I think her thing for Matt was just a crush, but she's just a person of extremes so she took it as being in love with him, even though they barely knew each other. And she had a weirdly idealized view of Matt, so I think she liked the idea of him more than anything.
I really, really love her and Matt's friendship. They're both so messed up in similar ways and I think they would have been a very dysfunctional couple, but they're both so prone to making terrible life choices, so I'm honestly surprised that they didn't sleep together or date. Like I feel like they had a lot of potential to be a terrible combination and hurt each other, but instead they developed this awesome friendship that was good for them. I love it. I love that these two super damaged people manage to be a bright spot in each other's lives.
