You can’t forbid things from me because I will want to do it more,” she said. “If I want to text him, I’m gonna text him.“Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello at the Met Gala in New York City.Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic"You need to know that it’s not going to work and then you need to be over it and you need to be like, ‘I did it. And I know,'” she added.On the reconciliation, Cabello said those same thoughts were going through her mind.“I’m kind of impulsive in that way I would say. I feel like it if I feel it I say it and I’m not really good at not doing that. Because then the worst place for it to live in is my mind and then I’m like Ryan Gosling inThe Notebookbuilding a house for this person. So I would rather say it and see what happens and then wake up then next morning and find out that it’s been heavily documented,” she said.“It is what it is.
