"Little Miss Obsessive, can't get over it."

I just realized something.

My boyfriend is better for me than Rob ever was. I've obviously been attached to Rob in an unhealthy way for a very long time. I never thought I'd get over him. And I suppose a part of me never will.

But Rob taught me to embrace my freak side.
My boyfriend is teaching me that I was never a freak to begin with.

Rob taught me to love and nurture my inner child.
My boyfriend is teaching me maintain both adulthood and wide-eyed wonder.

Rob taught me what electrity feels like.
My boyfriend is teaching what it's like to INVENT electricity.

Rob and I had been sleeping together for almost two years before we fell in love.
My boyfriend has not yet attempted to sleep with me. We're still too nervous to kiss.

Rob is the reason I started smoking weed. I can't cry when I'm stoned.
My boyfriend is the reason that I don't need to smoke.

Rob broke my heart, disowned me and forced a permanent ache into my heart.
My boyfriend has shown me the meaning of friendship, won my heart and softened that ache.

Ladies and gentlemen...
I believe I'm growing up.
