It was my therapist who explained it to me nicoleflynn. He told me they can spot an individual that they can attack, they just develop a keen sense for it. I used to wonder "why" I was pursued or attracted them, well, I ran and was shy and so they pursued me. Yes, you are right, they are actually very insecure individuals.
