The sentence is as follows: I'm not obsessed with you; I'm obsessed with what you did.
Focusing specifically on the replacement of "with you" with "what you did." Is there a grammatical term or rhetorical device this replacement could be labeled? I'm sorry to bother with my silly question, but I'm having a total blank right now! Also- if anything is wrong with the sentence, could you let me know?
@syntacticmaniac,
Hi Syntacticmaniac,
I think the sentence is perfect no need to change it.
"I'm not obsessed with you; I'm obsessed with what you did."
