Re: Connor Franta Part 2
Posting more pictures on instagram he is. This time it's coffee with Alexa. I was just starting to ship Tronnor hard core and now I am steeling myself for the idea that he might either date someone else or pretend he is.
Re: Connor Franta Part 2
The past few days haven't been good for the Tronnor ship haha. I can't tell if he's just trying to divert us though. I do think Troye has been busy with music stuff the past few days. Seems like last night he was just relaxing in his hotel room.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
I still ship Conye and think there's a possibility they're together, because imo the things that suggest they are together still outweigh whatever would make me think they aren't. They're allowed to have separate lives, especially if Troye's busy with his music career. They've been caught hanging out without ever tweeting it or IGing photos, so they probably spend more time together than we'd ever suspect.
I don't think Alexa is anything more than a good gal pal.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
Well, he is quite open about hanging out with just Alexa, where as he only mentions being with Troye while others are there. If he was really "low key dating" Alexa I doubt it would be all over his instagram.manged wrote:I still ship Conye and think there's a possibility they're together, because imo the things that suggest they are together still outweigh whatever would make me think they aren't.

If he starts openly dating a girl I may stop shipping Tronnor: the idea of his being that far in the closet is disturbing.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
I would be shocked if he went the bearding route, especially after we've all noticed how much more comfortable he has become with himself. Even if he ever does come out, I question whether they'd ever come clean about Conye. I could imagine them still wanting their privacy, especially if Troye were to ever blow up with his music and be in the public eye.
Re: Connor Franta Part 2
Yeah I don't think he would be the type to have a relationship with a girl and make it public if he were actually gay. I agree the likelihood of them ever actually confirming a relationship if it were real would be slim to none. I think they'd have to be outed a la Zalfie and I think most the their youtube friends have probably learned from Jim's slip up, but who knows. The fact that the only time they ever confirm hanging out is if they're with other youtubers seems enough for me to speculate that something could be going.
Also Connor is this video just makes me think he definitely has a crush on Troye, which may have evolved to more at this point.

I can never deal with that video. Connor looks so thirsty!Kbeliz wrote:Yeah I don't think he would be the type to have a relationship with a girl and make it public if he were actually gay.

As much as I respect their privacy, it's times like this where I really wish some messy lesser known YTer would spill just a splash of tea on twitter or during a livestream to keep us going. I'm sure it's an open secret within the YT inner circles, like it is for a lot of big name closeted YTers. But Connor and Troye are probably too well-liked, and they know that Troye, Connor, and Tyler's fan girls would come for them so mightily, because they are loyal as fuck.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
i *adore* that video. it was what made me take note of tronnor to begin with, tbh. i actually really like the way troye says connor's name in his accent, it's adorable
it just seems to me that troye and connor have gone out of their way to show us that they're not hanging together or they're out with other people etc etc. it does feel like a diversion tactic to me, and i can see why they would do that, much as i wish they wouldn't.

I guess this answers the suspicions anyone would've had about her and Connor. Unless he has a secret girlfriend, this could almost count as an outing.

or Alexa "couldn't potentially like" Connor which sounds mean. Oops Alexa I think you dropped something.manged wrote:[tweet][/tweet]

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
I definitely think she "could potentially like" Connor so unless he's got a secret girlfriend.....
Re: Connor Franta Part 2
That tweet is interesting hehe. Definitely would raise some suspicions and I'm sure she realized that.
But anyway, I feel like everyone in Connor's thread talks only about Tronnor...

Is there anything else to gossip about? He's so private about everything else.suzika wrote:But anyway, I feel like everyone in Connor's thread talks only about Tronnor...

But from Alexa's tweet, if I think more about it, means either Connor has a girlfriend or he's gay. For -almost- sure, not a fact but it's a possiblity wit increased chances. Hmm.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
He did say he'd announce a new project soon, but that's hardly enough to keep a real discussion going.
Anyway, I would just find it difficult to believe that this guy who really only ever hangs out with gay guys, refrains from stating gender when discussing his current crushes, and has this pattern of tweeting or reblogging quotes about long-distance relationships when one of his male buddies is far away, while being inseparable from that dude whenever they reunite, has a secret girlfriend that no one has ever stumbled upon before.

Re: Connor Franta Part 2
The only plausible explanation for him having a girlfriend would be that it's relatively new and with Connor's track record I'd assume he'd be tweeting and reblogging happy love quotes and such if that were the case.
His use of gender neutral pronouns also seems like a clue to me. I can understand not specifically using he or she as to appeal to a broader audience but usually people slip up and will use whichever gender they prefer, but in the last year he has not done that.
I think this thread has basically turned to being about Tronnor because there's nothing else to gossip about with him. He knows he's got an audience of teenage girls so he keeps it clean and caters to that.
