No but did anyone ever notice that Jeremiah wasn't even the slightest bit jealous of cam Cameron but as soon as Conrad steps in he's all  sad and quote on quote heartbroken

This video needs to blow up so others can come to the right side!! Team Conrad since the start!

The more I think about it, the more it’s clear to me that both Jeremiah and Conrad have chemistry with Belly—but it’s not the same kind of chemistry. Jeremiah’s the kind of guy you instantly click with. He’s fun, easy to be around, always makes you laugh. Every time he and Belly are together, it feels like sunshine. But to be honest, that feels more like friendship than romance.

Romantic chemistry is something different. It’s heavier, deeper. It’s not just about how well you get along—it’s about that pull you can’t explain, that tension, that feeling that something real is going on beneath the surface. That’s what Conrad has with Belly. You can feel it in the silence, in the looks, in the way they just get each other even when things are messy.

People say Conrad’s too closed off or too moody—but I think they’re missing the point. He’s not cold; he’s just carrying a lot. After losing his mom, he shut down not because he didn’t care—but because he cared too much. He didn’t want Belly or Jeremiah to carry that weight, so he took it all on himself. That’s not a flaw—that’s love. A quieter, more selfless kind.

Jeremiah is fun, but Conrad is the one who would suffer in silence if it meant protecting the people he loves. That kind of love isn’t always easy—but it’s real. It’s lasting.

So yeah, Jeremiah might make a great friend. But when it comes to who really loves Belly in a way that could go the distance?

It’s Conrad. No question.

Team Conrad all the way.  There is a scene you didn’t mention that I think for me embodies the difference between both guys and their dynamic with belly. After the volleyball game, Jere makes a comment to Conrad saying that he knows how much Conrad likes to win. And Conrad responds that it’s not about winning for him it’s about doing things the right way.?

Jeremiah is focused on competition. He wants to beat Conrad & win the girl. Conrad just wants to not screw things up for everyone and find a way to make the most ppl happy. He will sacrifice being with her if he thinks it’s the right thing for everyone involved even if it means he’s unhappy.

Also for another reason that Conrad's the better brother he literally has a panic attack over getting into Stanford because he doesn't want to leave his brother.

i love how team conrad girlies have like receipts timelines and screenshots abt why he is better and team jere girls are like “WELL GAVIN IS HOT AND GIVES GOLDEN RETRIEVER”

Oh my gosh. This video has changed my whole perspective ahh. I am a new team conrad fan and I was 80 % his team, but after watching this, I am 1000 % on his side! This is such an underrated vid thanksss!!!

Baby angel Conrad FINALLY being stood up for, I LOVE this video! You did such a great job!! Conrad girlies for LIFE

Love thisss!!! People saying him acting bad in season one while he was holding the weight of his mum having cancer is crazy. Team Conrad foreverrrr!!!

Can we also talk about how Jeremiah treated Cam Cameron. First the way he judged his name, and then the way him and Steven. treated him at the dinner table? And it wasn't even because he was jealous, he just wanted to mock him. Steven is still understandable because he is Belly's older brother but I've hated Jeremiah ever since then

Everything you said in this video is spot on! And that's a compliment to your emotional maturity.

i’ll always be on team Conrad ♾️

it's funny because i haven't read the books and conrad always seemed like the much better option to me. HE was the one she wanted from the beginning and the only things that prevented them from being together initially were 1) jeremiah sabotaging their kiss with the firework (????????? DUDE) and 2) susannah dying and conrad shouldering that burden for much longer than everyone else.

also, sidenote: i find it incredibly irritating that so many people blame belly for "toying with two brothers" when they both pursued HER and jeremiah was the one to essentially create the love triangle by interfering in the first place. jeremiah also knew how they felt about each other. he should have left them alone PERIOD.

forever and always team conrad

STOP IM SO PASSIONATE ABOUT TSITP AND BEING TEAM CONRAD TOO!! LOVED this video 💗💗💗

Also, Conrad used to wear glasses too. I feel like that further validates your assessment of his meaning there. It wasn't to put her down, but rather to let her know that he loved all of those times with her and already thought she was pretty.

Jeremiah looked at Conrad with pure resentment. I genuinely think he might highly dislike his own brother because he feels inferior to him..hes alwsys comparing himself to him every five seconds and its exhausting..im sorry if i were belly id think that was a red flag

You are absolutely right! Explaining it point by point makes it clear:
it's incredibly difficult to find someone who is passionate enough to love deeply, to stay silent without defending themselves, to simply take action with selfless, genuine love. Sometimes it's very hard to keep quiet when life is unfair and people don't see the good you do for others. I had seen Conrad's perspective as someone who didn't defend himself, who didn't act at a precise moment, and I saw that he lost opportunities to defend himself and act (which Belly often expected). Jeremiah acts without thinking; he loves her a lot too, but Conrad loves her with a deep, passionate, sincere love, without malice.
In other words, Conrad represents a love that is true, patient, kind, not envious, not boastful, not proud, not selfish, not easily angered, not resentful. It endures all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and bears all things. This is how it should be, but in silence, holding everything deep inside him. I literally identify with him ❤️
Excellent video

You're amazing!!! People need to watch this!! I don't know how people don't see how cunning Jeremiah can be when it comes to Conrad having something he wants!! He's so jealous of Conrad. He literally conspires to separate them whenever he sees they're getting close to eachother!! He loves belly like a friend. He just wants to have belly so Conrad can't. The Stanford thing you mentioned was so on point. People seem to miss that!!! Take love 💕 always team Conrad!!!!

This has been one of the best deep dives or analysis on conrad ive seen so far! great content and really helps you understand him more.
