I somehow think that they will split up; to love him properly, Nyles has to accept him as he is. He can't. But I suspect separation would change them both, they might encounter each other 5 years and a lot of stress later. By which time I believe they might be at war, until they both recognized the changes in each other. Nyles might have been arrested as a suspected terrorist, really because of his political writing, and Julian? Would end up being the prosecuting attorney. Or maybe Julian would be running for office as a Democrat, and Nyles would be covering the election. How would Julian change? Hmm. This Julian will probably either genuinely change the Republican Party (unlikely) or give up on them and focus on legal movements toward gay rights. I don't know that he'd become a Democrat, but when global warming becomes just a little more undeniable even Julian might join the Green Party.
The Julian in the show will either a)committ suicide when his inner and outer lives make him too uncomfortable to bear, possibly after marrying a woman he doesn't love to bear his children b)lose any sense of idealism he ever had and essentially become one of the sort of guys who are running America right now c)fall in love and change a lot, but not enough and get dumped, leading to a or b or d)come out of the closet, get gay-bashed, and go through a period of self-discovery followed by a determined and sinister overthrow of the Democratic Party.
