I'm laying on my bed and all I smell is your cologne. You haven't been around much lately.. so it's unexplainable. I just know it's giving me incredible comfort with where I'm at. I'm undeniably head over heels and I can't say it enough.

I hope what happened to me doesn't happen to you. It's the worst when I can wash my sheets multiple times yet it still seems like his scent is hiding in every corner of every thread. Or how my air freshener in my room is actually burning his cologne instead of some fresh spring scent. Or how my car smells like him as soon as I pull up to his house and I have to take a few moments to gain my composure before I go inside. If only smell wasn't my strongest sense. If only scents didn't go hand in hand with memories. Oh, the joys of falling for best friends. /lifestory.

...wow. I'm depressing.

I'm glad you're happy, though. Truly. You deserve it.

i can totally relate to the down side of scents being tied to memory. i'm sure you know all about this from my journal, but i fell in love with a kid when i was like.. 14, and he drove me crazy for a good 3 years. he always wore the same cologne. and every time i smelled it on someone else or on a shirt it was the worst feeling. it was worse than any memory i could've thought of.
you're not depressing.

and thank you, things are still shaky, but i'm definitely getting there. i have a bad feeling it's not going to last.
