aroace Cameron
I’m back on my cam defender stuff so….
Cameron is 100% aroace. There is very obvious evidence for this in my mind. All the other boys seem to have a love interest. So he’s surrounded by romance. And still, he is never shown having any chemistry with anyone. He is a pretty closed off person which often means someone is hiding something. Aroace guilt is very real, meaning Cam has probably never told anyone he has never been in a relationship or had a crush. Another thing about being aroace is a feeling of needing to be someone else. You feel like you don’t fit in with others cause you’ve never liked anyone so you overcompensate. We see cam doing this all throughout the movie. With his friends, his teachers, academically. If he can’t be good for romance, maybe he can be good for his friends. If he can’t be good for either, all he has is school. So when he tells Nolan, all that guilt and shame has built up to that moment.
also, completely off topic, most of the people in this movie are teenagers. They all act dumb at some point. They all make mistakes. I’m tired of everyone just trashing on Cam. All the other poets have made mistakes too. And guess what, his mistake made sense for his character. If you keep pressuring yourself, you’re going to crack.
