Editing Neil Sutherland (section)

== Relationships ==

=== Friendships: ===
'''[[Jay Cartwright]]:''' Neil and Jay are best friends, possibly because Neil is slow to pick up on Jay's consistent lying and is very vulnerable to Jay peer pressuring him. Their friendship is evident from Series 1 to Series 3 and then again in both of the movies.

'''[[Simon Cooper]]:''' Neil and Simon are quite close friends, despite a slight difficulty in making conversation between one another when Will and Jay aren't present. Despite this, Neil and Simon do have a strong friendship. Neil is a lot more sympathetic than Jay towards Simon as he often tends to him when he's upset and often helps him with anything he needs help with, such as getting changed for the fashion show in series 3.

'''[[Will McKenzie]]:''' Neil and Will are friends; even though Neil and the group tried to avoid Will at first, they gradually accepted him into the group, Neil often fantasises over Will's mum, even making her a Valentine's Day card. He also reveals to Will that he masturbates over her in Home Alone. Neil reveals that he does care a lot for Will, though, as he asks Simon in The Camping Trip that if he wants him to look after Will when Simon moves to Wales, he also admits to Will that he worries about him. In the movie, Neil and Will maintain the friendship (even though Will says "The lads on tour" with Neil replying "and you", which shows that he may not consider him to be fully part of the group yet). This is shown when he and Will have a heart to heart conversation. They develop a full and strong friendship in the first movie and maintain it throughout the second movie.

=== Romance ===
'''Girl at the Caravan Camp''': In Caravan Club, when the boys are driving home from the caravan camp, the group notice stains on the seats of the car. Neil then reveals that they are stains from his semen as he and the girl from the caravan club came into Simon's car soon after the party, where she gave him several handjobs and he fingered her.

'''Girl at Jay's party''': Neil mentions in Xmas Party that he "fingered a bird" at one of Jay's birthday parties.

'''Charlotte Hinchcliffe:''' Neil does mention to Will at the end of The Fasion Show, that he did kiss Charlotte once and also hints to Simon and Jay that he had fingered her.

'''Kerry:''' Neil mentions to Will, Simon and Jay in Will's Birthday that after Will was thrown out of his house for unintentionally upsetting Kerry at his birthday party, he received oral sex from her several times that night in his bedroom.

'''<nowiki/>'Saucy Asda' Karen:''' During Series 3, Neil works on-off at Asda and begins a relationship with a co-worker named Karen (who works at the cheese counter). In the final episode of series 3, Neil worries that he has impregnated Karen after having sex with her as she texted him claiming she was "positive", but receives a text near the end of the episode revealing she was "positive" for chlamydia, not pregnancy. He celebrates the fact that he has contracted an STD from her, assuming that this is a good thing.

'''Nicole:''' In the first Inbetweeners movie Neil has an age-appropriate girlfriend named Nicole, whom he swears he couldn't cheat on whilst on holiday because he thinks he loves her and he has "effics" (ethics); however, his definition of cheating changes conveniently with his sexual activity, such as it's not cheating if there's no kissing, or not if only "the tip goes in; any more than that is cheating".

'''Lisa:''' Despite already having a girlfriend (Nicole), Neil meets and becomes attracted to Lisa during the first Inbetweeners movie, he is the first to show interest in Lisa, Alison, Jane and Lucy. Lisa at first struggles to get together with Neil as they found it hard to speak to each other and he often ends up dancing with older women every time she sees him. When it comes to the boat party, a boy called Richard introduces him to his parents when Neil is about to kiss his mother as a polite gesture, Lisa says her first line "Back off bitch, not this time". Neil then realises how much Lisa cares for him. However, Lisa finds out about his girlfriend during the boat party and she expresses her unhappiness with the situation because she too has "effics". Neil tells her Nicole dumped him before they left for Malia, he only claimed that he still had a girlfriend so Will, Simon and Jay didn't make fun of him. Lisa and Neil begin an official relationship and are constantly seen making out throughout the credits scenes. Neil's claims about not going out with Nicole any more are revealed to have not been true as she appears at the airport waiting to welcome him home. Neil quickly runs off with Lisa to avoid Nicole, leaving her confused. Neil and Lisa's relationship ends before the events of the "Inbetweeners 2".

'''Michelle:''' When the group find Jay in Australia, Neil mentions that he had fingered his cousin Michelle.

'''Nikki:''' '''Current Girlfriend (The Inbetweeners 2).''' Neil meets Nikki at Byron Bay when he is visiting Jay in Australia. While camping at the youth hostel, Nikki falls out with her husband round the camp-fire and takes off her shirt and sits next to Neil, clearly implying she is attracted to him. In the credits scenes, when Neil returns from Vietnam, he is greeted by his father, though ignores him and begins to make out with Nikki (who was also waiting for him at the airport); implying that they had begun a relationship.
