i'm thinking about isak and his struggle to be comfortable with himself and i'm emo rn. like he definitely knew he was gay in season 1 but was in deep denial. there's no way he didn't know how he felt about jonas because of what he did to eva/their relationship--

and it's like particularly upsetting to see him dating sara because i just know he was forcing himself to date her. he was trying so hard to be like his friends but he *knew* deep down that it wasn't right. that he doesn't like women--

by the time we see him in season 3, i think he was starting to feel so worn down by pretending? which i totally relate to bc i struggled for a long time pretending to be someone i wasn't--

isak didn't just accept himself overnight because even showed up. he had been struggling for awhile?? but he was just so tired and couldn't ignore the intense feelings he had for even--

idk what the point of this thread is other than being annoyed when people don't seem to see the character development isak went through before his season. he knew he was gay for a while. it just took even coming into his life for him to stop denying it.
