A question...

Why is it that the people that are the most toxic to us are the people that we long to be with the most?

Lol, good question.
I'm speechless 'cause I wonder the same thing once in a while, but I'm gonna try my best to answer, it may not make sense haha.
But I think, that since we want to be with them sooo much, we tend to overlook things they do that hurt us, and we become dependent on them for our own happiness. Thus, we feel that we need them to be happy. So we want to be with them even more, and the cycle continues.
Now what makes us want to be with them soo much in the first place is another question.......For me, it's usually because even with all the hurt, when I look at them they still shine like gold! I see their potential to be the best they can be, so I believe in them and put my faith in them.
Maybe someone else can help answer this question?

I believe this people are in our life to make us a better person....They are challenges and we have to learn how to deal with them....
If every single person in our life be nice and sweet to us, then we would never appreciate their company even....we would never understand between good and bad even!
Yes, I do believe these people are there in our life to challenge us and make us tougher and stronger....

This issue of toxic people and relationships is something I think about and worry about a lot... Because I'm worried that I'm the toxic person... And it's interesting, because I know my boyfriend sees potential in me, and I know I keep hurting him (not on purpose, but simply cause I'm too wrapped up in myself and my own issues at the moment). At the same time, I know his happiness isn't dependent on me.

Interesting one line question that simply brings more questions than answers to the surface... I'm interested in what others have to say on the subject.

Chaos loves Chaos... and while we may not like it we know how to survive in it.

Wow... this is deep.
It's kinda like "misery loves company"...
Thanks for the reminder!
