class="article-copy-container clearfix"> <p>If Season 3 of <a href="https://junkee.com/tag/sex-education"><em>Sex Education</em></a> made one thing abundantly clear, it’s that no one has had more character growth<em> </em>than sweet ole Adam Groff.</p> <p>Starting the series off as Moordale Secondary’s school bully and the show’s villain, Adam quickly became a fan favourite over the duration of the latest season of <em>Sex Education. </em></p><div class="xw2tDb6Y"><div id="advert-mantelpiece-incontent" class="advert-mrec advert-mrec-incontent"></div></div> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>— Spoilers for Season 3 of <em>Sex Education </em>ahead —</strong></p><div class="YYH8PIF8"> <div id='teads-outstream' style='height:1px; width:1px;'></div></div> <p>After bullying Eric for years, Adam came to the realisation that he was actually bisexual when a fight with Eric turned into a kiss in Season 2.</p> <p>Going back and forth on his emotions, the season ended with Adam publicly declaring his love for Eric once he came to terms with his identity as a bisexual man. This public gesture ultimately led to Eric choosing Adam over his French love interest, Rahim, at the end of Season 2. So, in Season 3, <em>Sex Education </em>obviously focused on Adam and Eric’s unbelievably adorable blossoming romance.</p> <div> <div><div class="related-articles"> <div class="related-articles__single "> <div class="related-articles__heading"> Related </div> <div class="articles__group clearfix"> <a class="related-articles__single__image" href="https://archive.junkee.com/sex-education-interview/239949" target="_self"> <img decoding="async" src="//archive.junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/sexed.jpg" /> </a> <a class="related-articles__single__title" href="https://archive.junkee.com/sex-education-interview/239949" target="_self"> <span class="related-articles__single__group"> <span class="related-articles__item--title">We Talked To 'Sex Education' Stars Ncuti And Asa About The Magic Of Eric And Otis's Friendship</span> </span> </a> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> <p>With Eric’s support, Adam came out of his shell. He dabbled in makeup, the couple went on public dates together, he was welcomed into Eric’s family with open arms, the pair eventually had sex after figuring out the whole top-bottom situation, and Adam and Eric both professed their mutual love for each other.</p><div class="2CqrD0mm"><div class="advert-mrec advert-mrec-incontent" id="advert-mrec-incontent-1"></div></div> <p>But Adam’s journey of self-acceptance and self-discovery was not without hiccups. The reformed bully had to use Otis’ unwelcomed advice to learn how to communicate his wants and needs better, and Eric and Ola had to teach Adam that violence and aggression aren’t the way to solve problems or deal with people judging his sexuality.</p> <p>Sadly, despite all his growth, Adam was left heartbroken at the end of Season 3 when Eric called it quits after feeling like he was being held back in the relationship. Ouch.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">i felt so bad for adam he went through more pain than what he deserved to. he had kids make fun of him for being with a guy, felt pressured by eric many times when he is trying to figure things out, gets cheated on and broken up with and all he wants is to be better <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SexEducation?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SexEducation</a> <a href="https://t.co/rT3iutXYdY">pic.twitter.com/rT3iutXYdY</a></p> <p>— alfie (@barcharvina) <a href="https://twitter.com/barcharvina/status/1438938848503865354?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 17, 2021</a></p><div class="lw7E4MNB"><div class="advert-mrec advert-mrec-incontent" id="advert-mrec-incontent-2"></div></div></blockquote> <p><script data-cfasync="false" src="/cdn-cgi/scripts/5c5dd728/cloudflare-static/email-decode.min.js"></script><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> <h2>Adam, And His Poem, Deserved Better</h2> <p>It’s safe to say, the third season of <em>Sex Education </em>well and truly ended in heartbreak. For Otis, it was finally getting with Maeve and then watching her leave for America. For Jean, it was discovering that Jakob was probably not the father of her baby. And for Adam, it was being cheated on, then dumped, by his first love.</p> <p>Adam’s heartbreak is especially sad considering how much he changed for Eric. He pushed the boundaries of what he was comfortable with to please Eric and even changed his interests to keep his partner happy.</p> <p>Most notably, Adam even befriended Rahim to learn more about what his boyfriend liked and discovered Eric was fond of poetry. And despite thinking poetry was stupid at first, Adam decided to dabble in writing to cater to Eric’s interests. The result? Absolutely tear-jerking stuff.</p><div class="a0rJ7kvc"><div class="advert-mrec advert-mrec-incontent" id="advert-mrec-incontent-3"></div></div> <p>After Adam claimed responsibility for Rahim’s embarrassing moment of, erm, flinging a sock of literal shit out of a bus in France, Rahim and Adam surprisingly ended up becoming friends of sorts.</p> <p>As friends, Rahim agreed to give Adam feedback on the poem he tried to write for Eric. And while Adam’s poems started out shit, he eventually took Rahim’s advice of writing from the heart on board to produce one of the most heart-wrenching moments in <em>Sex Education: </em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrvYdsAPhhA&ab_channel=Suitalone"><em>the </em>poem</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>A boy I don’t like told me to write from the heart</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I didn’t know what that meant because I never knew I had one</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I never knew I had a heart </em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>‘Til you said you kissed a boy I haven’t met</em></p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Then I knew I had a heart </em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Because I thought it might stop</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>And when I thought my heart might stop beating</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I realised it had always been there</em></p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>But it didn’t know how to feel </em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Until I thought about losing you</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I knew we wouldn’t last forever</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I was waiting for this day</em></p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>But I hope we can fix things</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>And if we can’t</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>I will always thank you</em></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>For showing me I have a heart</em></p> <p> </p> <p>While breaking up was probably the right thing for the couple, Adam’s poem revealed that he was left heartbroken by the revelation that Eric cheated. Yet, even though he was pained by the betrayal, he still thanked Eric for helping him discover things about himself that he never knew.</p> <p>In a surprise to no one, Adam’s poem has left <em>Sex Education </em>fans absolutely beside themselves. And after seeing Adam Groff’s growth from closeted bully to proud bisexual man with a love for dog training and a natural skill for poetry, it’s clear Adam is the true main character of the show.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/sexeducation?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#sexeducation</a> season 3 episode 8 spoilers //</p> <p>no thoughts just adam’s poem on my mind <a href="https://t.co/GNH4dfhMsh">pic.twitter.com/GNH4dfhMsh</a></p> <p>— cath ? sex education spoilers (@filmscobi) <a href="https://twitter.com/filmscobi/status/1439178317308080129?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 18, 2021</a></p></blockquote> <p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">adam’s poem <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/sexeducation?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#sexeducation</a> <a href="https://t.co/TGDoySONdo">pic.twitter.com/TGDoySONdo</a></p> <p>— C.
