Week 3: Discussion

-

 Based on the discussions about relationships, if you were the guy (best friend) in the video, do you think it is worth it to stay in the relationship?

I will stay by her side until the end, not because I know it is worth staying, but because I love her. For me, it is not a valid and acceptable reason to leave my best friend just because I am not the one she always chooses. The friendship, memories, and connection we have formed with each other are more important than everything else. Maybe someday, as her best friend, I would be honest in expressing my true feelings to her, that at some point in my life I imagined her as my romantic partner. So what is the sense of our long friendship if we are not honest and comfortable sharing our feelings? And then either thing stays the same, or they change for the better.

1. Why is the title called "Chameleon"? - A chameleon is a reptile that changes its body color to make them invisible. Sometimes it is their form of adaptation to the environment. The television commercial is entitled “Chameleon” because Cam (the main character) is always changing her lifestyle and personality based on her boyfriend. She believes that having the same interests, hobbies, and wants is the key to having a perfect relationship. As simple as it is, like a chameleon, they both change to adapt to their surroundings.  2. Which specific instances in the video showed that Cam lost herself? - For me, Cam lost herself from the beginning until the 3rd boyfriend she had. It is obvious that every time she changes her appearance, how she dresses, and her personality is clear evidence that she is not in her true form. I believe that c hanging a part of your personality is also changing and letting go of something you are because you are not in your own personality. Maybe Cam
