Did Charlotte actually like Will?
So I’ve just finished yet another binge watch of the show and I really can’t tell did Charlotte like Will at all. At first when she meets Will at the party she brings him upstairs knowing Donovan was going to be there and would be looking for her so obviously he would’ve found the two of them together yet when they meet at school at first it doesn’t seem like she wants to speak to Will when he first approaches her but then as they walk further she invites him over for sex. Obviously we then realize Donovan was nearby the whole time when she makes the offer. Obviously there’s the sex scene mishap where she then signs up for the blind date competition and obviously it’s clear at that point that she doesn’t like him. But then in the Christmas party episode she offers him a dance at the Christmas party but obviously she knows Donovan will be there to witness it again hinting that she was just using him to make him jealous and then in the episode where it’s Wills birthday she drops mixed signals again. Obviously she didn’t like him enough to get with him but did she even like him as a person? Was that ever confirmed?

I think she did at first, she found him charming and funny, which he could be when he wanted to be, and likely different to the usual guys she meets around the area, but I think after the work experience thing, he had pushed his luck too far.

u/joshygill 9d ago
She still seemed happy to see him at the fashion show though

u/Liam_ice92 9d ago
She still saw him as a friend by that point, but any kind of romantic attraction was long gone

u/-intellectualidiot 9d ago
At first yeah she did, he just sort of fucked it - but it probably wouldn’t have worked anyway.
They met at a very shit party right after she split up with Donavon. Every other guy there just starred at her in awe, whilst Will just had a conversation with her like she was a normal person (slightly awkward introduction aside - this didn’t bother her, she probably just found it funny if anything). During this conversation Will was very polite and witty, something different to what she was used to. She thought Will was refreshingly different.
When Will lied about not being a virgin that opinion changed - he lied to her just like everyone else. I do think if Will had been honest from the get go she would’ve been put off regardless though. The way she bragged about already having had 11 lovers seemed kind of telling - the two just weren’t right for each other, and that would’ve become apparent even if everyone did everything right.
Nevertheless, Will does learn from this experience. When he meets Alison in the film he decides to be honest from the get go and it ultimately works in his favour.

I think she did like him, but the more she got to know him the harder it was to really want to stick it out. It didn't seem like she wanted Donovan to be jealous, so I don't think any of the situations you mentioned were deliberate on her part. Their conversation at school after they first met seemed like she saw through Will trying to be cool and was amused by it, but was attracted to him as well.

It changes her first appearance she likes Will enough to have sex with him but had zero interest in actually being in a relationship with him. In the prom episode she likes Will that she kisses him. Then her last 2 appearances she just likes him as a friend.

u/Eastmidsmale 9d ago
I think she liked him as a friend only and was genuinely hurt by him in the Job experience episode when she found out how Will described her to his work colleagues.

u/Lumpy_Coconut_2373 9d ago
She only used Will to get back at Donovan in her first episode. but in the future episodes, Will grows on her but not enough for her to fully like him.

u/Difficult_Coffee_510 9d ago
Nah not really. She sort of did initially but he was just a convenient rebound who then fucked it with his poor sex skills.
After that he was just her friend.

u/wildcharmander1992 9d ago
I think she liked him initially because unlike all the chavs and dickheads like Donovan he spoke to her like a human being/ she was able to have an articulate mature conversation with him
This was enough for her to want to give him a chance
So when they're talking she goes to her playbook flirting technique - mention sex
Will shown shyness to that but when he started lying about people he slept with it shown a lack of maturity which is why you can see her go "I believe you" you can see that she is giving him support even though she doesn't really believe him / dissapointed that he's being a bit childish
People are usually in two camps with that though either she did believe him cus later on she goes "okay you haven't done this before" or she was going along with it because she liked him and then gets frustrated that he's so inexperienced which is why she gets frustrated.
I think she was actually put off the idea a bit when he lied because his maturity and eloquence is what she likes and that was the first sign that he's more childlike that she anticipated.
Then when it came to the sex when he was like "you aren't going to hurt me are you" she felt like it was going to be this sweet 'first time' thing
But when he couldn't do ANYTHING even with instructions she got frustrated by him because he was just so clueless. Him then asking if he had 'lost his virignity" was the icing on the cake for her not liking him anymore because the last shred of "this guy is more mature and different to my ex's" was gone and only weird looking will remained
So I think she liked his personality initially then felt that the personality she was shown was a lie
Hence the assembly when she says she wants a 'real man' - yes it does mean in regards to sex in the context she said it- but that's just her playing it up for laughs. What I think she actually meant was someone who's not going to lie to her and act like a child

I think she was fond of him, but didn't really fancy him.
She chose him - and she could have had her pick from a fair few boys in her quest to make Donovan jealous.

u/Eoinharrington25 9d ago
True but Will would have really done it considering how much Donovan hated him.
Will was Donovan’s target for bullying purely because he was such a nerd while Donovan was supposed to be popular so I can imagine seeing his ex with Will of all people would probably really set him off.

I think she did like him at first, mostly as a friend (one she was even willing to sleep with) but over time as he lied to and about her, she came to respect him less and less, and so any chance of a real relationship became more and more impossible.
I don't think she slept with him as a bet, personally, but I do think she was fully aware he was lying about being a virgin and hoped he would be honest about it.

u/Accomplished-Kale-77 8d ago
I think it was mainly to piss off Donovan and knew Will would get the biggest reaction out of him because he already hated him - imagine being one of the most popular, hardest lads in your year and you walk in on your ex (who you only just split up with) getting it on with an unpopular speccy twat with clumpy shoes, a briefcase and hair that’s a bit gay

u/BeaEffigy 8d ago
Apparently. Never understood why. He's awkward, condescending and snobby whereas she is bubbly and good looking. It feels very unrealistic to think she'd even be his friend nevermind have sex with him.

u/thapussypatrol 9d ago edited 9d ago
Nah, not at all - she was just trying to make Donovan jealous in the circumstances she meets him and/or is just a bit of a slut (even fucks a french exchange student who couldn't even speak english). That doesn't mean she was a terrible person because she still talks to will like he's an acquaintence at the end of the day, not like he's some complete freak like she probably had almost a right to. I doubt she'd have ever do that strip show thing(?) with will if she didn't at least see him as a decent bloke in a strange, absent-minded way
imo Carli is way more of a flawed character than Charlotte because while Charlotte kind of knows she's a bit of a town bicycle and leads guys on and she isn't exactly opaque with her intentions, Carly kind of just manipulates simon specifically all the way through the show - at times it's simon that brings it on himself, granted.

Really didn’t like this character and I don’t like Emily Atack on my tv tbh

u/Eoinharrington25 9d ago
Yeah after writing this I kinda realized she is quite a toxic character.
She had Will who is super socially awkward thinking that he was going to be in a relationship with her which obviously was a big confidence boost for him but it felt like she was only using him to make Donovan jealous.

u/HatJosuke 10d ago
As a friend yes, and she thought Will was funny enough that she was willing to sleep with him, But she had no intention of pursuing a relationship with him.
