As I've been reading things about Jonathan Crombie and Gilbert Blythe, I've reflected a little bit on why I love Gil so much. He is the boy next door. That cocky, awkward boy who doesn't know how to show he cares, who turns into the humble, sincere man who sticks with Anne through all of her drama. He encourages her and supports her and just loves her and it's adorable. I guess that's why we love him, because that's what we are looking for. We want someone who will love us in spite of our quirks and drama. Who supports us and sticks with us and always believes in us even when we don't believe in ourselves. Thank you Jonathan Crombie for doing such an excellent job of bringing Gilbert Blythe to life; for portraying a realistic, endearing, ideal man, without too much highfalutin mumbo jumbo.
