It also makes me think about all of the people I’ve cut off before getting to know. What amazing relationships and opportunities have I squashed without realizing it? I sit there for long minutes, contemplating my life, and my friends sit silently with me as I process this new insight.

right off the bat, i get cami 100%
most won’t, and will find her behavior annoying but she’s real idk. trusting men is HARD. it’s fucking difficult as fuck. and to have one pass all these mental tests and knock down the barriers you have up? terrifying. i think if i ever met my unicorn of a man i would run the opposite way too and probably try to find more flaws just like cami did. 
… happy for her tho 😵‍💫
this was adorable and i loved how zach understood and was so patient with her. real men could never.
