I felt like this film wasn't trying to say anything profound, but just shed light on the complexities of transitioning while trying to maintain old contacts and friendships. I'm sure Evan decided to leave his life when he did out of shame or guilt to go start his transition. I'm sure he found profound happiness, but realizing later on that he doesn't want to completely lose those people forever or out of nostalgia, wants to reconnect.

I felt Evans acting was on point for how he is probably feeling that night. He feels like he doesn't quite know how to act around his old friends, lovers, boyfriends. A little flat awkwardness is inevitable.

I'm glad this was shared with me! This was well put together. Selfishly, I wanted more closure at the end, but it wasn't necessary to understand the film.
