Interesting. For me, I learned OO with Perl (scary, I know), but really started grokking it when I learned to Java. Finally, I started studying Smalltalk and when I found out that it doesn't have "if" statements (it creates boolean objects you can send ifTrue/ifFalse messages to said objects). Once I grokked that, it was like my eyes opened. I still have more to learn, but OO programming is so much easier and more pleasant after understanding how multiple languages approach it.
