Confession #3: The more you try to hold on to me, the more I want to run screaming in the other direction.

It happens to everyone sooner or later. Things are trucking along, everything's good, then you begin to notice something strange about your boyfriend/girlfriend/classmate: they always seem to be where you are, whether or not their classes warrant it. They follow you to lunch. They follow you to your car. They watch silently as you play cards with other friends, talk on the phone, or read your book. Their eyes are burning a small but persistent hole in the side of your head. 

They call you. They text you. They e-mail you. They comment everything you've ever posted on facebook, even stuff that's three weeks old and has nothing to do with them. 

And then they invite themselves on an outing you've planned with someone else. What are you supposed to do now?
