A revelation...um... again.

Okay, I'm a handsome, college educated professional with a successful job that I actually went to college for. I have a healthy relationship with my family and I know how to treat the woman I'm with and most importantly I'm extremely low maintenance with a above average self esteem (hello ladies ;) )

This is everything a woman could ever hope for isn't it?
WRONG. Not too long ago I discovered that a girl I dated awhile back found all these traits repulsive. Yeah, I was a little surprised, but after seeing who she is with now and what traits she DID find attractive, I took it as quite a compliment. I think it's quite funny to be honest. It reminds me what a friend of mine said a long time ago concerning my luck with women: "Only you would pick the ONE psycho bitch in a stadium full of normal women."

I'm not saying that this girl is a psycho or a bitch for that matter, but my friend did bring up a very good point: It Seems like I instinctively pick women with "issues" and every time I pick a normal woman, they end up moving out of the state or country.
I think some gypsy broad put a curse on me.

All the more reason to remain retired from the dating world until I can solve this little dilemma.

  1. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume I was one of those girlfriends that moved out of state.
    But yeah you do seem to attract some pretty nutty chicks. ^_^

  2. Do you maybe pick the women with issues because you want to fix them? Maybe you have some kind of great characteristic that "crazy" women find fascinating or good or they feed off of, while the normal just aren't interested in.

    Eh, I'm a girl, men are the same way in my opinion. Good luck!

    I think the term you're looking for is co-dependency.
    Unlike co-dependents, I don't actively seek out these "damaged" women so that I can fix them. Usually the weird traits don't appear until I'm well into the relationship. Of course I instinctively want to help them if I think they're worth it, but I don't take it to the point to where it becomes compulsive and self destructive.
    I also don't base my entire self worth on my ability to solve other people's problems. This is what a co-dependent does and that's just not me. I have no interest in spending the rest of my life babysitting some basket case.

    I don't know if I do have a "characteristic" that attracts the crazy women feed off of, but I wish they eat somewhere else! lol!

    Sorry to hear about your bad luck with men... maybe you give off some kind of phermone. I think this warrants study!

  4. Ah yes codependents are a fucked up lot and I personally would never get involved with one, but they do serve a purpose because most healthcare workers including docs, therapists, nurses, etc are cds.
    If I'm laid up in a hospital I wouldn't give a damn if my nurse or doc is cd or not as long as they patch me up so I can leave.
