First Impressions

She looks at me like I am the center of the universe. I am the center of her universe, for now, at least. it won’t stay that way forever. It will change gradually, till one day I will be just an after thought in her life.

It goes the same way with all my girlfriends. I am the master of first impressions, and they stay really impressed for a while. Soon enough, they begin to look past it and finally see through me. The literally see through me, like I am not there, like I do not exist for her anymore. The first impression fades away, and I fade away along with it. It’s a curse, that masterful first impression.
