hmmm. I've always held on to emotionally detrimental relationships for much longer than I should have. If you want to give a reason for it, it could fall under daddy/parental issues or it could just be that I'm far too sympathetic and want to keep giving people 'chances'. Emotional abuse doesn't really turn me on at all.. just turns me into a wreck.. and to be honest I'm more than capable of doing that all on my own, so I don't need anyone else to help me out in that way. I've always tended to go after things I can't have(or can't have at first), because that is fun and a turn on. It's a never ending challenge, and if I end up getting them, I often didn't want them anymore. It's like a game. So I suppose you could combine that with the emotionally harmful relationship issues.. and that might be why I've stuck around longer than I should've.. Because I've always thought it was something I could eventually win.. without thinking if I wanted it in the end?
It might be very different for a guy, though. My current boyshape has major mommy issues and digs a bit of abuse, but I'm not sure about whether it's an ongoing issue in his relationships. Maybe? His mom used to throw stuff at him, and he was the eldest a somewhat hectic family so really likes to create drama at times. I've always thought it due to feeling like he didn't get the attention he wanted as a kid, you know?
