Emotional baggage? Me?

Pfft.

Yea, I smoke. But does that really mean anything? Says over at Dating Dames that when a person has an obsessive habit like, uh, smoking, it's a sure sign of emotional baggage. Hmmm. Makes you wonder, huh?

Well-- let me think.

I've been technically single for over 5 years. Don't laugh.

It took me a while to get over it. Is 3 years a short time? Hahaha. It's true!

It was during the latter part of that 2nd year that I started to pick up the habit. I made the mistake of getting back together with him, you see. Stupid, I know.

I date half-heartedly. It's like I want to throw myself into it but when I find myself in it, I often try to find a way out. I'm not proud of that, okay.

Dated but never had a that inclination to settle. Not proud of that either. Bleh.

According to my sister, I choose the wrong type of men. I wish to God that it's not true but--

Leads me to this, I attract the worst kind. Either they're attached or married. Hehehe. Home-wrecker. Well, not really. Teehee.

I have a strong attachment to the song, Ten Days by Missy Higgins.

So we've put an end to it this time.
I'm no longer yours and you're no longer mine.
You said this hill looks far too steep
If I'm not even sure it's me you wanna keep.
And it's been ten days without you in my reach,
And the only time I've touched you is in my sleep.

But time has changed nothing at all
You're still the only one that feels like home.
I've tried cutting the ropes and
I let you go but you're still the only one
That feels like home.

You won't talk me into it next time,
If I'm going away your heart's coming too.
Cuz I miss your hands. I miss your face.
When I get back, let's disappear without a trace.

Cuz it's been ten days without you in my reach,
And the only time I've touched you is in my sleep.

But time has changed nothing at all
You're still the only one that feels like home.
I've tried cutting the ropes,
Tried letting go but you're still the only one
That feels like home.

So tell me, did you really think
Oh tell me, did you really think
I had gone when you couldn't see me anymore?
When you couldn't

Cuz baby time has changed nothing at all
You're still the only one that feels like home.
And I've tried cutting the ropes,
I let you go but you're still the only one
That feels like home, yeah,
You're still the only one that feels like home,
You're still the only one I've gotta love.

So, based on all the facts stated above, you think I do have a baggage?

If I quit smoking, would it prove that I don't?

Seriously, I think I need help in this department.
