So mine's obviously a Stevie lyric reference that I started using around the 8th grade. I was an emo little middle schooler and related the "Said no to him again and again/ first he took my heart than he ran" to my one of my best friends. I pretty much worshipped the ground this kid walked on, he was my first kiss, we were as close as two thirteen/fourteen year olds could be, but we WERE thirteen or fourteen and he wasn't "cool enough" for me to date. I was also an asshole back then. Anyway, "Like a willow I can bend" was my instruction to myself to stop being such a jackass, stop caring what people who weren't really my friends would say and just go ahead and date this guy.
This is also the boyfriend I bitch and moan about having broken up with this winter.
