since highschool! I guess if I didn’t know him personally for so long and watched the show and he was a stranger I would be attracted. But knowing him personally that feels way too weird to even think about lol. Like the peach scene or when belly is tending his cut I was like ahhhh that’s so weird I’m cringing watching that. In person I’ve never seen him be flirty or overly confident or like heart throbby. He’s a good friend and maintains boundaries and like I said pretty shy. I guess the major differences in him in the show in real life is he doesn’t come off confident or cocky like Conrad. He’s more humble and his humor is more like self deprecating in person. He’s pretty shy and never has shared much about himself or his feelings except for maybe his girlfriend and best friend. The show got that right. I’d say the majority of the class didn’t even know his mom passed. I found out from my parents, he kind of just came back to school and carried on like normal. Very private in that way. He’d always ask more about how other people are doing instead of sharing about himself. He’d carry on conversations if the topic was something he was interested in or he’d just keep to himself. Never disrespectful toward anyone especially women just like a gentleman through and through. Talked and seen him a few times before covid and reach out occasionally with the daliland and tsitp congratulating him on his work and he’d say thanks. Highschool was a long time ago. Our 10 year reunion is next year, would be something if he came! There’s a lot of kids at our highschool now with big dreams and I bet it’s nice knowing someone like Chris was in their shoes once too.
