People often tell me not to take anything for granted.

But I don't think that's something I can help.

It's human nature to become comfortable with something.

Every time I see my boyfriend I don't yelp

with joy or excitement. I've seen him a thousand times.


And when we break up, whenever that may be,

I'll be in tears on the floor because I was too

jaded by his presence to appreciate him

and that some new girl will make him happier because she

loves and appreciates him more than I ever could.
