Yeah, I actually saw a lot of Chris/Jal parallels in that they're the only two couples whose individual players had to go through a lot of growing pains first and understand themselves as individuals before they could handle a complex romantic relationship. With Chral and Minky, they weren't ~destined to be nor should they have been. Unfortunately, Skins tends to feed into the trope that romantic relationships exist either as an emotional or developmental crutch/substitute or as a source of ~challenges that's supposed to solve or create all your problems and thus be a barometer for self-worth and maturity. You can't expect some sort of codependant epic love to fall into your lap whenever things get tough. A big part of growing up is learning to stand on your own, and Chral and Minky exemplify that regardless of whether or not you ship them.

looks like they don't want people latching onto the fact they made the wrong decision with the ships they will pursue.
