Not necessarily. Just make it more obvious in some way, or let the character build up before getting him into a relationship.

I like that its so instant. As Josh will no doubt be blind of any of Nate's flaws.

It happens so often in teenage life. You meet a guy/girl, sleep with each other then the next morning, you're at home thinking "wow, that was great - I really really like [insert name here]". But really, you know nothing about the person, its just lust that's making you feel that way. (I've done this twice)

I think it'd be good for Josh to go this way and later wish he didn't...

DRAMA

he has had like one or two lines how can you be sure what is character is like at all? josh has been on the show for a few series so we've gotten to known his character but you're basing this new guy on from what we've seen in a very small time. and how do you know they will be going into a relationship? just looks like a bit of sex to me.

besides, what's fun about sticking to the norm anyway?

I thought it was obvious he was gonna be Josh's love interest tbh. I don't agree with you bout the gay thing but I do agree with you that they do seem to rush people into unrealistic relationships for drama rather than taking things slowly. It's like they sit down at the end of every series or part-series and say 'right who shall we pair up this time?' :D

You have a point there although I don't see it going that way. I just see them rushing into it, then going further and further lol.

I'm judging from what I've seen and read. In his character profile it says he will go into a relationship with Josh after persuading him to make a band together.

WEll from the "next time" bit at the end, it looked like they're going to be going in fairly quickly..

Let's be honest guys:

TEENAGERS RUSHING INTO RELATIONSHIPS IS HARDLY UNREALISTIC. INFACT, IT IS THE NORM

I agree.

It would be boring if they dragged it out anyway. :/

I love in depth we're all looking at this. The guy has had two lines and the storyline between Josh and Nate has yet to begin :D
