Thus far the extent of her inner demons has been a twinge of perfectionism, one night drinking too much, and that her shitty popular friends ditched her after that night. She's smart, popular, fit, extremely hard-working, etc. Much like how the "lonely/ antisocial" T had no problems actually interacting with others (aside from low self-esteem), Maddie's life is one of the idyllic teenage girl. Not just once or even a handful of times in the past, but that she is the ongoing victim of weekly perhaps even nightly incestual rape.
We will also excuse the rude behavior because he was bullied for being different and beat up once by his insecure crush's two jock friends surely one of the most terrible tales of gay men suffering ever >_> Fast forward a little more after a failed attempt at forcing T out of the closet, Maddie reveals that she was raped. So we blind ourselves and pretend that even though he doesn't live in the Bible belt, most of his community probably doesn't care, and the entire media culture around homosexuality has been revolutionized, that somehow he's going through highschool 40 years ago. Not only that but in nowheresville, USA circa 2017 this is quite the tragedy. So as everyone can now easily guess, turns out that despite being seemingly smitten with and flirting effortlessly with this girl for the first third of the movie- surprise, surprise, T is gay. Fast forwarding through the boring parts, we hit the first two major stumbling blocks: 1) He insists she change her clothes off cam, and 2) He calls her "weird and desperate" when she starts to stripteasing him. He calls one such former friend on a lark, revealing an extremely beautiful young woman with a seemingly perfect life. Despite having zero friends or any real social interaction after middle school, he has no problems whatsoever communicating with others. We start with a generic shot of the boy, T.

So I went into this expecting a cheesy romantic comedy, and it started out that way, before going full Lifetime- tv movie.
