I will never, never, NEVER get too close to someone again. It hurts too much when people leave me. And they always leave me cuz somehow I push them away.
I'm so tired of doing this. But I dont know how to stop.

How do I stop????

Welcome to PC. I'm sorry you've been hurt by lost relationships ((I'mNotReal)). I know the feeling of not wanting to risk being hurt again. Are you in therapy because you could bounce your feelings off the therapist rather than blurting out your feelings prematurely to your partner.

You can also look up 'fighting fairly' websites and you both could use those techniques to communicate better. Thinking before you talk and ask yourself the question first helps, as well as wondering if this will matter in 10 yrs. You can also look at the patterns you follow and learn from those mistakes. We all experience pain in relationships at some time in our lives. I hope it gets better for you.

I'mNotReal, I like LynnP's suggestion

I can't really advice much, but I use to always say this: "Never say never for you never really know" I know it is a contradiction at the end, but we as humans don't know everything, we don't know the future.

WE can work on ourselves in the present to stop the things that we do not like about ourselves or that we do, tough work I know but still keep trying.

I am with you on this pain thing, the bad part is, I hate to be alone, I don't like me very much, so I stay in a constant relationship, moving from one woman to another. And I know that it is my behavior that pushes them away. It is a vicious cycle.

Hope you get past this soon,

I know that too! I know it's my behavior that pushes them away. But I dont do anything bad. I'm not mean, I dont take my anger out on them. I take it out on me. I am nice. I would do anything to support them but they dont support me that much. What? I love them too much??!! grrrrrrrrrrrr
