Marcie suffers from unrequited love for Charlie Brown, but unlike her best friend, she is more open about these feelings. She often goes over to Charlie Brown, and asks him if he likes her. Unfortunately, Marcie is always rebuffed by Charlie Brown, as he never quite gets the message, even when Marcie outright tells him that she likes him. When Marcie is not trying to get Charlie Brown's attention, she acts very kindly towards Charlie Brown, and offers him advice, and makes him feel good.
