I keep attracting the same type of guy in relationships, at first it's great but then it always breaks down. The guys I attract aren't bad towards me, they just have a personality that I love at the start then slowly start to really go off.

How can I break this cycle? Or is this just always going to be the way it is?

Hi Eleny, when you say "..then slowly start to really go off," what do you mean? Do you mean they change? Or you become un-attracted to them? I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean the relationship goes sour and you break up?

First thought. In breaking the cycle of attracting the same kind of person, and being attracted to the same kind of person...maybe try dating someone a little different from your standard preferred type. Obviously don't date someone who seems dangerous or unhealthy. But just maybe different from who you normally go for.

Second thought. I am a big fan of reflection when it comes to looking at why something didn't work out. It sounds like you're doing that. I try to look at what I learned about myself, about relationships, what I want / don't want in my next relationship. And then let it go. You ask if its going to be like this forever, where you're in the same cycle with different guys. I hope not for you, and I think you hope not as well. Be kind to yourself. You are trying to figure it out. Good for you.
