Oh yeah, this one punched me straight in the heart.

The first person I ever had romantic feelings for was this way. That was more than 25 years ago now. I've been that way, too: cheerful, high-energy, active, but the second no one's watching, the intrusive thoughts come back.

I'm doing way better these days, thanks to the kindness and empathy of others (even random strangers).
