Is there a way to break this cycle or am I just doomed?

Question - (30 November 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 30 November 2008)
A male United States age 41-50, *uperDan writes:

Why is it that the only women I seem to attract are the ones whose lives are a broken down mess, and who are needy, neurotic, insecure know-it-alls, who like me as long as I do what they wish, but the minute I think for myself or want to do something that doesn't involve them, they suddenly turn against me and make me feel small in the process?

I grew up in a family chock full of authority figures and people who wanted me to depend on them, and made me feel weak on a regular basis. So I fear it's because I attract this type of personality in a girl as well.

Is there any way to break this cycle or am I just doomed?

Asked Angel agony auntNo you are certainly not dommed. But where are you meeting these 'Ladies'.

You can only change what you expect and chosse to except in any relationship.

Good luck and i really hope this helps.
