So just about everyone is annoyed when Adrien calls Marinette just a friend...
but why is that? Why does he only call her a friend when he obviously treats
her as more than that. So, that's what we're going to be talking about in
today's video, but before we do that don't forget to subscribe and hit the
bell to get notified when I upload. So let's theorize about this
why does Adrien see Marinette as only a friend? Let's go.
Number one.
The main reason I think that Adrien says Marinette is just a friend, is because he
doesn't want to lose her friendship; this is shown in the origin episode, he is so
excited to have her as a friend and you can see it all throughout his expression.
this is also shown in the episode Puppeteer 2, he is so hurt at the idea
that she may not even want to be close to him. Adrien hasn't had many friends
growing up, so she is one of his first friends. So, again if he were to lose her
it would hurt him a lot. If he were to say have feelings for her and she didn't
return that, would that mess up their friendship? I wonder if that's what is
going on in Adrien's head, because obviously, the way he acts around Marinette
is more than just a friend. Okay but let's talk about some signs that
support this; Plagg senses that Adrien has a crush on Marinette. Yes, you heard
me right, Plagg drops subtle hints that Adrien
likes Marinette. If we go back to the origin episode, Plagg teases Adrien
about liking her; "first day of school and we already have two lovebirds."
"Pfff whatever, she's just a friend... a friend." :)
I mean, I don't blame Plagg's reasoning, Adrien cared so deeply that Marinette
forgave him and even gave her his umbrella and stared into her eyes with a
sweet smile. I mean, Adrien I don't stare into my only
a friend's eyes like that.
Plus, master Fu said they're made for each other so, yeahhhh.
We can also think about how Adrien's confidence has gone down the
more and more he calls her only a friend. In Frozer, Adrien chases after Marinette
to see if she's okay when Luka is perfectly capable of doing that... Luka's
supposedly her date after all; and again Plagg senses there is something more
than just a friend. Plagg questions him and Adrien sounds so unsure of his answer.
"You're supposed to be in love with Ladybug, and now you ditch Kagami to
go after Marinette?"
"Me, going after Marinette? No, she's just a friend."
He hesitates and appears to be nervous. I swearrrr, are you lying Agreste?
Number two.
Okay, but back to more of the theory; Adrien has been shut
out his whole life and might not understand what the difference between a
friend and a crush is, because he clearly treats Chloe and Marinette differently--
even though he considers both of them friends. I've mentioned this scene before
but it proves my point, the difference in going in to kiss Chloe, versus
Marinette is evidence enough; Adrien is super uncomfortable and backs away from
Chloe, while with Marinette he just feels comfortable around her and
is fine with kissing her. And to all of you right now being like, "well he
obviously can recognize he likes Ladybug as more than a friend." Yes, but I mean he
has literally compared Marinette to Ladybug; Comparing the love of his life
to his *aHem* "friend," honestly I think he's just confused.
Number three.
Last theory point, maybe if Marinette would actually confess to
Adrien, then he would consider his feelings for her. Like, first of all
Adrien's really dense and so Adrien needs some extra help and every time
that Marinette has an opportunity to tell him that she likes him... she doesn't!
now if Adrien thinks Marinette sees him as a friend, then he might be denying
something more for her--if he doesn't think that Marinette sees him as more
than that. And I can already hear the comments "but in Puppeteer 2, Adrien
backed away from Marinette's kiss." Pff, well he also backed away from his kiss with
Kagami, which further shows Adrien is confused because he likes Kagami, but not
Marinette, but honestly he treats like Marinette and Kagami like the same way.
Like, he stares at Marinette the same way as he stares at Kagami, I don't, I don't
know.. like this boy needs help.
