What was I thinking????? (20)
PortieaKonstanz, Baden-Wuerttemberg Germany93 Threads 11 Polls 4,000 PostsWhen I look back on several of my past relationships, I can find no explanation for why I got involved with those people--I understand the initial attraction, but why I stayed with them for so long...all I can think is, what was I thinking? Does this happen to others? I've heard some of the 'formerly married' say this type of thing. How does this happen and what can be done to avoid it?

I dont look back either..why waste precious time in doing that..i just learn from where i went wrong and go from there...------ This thread is Archived ------
before, i had no sense of "wasting time" like i do now...
I think the "what was i thinking" moment could accidentaly happen in future.
An objective analise of "what was i thinking" is recommended
otherwise you will be wondering all your life

I think when we look back on our past relationships we focus on the last encounter, the breaking up or moving on due to what ever reason.
Unless your married for life, all relationships will have an end point, some amicable and some not.
I think the key is not to get hung up on the negatives, but treat each relationship as a learning experience, focus on the things that worked, and have no regrets.

It has definitely happened to me. I'm not sure how it happens or even if it can be stopped.
What's worse to me is letting someone slip away...

I look back and wonder what I saw in them in the first place, secondly i wonder why I gave them even the time of day. Thirdly I think I was so out of their leagues ------ This thread is Archived ------

I'm guessing the general solution to that conundrum would be to do *a lot* of thinking about the kind of person you want to be involved with - that is, a lot of thinking about who you are as a person and what you want out of life.
I've been considering doing that myself at some point, provided I can't hire someone to do it for me.
