He asked me to marry him. I said no. That night he brought home a dog to protect me while he was gone.

I struggle to see people's intent. If they mean well and it just comes out all wrong, it's much easier to forgive. There's always those times too, when someone is hurting and they lash out from the pain they are feeling. I can forgive that too, with a little time. What really bothers me is people with the split personalities. Those that are as meek as a lamb one moment, then for no apparent reason, freak out and cause intentional pain. They go from easy going to control freak in a matter of seconds. It's shocking to see it happen because this isn't the person you care about; this is a monster.

After they have completely destroyed your self worth they come back meek and mild once again with outrageous gifts and favors. As the shock wears off they ask why you (the victim) are acting so funny. That individual, be it male or female, is impossible for me to accept.

More than a couple of breakups were because we had differing views of what a monogamous relationship is. Apparently I'm wrong in believing both parties don't date others.

Face it, I have a bad picker.

I'm guessing most of my break ups could be simplified to : I was really unhappy, and every thing I tried to fix it didn't work...
