I don't think Cam ever thought of Booth as someone she could settle down, and I think she even eluded it to that after they broke up. She was newly in town, trying to settle into a new job that had some demanding personalities (ie: Brennan) and Booth was always around. I totally see that Cam saw that eventually Booth and Brennan couldn't be denied, but as long as they kept denying it and she saw that it would be a long journey for Brennan. She found herself falling back into something with Booth, it was easy because of their history.

Yeah, Booth told her he would be gone if she canned Brennan. So she still went into it, knowing that Brennan was always his first priority, whether he knew he had feelings at time yet... But after Alien in a Spaceship, and she saw the depth of their connection, I think it was always on borrowed time, and she knew it. And it's not like she felt threatened.

Only Hannah mildly seem threatened by their closeness... and yet she wasn't as committed as Booth wanted himself to be, so it was never a deal breaker for their relationship.

But Cam, I think at that time in her life was looking for something simple. Sex, as it started as... and grew into rekindled relationship, but nothing permanent. Booth didn't look at Cam as long term potential. But given he was having bed sessions with his ex Rebecca right as he was reconnecting with Cam, he still coming to terms and wasn't ready to settle down. As much as he deep down always wanted to.

I can see what you mean about Booth & Cam’s relationship being more of a strictly physical one that was only going to be short-term, and not an emotional long-term relationship, especially from Booth’s perspective. Although there were times earlier in season 2 when it seemed like Cam had showed some hints of jealousy over Booth’s relationship with Brennan, so that just gave me the impression that perhaps for while, even if it was just for a brief short period of time, that maybe Cam had wished that their relationship could’ve been something more, maybe due to their long history together. But of course it didn’t take long for her to realise the close bond between Booth & Brennan was undeniable, and that Brennan would always be Booth’s first priority.

As for Hannah, she definitely harboured some jealousy and insecurities about Booth & Brennan’s closeness, and she had every right to be…even after she befriended Brennan, I think deep down a part of her still felt some uneasiness and suspicions about B&B’s close relationship.

I love the fact that Booth’s love for Brennan is so deep and unwavering, even though he has dated other women before and has loved other women, but his love for those other women were nowhere near as strong as his love for Brennan. I mean, first he broke up with Rebecca after she refused to marry him, then he dumped Hannah as soon as she rejected his marriage proposal too…obviously he did not love either of them enough to stay with them. But Brennan was the only woman Booth has ever loved whom he stayed with even after she had told him many times before that she did not want to get married either. As a devote Catholic, not being married was a sin to Booth, so was having a child out of wedlock, and Brennan’s initial reluctance to get married, yet despite all of that, Booth still happily stayed with Brennan And it wasn’t just because they had a daughter together, he also had Parker with Rebecca but they could not make their relationship work even despite having a child together. Brennan was just like his 2 previous significant girlfriends in the sense that neither of these women wanted to get married, but Booth’s love for Brennan was much stronger, strong enough for him to commit sins in order to stay with her and their daughter. I remember his old Army buddy Aldo Clemmons once told Brennan that Booth was willing to sacrifice his soul for her, he would do anything for her, even kill or die for her. That’s how much Booth loves Brennan so deeply and unconditionally! Before Brennan married Booth, she was this very independent woman who initially did not believe in marriage, and even though Brennan eventually agreed to marry Booth, but I think that was largely because it was what Booth wanted. There’s no doubt Brennan loves Booth very much too, if not just as much as Booth loves her, and I think over time Brennan gradually became more receptive of the idea of marriage…but like Aldo had said, Booth still wanted to marry Brennan more than she wanted to marry him, ultimately I think the main reason she agreed to marry Booth was because she wanted to give him what he wanted and she wanted to make him happy, and getting married was what Booth wanted for them

Yes I think that Cam always knew that her and Booth weren't headed anywhere serious and that they were just having fun. I think Hannah wasn't always comfortable with Booth and Brennan's closeness.

That's another great video!

I think I am not as bothered by Cam and Booth as I am Booth and Hannah because I never saw Booth and Cam as serious. They just didn't seem that serious. I knew they cared about each other, but maybe not in a romantic way.

Ms Cyatt

I love that video.

I totally agree. I definitely was way more bothered by Hannah and Booth then I was by Booth and Cam.

Booth's relationship with Cam didn't really bother me either because it wasn't really a serious relationship, it was mainly just a short term sexual relationship that really wasn't meaningful, especially from Booth's perspective. Of course Booth still cared about Cam but only because they were friends and had known each other for many years.
Booth's relationship with Hannah was definitely more significant...but I probably wasn't as bothered by them as you guys were, because I knew that Booth & Brennan were going to get together eventually, it was just a matter of time before Booth broke up with Hannah and be with Brennan So by knowing beforehand that B&B were meant to be together and that it was inevitable for them to hook up sooner or later it really helped me to tolerate Booth's temporary relationship with Hannah.
