By the end of this season we will know who she picks, but let\u2019s dive into why you should be Team Conrad.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every summer since Belly was little she would go to Cousins beach with the Fishers and her family. Even though Conrad is older than Belly that has never stopped him from always being there for her. Whether it was helping her ride a bike, making sure she wasn&#8217;t left out or dancing with her when she wanted, he always made the best memories with her. Jeremiah and Belly may have been &#8220;best friends\u201d since they were little, but it has been known Belly has continually had a crush on Conrad her whole life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the time when Conrad and Belly were dating, Conrad was struggling with his mental health, and his mom\u2019s battle with cancer. While this was happening, Conrad was forgetful of Belly, not because he didn\u2019t love her but because he was so stressed and worried about other situations in his life that many people didn&#8217;t know of. Conrad never explained his feelings to her about his mental health. Through the season Conard is seen working through this flaw, even attending therapy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the third season was finally released and people were watching, they began to wonder how real Jeremiah and Belly\u2019s relationship was and questioned how long they would last. Jeremiah still needs to get this future together, while Conrad lives in California interning&nbsp; for one of the top doctors in the nation. Conrad moved to California because he needed space and to get away from all the worries and stress of his mother\u2019s passing. People have switched to team Jeremiah because he is more loving towards Belly and is forever there for her. This however is not true, the whole summer Jeremiah was an intern for his dad to his father&#8217;s own company. This left Belly to do all the planning for their big wedding, and Jeremiah wasn\u2019t there to help all because he wanted to make his dad proud. Conrad may not be all talkative or loving, but he shows his love in different ways. Conrad fixed up the whole house just for Belly, and Conrad went to buy supplies for the big day even though he had things he had to go do. Conrad also convinced Belly\u2019s mom, Laurel, she should come support her daughter on her big day. Sophomore Elizabeth Romig said, \u201cConrad is more mature and way less manipulative than Jeremiah.\u201d Conrad may not have been absolutely honest with Belly on how he felt, but he never manipulated her like Jeremiah does. Jeremiah will sign up for a job that leaves Belly, and while Belly tries to reason with him, Jeremiah remains insistent and won&#8217;t cooperate with Belly. Conrad isn\u2019t selfish or uninterested; he just has a different way of showing his love, a more quiet way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the third and final season of \u201cThe Summer I Turned Pretty\u201d airing, the fight between brothers as competing love interests continues. Fans online continue to speculate who is the better partner for Belly, Conrad or Jeremiah Fisher? Here is why you should switch to Team Jeremiah.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Growing up together in ironically named \u201cCousins Beach,\u201d Belly and Jeremiah have been best friends since childhood. They share a love of the beach, choosing to spend every summer together swimming, playing, and relaxing. Jeremiah shows interest in Belly as soon as the first book. Despite this interest, he notices a connection between Belly and his older brother Conrad and ultimately steps away allowing his brother and best friend to date. All is not well, however, because Conrad is constantly indecisive and ends up breaking up with Belly, leaving her heartbroken. After a respectable amount of time has passed, Jeremiah reintroduces himself into Belly\u2019s life, first as friends then as a couple.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a boyfriend, Jeremiah is constantly attentive, he makes Belly a priority in his busy schedule by taking care of her and seeing her everyday. He is also emotionally supportive, always listening to Belly and supportive when she is upset. Jeremiah constantly provides positive energy and has an infectious mood. Most importantly, Jeremiah loves Belly no matter what and is a consistent boyfriend to her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the plot of the third season, more fans have switched to Conrad\u2019s side, questioning Jeremiah\u2019s loyalty. These fans come to the conclusion that Conrad is the perfect boyfriend, constantly supportive of his family and Belly, this is however not true. Conrad is not transparent about his feelings towards Belly constantly sending her mixed signals, he is attentive one minute then abandons Belly in times of need. Instead of being there for his younger brother in the wake of their mothers passing, Conrad flees to California constantly avoiding contact with his family. The most crucial reason Conrad is not the right for Belly, is his selfishness. Conrad ignores and betrays his younger brother when he confesses his love for Belly on the eve of her wedding and tries to convince Belly not to marry his brother. This behavior proves Conrad&#8217;s self absorption and lack of care for others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately Jeremiah is the best choice for Belly as he is considerate, emotionally supportive, and consistent. &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The third and final season of \u201cThe Summer I Turned Pretty\u201d is all over media, which means people across the nation continue to be in a debate on whether or not you\u2019re team Conrad or Jeremiah Fisher?
