Connell's mother, Lorraine (a high schol drop-out after pregnancy) works as a cleaner at Marianne's house twice a week.

Since Lorraine doesn't have a driver's licence, Connell picks her up from work, and this creates an opportunity for Connell and Marianne to meet.

Marianne is more of an outcast at school whereas Connell is popular at school. In private they are in a complicated relationship and Connell seems more insecure than Marianne.

The two abruptly end their relationship and meet again at uni in Dublin. They resume their relationship, but Connell is feeling a great sense of social inferiority at school. They break up again.

They remain friends and support each other, but in the eyes of others they are so caring for each other that they seem like lovers.

By the time they graduate, Connel has the opportunity to follow a graduate program abroad and Marianne tells him to go and that she will always be there for him.]]> 2022-05-12 04:17:36 UTC https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180567518 “Marianne had the sense that her real life was happening somewhere very far away, happening without her, and she didn't know if she would ever find out where it was or become part of it.”― Sally Rooney, Normal People bennornora https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180571961 2022-05-12 04:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180571961 “No one can be independent of other people completely, so why not give up the attempt, she thought, go running in the other direction, depend on people for everything, allow them to depend on you, why not.”― Sally Rooney, Normal People bennornora https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180573704 2022-05-12 04:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180573704 “Life offers up these moments of joy despite everything,”― Sally Rooney, Normal People bennornora https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180574838 2022-05-12 04:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bennornora/njpw7q3bk41tayqk/wish/2180574838 “I just hope you have confirmed he's not a psychopath.
