Absolutely 100%. She was a sperg herself and Chris was a funny oddball turbosperg but they shared the same interests (some feigned or adapted by Chris in an attempt to get China) which is what most spergy friendships are about (see the idea in childhood development of parallel play in which small children play doing the same stuff but don't actually interact–normallt they grew out of this.) Remember Chris was weird as fuck but not necessarily completely repulsive (Mimms et al detailed weird behavior but noted he didn't smell, etc.) up until he started with the sexual harassment. Her response to that was too firmly friendzone him–not to immediately run. Because she was unironically his friend but not interested in him romantically. Of course being who he is he didn't get it, she came for CWC, etc. and fuck, I would've changed my name. But still. Initially it was legit friendship. Perhaps the only one he's ever had which makes it all the more tragic.
I've always thought that perhaps Megan genuinely felt sorry for Chris because he reminded her of her brother, who is also mentally handicapped. I don't think anything could've prepared her for Chris's handicapped morality, though.
