best intentions backfired

I said this weekend would be busy. I didn't get a chance to write yesterday and now I only have time for a quick note before I head out the door, not to return until 9p tonight.

As much as I say the Dave situation is over and done, it isn't. Being around him and his family filled a gap, a need in my existence. Now that he has forcibly extricated himself from that position, I find myself stuck on him more now than before. Whenever I see him at church I steal quick glances in his direction. I get apprehensive if he leaves the room (possibly never to return). The worst thing you can do to an obsessive is take away the object of their obsession because then they become more frantic to hold onto whatever they can that's left.

Dave, as much as you thought it would be a good idea, cutting me off was a bad move. You'll never get rid of me now.
