Sommerauer71: Not that they like it, they can't help it.

They cannot straighten it out and find a way.

Until one of them makes the first step of sorting it out, we will be here in another seven years discussing it.

Like an addiction, until you realise it, you will keep on with it.


surely, they must know... but maybe not..

Looks to me like they don't.

I was the same, I kept going back to the same man for years, we would split and I felt I could not live without him.

I know now.

I didn't then, it looks like they don't know.

You really want to know?

Okay.

I left the country, I moved so far away cut all contact, changed my phone number, my email and went into solitary confinement to recover from it. For 18 months, I was alone in a country, where I had to learn the language. I forged a new life for myself and I came through. No longer addicted to him, no longer afraid to live a life without him, I was living but did not realise it.

Then I woke up one day and realised that I was waking up with a smile on my face instead of tears.

And that was when I knew I had turned a corner.

I never dated, I concentrated on me, I took care of myself.

I had broken the addiction, recovered and repaired and then a gorgeous man walked into my life and I never looked back.

I got off the hamster wheel, I climbed off and left it behind.

I normally don't like to post negative comments, but on this subject I will. Your friend and her boy friend are both losers. People who stay in bad relationships have issues. Both have something wrong. Tell you friend to 'get a pair' and move on! Kick the guy to the curb and keep him out of her life.

Hi John

I do become frustrated with the 'why do people remain in these relationships' threads.

I want to grab them and shake them and say, what are you doing, wake up.

That is easy for me to say now, but I can empathise because I did it for years.

Go to the book store and buy your friend this:

Emotionally Abused Woman: Overcoming Destructive Patterns and Reclaiming Yourself -- by Beverly Engel.

Gift wrap it and ask her to open her gift when she is by herself.

I think we all have had our hearts broken at some point, but often we do go back again and again. Women tend to see the best in everyone I think our forgiving nature is a gift. teddybear

Lets look at the pro's and cons...

Same guy repeatedly:
Pro: You have time to plot revenge in advance.
Con: You feel like and idiot.


A new guy each time:
Pro: He doesn't know about your left hook.
Con: You feel like a revolving door for idiots.



Looks like personal choice to me.

I don't know about that.
Sometimes getting our heart broken is a way to wake us up about our values and priorities.

As I teen I got hurt several times because I was chasing after the wrong kind of girls.

As a result, I missed out on some girls who were much more my type. I just didn't realize it at the time.

Getting hurt a few times helped me sort out my priorities and understand what really is and isn't worth pursuing.

I have absolutely no pity for the girl.
Just because the same pretty much happened to me once upon a time and I chose it every single time.
She's the girl who chooses to entertain, to listen to let him back in.
I think it's no better whether it be 1 or 20, having your heartbroken several times no matter what the amount of people show's a bit of a pattern.
