Bill considered him a friend more than a student. A time where you can tell Charlie really enjoyed Bill's company was when Bill was leaving and Charlie said “it was hard saying goodbye to him after  class was over” and when another student called Charlie a “teachers pet” but he didn't mind it.

Charlie and Mary- At the beginning of the relationship between Mary and Charlie, there are problems. She doesn’t pay any attention to what he wants. Instead, she likes Charlie because he is such a good listener since he can act as a foil to reflect her brilliance. In some ways, the connection is good since it provides him with comfort and stability. Mary isn’t a foul person, and she doesn’t treat Charlie horribly, but she also doesn’t let him be himself.

Charlie and Aunt Helen-  Helen was Charlie’s favorite aunt, who moved in with his family. At the end of the novel, Charlie realizes that his aunt molested him every Saturday night. Since Charlie represses the memories of his abuse for much of the story, he generally thinks of Helen because the only person in his otherwise cold family to point out his affection, and he also loved that she gave him books to read. Helen encompasses a recurring role in his memories, almost like a ghost of his repressed trauma.

Charlie and Sam- Sam has a strong bond with Charlie. She helps him open up physically and emotionally. They first meet at a football game when Charlie comes to sit with Sam and Patrick. At a party at Bob's house, we see the caring side of Sam when she gets angry at Bob for giving Charlie a weed brownie and is one of the only people not to laugh at him.
