#but guys ik maria kinda objectified blaine at the start but didnt he do the same thing too

[screechingcheesecakecheesecake]

Rereading CPC but now I think about it, even if Maria and Blaine didn't end up together, it's clear that his betrayal really affected a huge part of her regardless.

Like, we understand why Blaine behaved the way he did. But we can't discount that Maria, even with all her faults genuinely did do her best to make the relationship work. She tried to understand him deeper, and accepted his insecurities. She corrected her ways when she realized that she was being too openly perverted towards him. Even if uncomfortable, she tried to appease to his mother, and not tell her sisters about Isolde's aggression. She was willing to get to know him more and catch him if he had fallen. Even if he wasn't the perfect dreamy prince she wanted, she tried.

And part of her hoped that Blaine still had it in him to not go lower when she begged him to stop the invasion at the Pastel Kingdom. It will remain in her memory, that the secret she trusted Blaine with was the key to the Pastel Kingdom's invasion. That because of that trust, Gwen who was in a comatose, became even more in danger. That her sister and their maids had to fight and get hurt to defend their kingdom.

The way she acts now, her becoming more mature. Blaine's fall and his freedom will always haunt a part of her. In a way, she lost her innocence due to Blaine's betrayal.

In the end, she was a cursed princess, and her curse was meeting Blaine.
