I used to be like this as a kid. I'd get bullied at school, then the same kid would want to hang out, which made me feel better, then the next day it was back to the abuse, but I'd still want them to like me and want to hang out. It was a vicious cycle for years. Thankfully, I lost my tolerance for it before I reached adulthood. Unfortunately, I went to the other extreme, which was to be 10x the asshole back, which is still proving to be a difficult habit to shake, so don't go that route.

If they keep causing grief, it's honestly not worth bringing them back into your life for more. It's tough, but sometimes you need to stand up for yourself and say "You're not going to treat me like that because I don't need it, want it, or deserve it, so get lost." You can do it. Good luck!
