Anyway, at the end of the day, all Felix really wanted was to be seen as a normal guy.
It's his motovation for going out to all of the bars and parties and why he decided to pierce his eyebrow.
It's also why he gets so upset when Oliver decides to start cleaning his room at Oxford for him. At home (Saltburn), he has people catering to his every need and want; even things that he can do himself.
And when he was telling Oliver that they dress for dinner, be seemed to be a bit embarassed about this fact. His head was down and he kind of mumbled, "Yeah, it's like, black tie."
The activities that he and the others did during that summer were as typical and normal as it got for him, even though they were all doing these activities within the estate of a lavious mansion.
Last but not least, while he was certainly upset with Oliver for lying about everything, I think that he was more upset at the fact that Oliver had the regular, more "typical" life that he has secretly always dreamed of.
While it is clear that Oliver's fake sob story is what drew Felix to him in the first place, I strongly believe that he still would have been intrested in Oliver just to get a taste of normalacy. He also probably would have still invited Oliver to Saltburn, but not out of pity or sorrow. He would have invited him to show him what his life is really like and how lonely it can get sometimes. He would have wanted to show Oliver how grateful he should be to not have to live with the burden of the massive estate, the gobs of money, and the almost unmanagable expectations that were given to him from day one.
In conclusion, while I completly understand why he had to die, I also wanna say that he so deserved to have this nomal, salt-of-the-Earth type life!!!
