the thing that people don’t get about djats is that it’s about people who are bad for each other and want what other people can’t give them and resent each other for it anyway. it’s about daisy going after a man she knows will hurt her because she hates herself and because she believes that if the man who loves someone like camila (who’s everything daisy believes she can’t be) can love someone like her then it’ll heal something broken. but it doesn’t. all it does is give her another reason to hate herself and camila Refuses to let her. she tells her that she’s worth saving and daisy’s never had anyone tell her that and that’s what pushes her to get sober. billy sees daisy the same way he sees his addiction and his decision to stay with camila is a decision to change. to not relapse. to be everything his father wasn’t. daisybilly finding each other later in life is them giving each other a second chance. as different people who won’t burn each other up. and the reason both of them are even alive is camila. who told both of them they were worth that second chance. that’s what makes it beautiful and people just don’t. get it!
