>!He says that Camilla was definitely interested in Richard and was into him until she began to spend time with Henry at the hotel where she subsequently fell in love with him. He said that Camilla and Richard were serious about their future together. !<
>!I completely disagree? I never got the sense that she was into Richard, perhaps interested but nothing serious at all. While she was leading him on, Richard was never really her main option to begin with. Maybe she was a bit interested in him but she rarely initiated much with Richard and left him in the dark for much of the book. But his interest in her surely amusing to Camilla. !<
>!What do you all think about the dynamics between Camilla and Richard? I feel really blindsided by the way my friend interpreted their relationship. Do you think Camilla felt strongly for Richard? Enough to consider a future? !<

I agree with you. >! If anything, it felt like an odd sort of parasocial relationship, almost. !<
Tbh Camilla and Richard dynamic weirdly reminded me so much of Daisy and Gatsby and she was definitely not into him, more into how he perceived her imo!
