Get ready for a love story that will leave you questioning everything! The unconventional path to Cameron Brink's heart has fans divided.
In a surprising twist, WNBA star Cameron Brink's engagement to Ben Felter began with an email. Yes, you read that right! While most would opt for the modern approach of sliding into DMs, Felter took a different route.
During their time at Stanford University, where Brink shone as a basketball star and Felter rowed, he decided to reach out via email. His message, with the subject 'Attempting to mingle', read: 'Hey Cameron, Wanted to chat you up but I think [DMs] are a bit creepy. Not that an email is much better so here's my number.'
Brink shared this email on TikTok, and the internet had a field day. Some found it charming, while others branded it 'creepy'. One user commented, 'Sir, you didn't avoid the creep allegations; you elevated them!' Another joked, 'Emailing your crush? Either brave or unhinged, but it worked!'
But here's where it gets controversial... Is an email more or less creepy than a DM? Some fans think Felter's old-school approach is charming, while others believe he's out of touch with technology.
Despite the mixed reactions, Felter's move clearly paid off. He proposed to Brink in 2024, and they've been together since 2021. Their love story is a reminder that sometimes, taking a unique approach can lead to something special.
And this is the part most people miss: Brink revealed her dating 'icks' last year, and grammar is a big one for her. So, Felter's email, with its casual tone and subject line, might just have been the perfect icebreaker.
So, what do you think? Is an email a bold move or a creepy one? Let us know in the comments!
