EUPHORIA (NATE&MADDIE)

"You're, like, the sweetest guy ever."
Maddy entered a relationship with Nate Jacobs. After watching the 1995 film Casino, Maddy began to idolize Sharon Stone's portrayal of Ginger McKenna, a rich showgirl who used her looks and wits to manipulate men into supporting her wealth. With her in mind, Maddy learned how to convince Nate to buy her expensive items by making him feel confident and powerful, partially via sex. She often watched porn to analyze the performers and learn new techniques, although she never gained arousal from doing so.

Maddy and Nate's relationship was tumultuous; they took multiple breaks, during which Maddy would often find herself hooking up with other guys including a DJ who said he opened for Calvin Harris, a stockbroker with a family, and a roller rink owner. She disliked Nate's volatile personality and feared that it would lead to him hurting her one day; despite this, she knew she would continue loving him regardless of his actions, a fact that made her "sick to her stomach".

At some point, she became a cheerleader in the East Highland cheer leading squad, alongside Cassie Howard.

The relationship between Nate and Maddie.
Sometime in high school, Maddy started to develop an attraction to Nate, which lasted for a while before Nate finally asked her out. Their relationship started very positively: Nate gave flowers for every day and really loved, or Maddy reciprocated. Maddy made sure she was a perfect girl for Nate: imitating sex workers in videos selected to please him, pretending to be a virgin or why Nate would stuff her with gifts like fur coats. However, later on, the two created a habit of breaking up, during which Maddy slept with other men. Despite being conscious, Nate still loved and the two are always made up. Nate also likes to fantasize about using violence against men in a situation where Maddy's life was in danger.
