Obsess

That's what I do. 
I obsess. 

But it's not a problem, it's a super power.
I am moved dramatically by my emotions. 
I am highly sensitive. 
I dive deep. 
What's the point if you're not going all the way.

I could name the women throughout my life that made it seem like a problem, an awkward quirk, a social problem, a downside to my personality. But I don't believe it to be true. If you want surface, look elsewhere. There are many.

Instead, I stay connected to the ones that encourage it, that explore the literature, the movies, the music with me. They're my people instead.
