Recently, I've been more taken up with the question of trying to work out why I had been attracted to XH (and probably people like him) in the past. Not any more though, those sorts of character traits really, really put me off someone, big style. But yes, why was I attracted to that? What was I looking for? Was it something that was missing in me? What questions was I trying to find the answer to? What did he give me that I thought was missing in myself?
Totally understand that feeling. I have bouts of that on occasion. Mine is more along the lines of "what the h3ll was I thinking?????"
