I think Jack also suffered in silence a lot knowing Ennis and most of society would never accept their relationship. I know he felt stuck in his life in Texas knowing most of it was a lie.

Agreed. Well said.

  to you, jjeff.

That's a very good insight about acting one way with some people and another way with others and feeling conflicted when the two parties are thrown together. I think a lot of us have experienced behaving differently with different people and I imagine it would be very unsettling for us to find ourselves in a situation like that too. Especially with the fears Ennis had about anyone knowing about his relationship with Jack and the memories he carried from the event from his childhood.

I love what you said about Ennis using distance and solitude to control his feelings. It's heartbreaking but I think a very good analysis of how he led his life.

I don't tend towards headcanons much myself with fictional characters but that's an interesting take on Ennis. There is much of his personality and background from his formative years that we don't get to hear about so any number of things are possible. I've always viewed his reticence as a result of his somewhat lonely upbringing and reluctance to expose himself to others but perhaps if he were on the spectrum, it could have contributed to that quality. Which makes his reaction to finding a friend in Jack that first summer and being able to open up to him even more impressive. Just as his remaining a man of few words even after their relationship had progressed would make sense.

Thank you for sharing that perspective.

new to this forum, don’t know where to put this also sorry if this been a made a post already, but I’d like to hear opinions on headcanons in general I find them quite enjoyable and have some of my own such as I like to think Ennis has autism for kinda no other reason than I’m autistic myself and behave similarly to Ennis such as being semi-verbal but I would really like to hear from others!! very excited I am a huge fan of Brokeback Mountain.
