I have a girlfriend. Unless you’re completely oblivious, I’m obviously crazy about the girl I’ve been writing about in my poems and we’ve been an official couple now for almost a month and a half. Her name is Melanie and you can see pictures of us all over my MySpace under the picture album titled “-=53=-”.

To be honest, the situation is a bit complicated at times because of, wait for it….the age difference between us. Maybe this is my way of addressing the issue once and for all without having to approach the topic with every person I know on an individual basis, but I struggled with it for a while myself until I realized that there are some things in life we can’t control. I really do like her and, yeah, I love her, too. I couldn’t change that for the months that I fought it and I don’t want to change it now. It’s cool if you don’t understand and I’m sure a few people are going to look at me oddly, but we’re being open about this and everyone who needs to know, does. You guys and girls are sort of the last to find out.

I really had no point in writing this journal entry other than bragging a bit about how happy I am with Melanie. For those of you who know all the details and have noticed the change in me, thank you for your kind words and well wishes. To the people who are uneasy with the idea or don’t know what to think: Please, just give it time. She makes me happy and I try my best to return the favor. We’re just two kids in love and I think we deserve a fair chance to prove to everyone how real this is.
