surprisingly most ppl dont agree w/ u but yeah, it is smart summer camp rules, yknow whatever happens here stays here & then afterwards u move on
[ It's what Reggie says, and certainly what he thinks he wants -- what he thinks is the smartest approach to take here -- but as a plan it really only works in theory. He's still here while he's here, which means his mind and his emotions still function as normal; whether or not the relationships he makes here aren't supposed to be real or important, they will be anyway. Even if only here, in this little vacuum of reality.
But that's the hardest part to accept, maybe-- that something can be temporary yet still meaningful. Summer camp rules tend to demand the opposite... but you usually still do remember summer camp afterward. If they won't rememeber any of this, if it'll just be like it never even happened again once they're home, how meaningful can it really be? ]
my boss is a therapist
[ And also kind of like a dad; Reggie thinks of him a bit as such, if not in such a direct way. Still also kind of a dick, but a much better dad-figure than Reggie's real dad. Not that Reggie's going to make any further comment to that point-- maybe dads are (or can be) the worst, but he still has too much respect for his own to say so. ]
& hes all right not MY therapist tho seems like kind of a bad idea to get that close to ur own doctor
