okay best friend’s brother always hits the spot for me, and ali hazelwood did not miss 😮‍💨

I’m literally begging for someone to be so gone for me that he waits actual years to improve himself before he admits he’s worthy of me LIKE PLEASE 😭 a walking green flag in action

jamie, on the other hand, desperately needs therapy!! like woo girl you straight up have this man telling you how much he loves you and you’re so insecure that even after decades of knowing him, you still think he’s lying? please help yourself!!! childhood trauma is a thing!!!!

the miscommunication (over a voicemail, are we fr though) knocked it down a whole star for me because seriously 😒 but I do love a man who won’t stop until he’s the best version of himself okay
