As I mentioned in my last post I have strong attachment to smells. I also have strong attachments to things. I think to most women it doesn't seem odd but I think the majority of men do get it because it's just stuff.
But not for me. I kept a bottle of water Jeffrey left in the car on the way to the airport for over a week because it made me think of him. I have a cough drop that he gave me when I was sick, I just couldn't use it. A bottle cap from another night. A note written on a gum wrapper during church when we were teens. A broken ring from matching rings we shared as kids. And a rock from 1997. Things mean things to me.
My husband rocks because he gets that. He doesn't care that I keep all of this silliness that takes up space in our home and he is willing to get rid of things that are to hard for me to keep.
