Breakups are characterized by their noise. Accusations, arguments, explanations—clawing tries to come out on the other end justified, or desperately trying to stay attached.

Sure, there’s ghosting—a gradual puttering-out of calls, texts, plans to expend time together. But I’m talking about real relationships. Ones that span not weeks but months; where you accept trips together and get ingrained in one another’s social circles. Plans acquire been made, keys exchanged.

I’m unsure whether the stereotype about queer people getting in these relationships faster than unbent daters is factual or not, but I certainly set up myself in one such entanglement. After years of entertainment but ultimately fruitless trysts, I was with someone whom—as cliché as it sounds—everything just clicked with. By the time we strike six months, I woke up every day excited to see them, and went to bed each night thankful, and mildly in shock, that they would choose me.

Grey’s Anatomy also gave us the largest and most celebrated same-sex attracted wedding on a network television drama to date, and the most heart-wrenching lesbian divorce this side of Bette and Tina.

Growing up during the height of TV on DVD, I loved nothing more than basking in the pop identity of decades past, which soon became an abscond from a reality where the rest of the world was suddenly telling me who I was before I could choose for myself (read: gay). Looking up old opening credits soon transformed into looking up scenes of gay couples from mid-aughts television, including but not limited to Kevin and Scotty from Brothers & Sisters and Luke and Noah from As the World Turns. It didn’t matter that I knew nothing about the context of the series themselves at the time, all I cared about was watching gay men occur. I didn’t yet hold the dexterity or feeling bandwidth to declare that I was queer, but knowing footage of them at least lived was monumental for me.

I was recently brought back to my preteen-YouTubing self when I reached Season 15 of Grey’s Anatomyfor the first time, when at long last Levi Schmitt (Jake Borelli) and Nico Kim (Alex Landi) grow the series’ first prominent gay male c
