Let’s not forget, that sadly Finnick was a victim of sex trafficking.

“President Snow used to … sell me… my body, that is,” Finnick begins in a flat, removed tone.
“I wasn’t the only one. If a victor is considered desirable, the president gives them as a reward or allows people to buy them for an exorbitant amount of money. If you refused, he kills someone you love. So you do it.”

That explains it, then. Finnick’s parade of lovers in the Capitol. They were never real lovers. […] I want to interrupt the taping and beg Finnick’s forgiveness for every false thought I’ve ever had about him. But we have a job to do and I sense Finnick’s role will be far more effective than mine.

“I wasn’t the only one, but I was the most popular,” he says. “And perhaps the most defenseless, because the people I loved were so defenseless. To make themselves feel better, my patrons would make presents of money of jewelry, but I found a much more valuable form of payment.”

It adds so many different parts to his character. I think he needs more appreciation. We don’t credit him for what he went through, and how he still. Still stayed a nice guy. A guy you could trust.
