You must. I asked to be your friend and I'm totally certifiable.

My second wife is bipolar, as is my middle daughter. The daughter recognizes it and stays on her meds.

It sounds to me like you're just too darned open-hearted!
I've noticed this phenomenon over the years. Friendly, warm, open, trusting people tend to attract the freaks, the "users", the "takers", the basically unloved people in the world.
Perhaps this is because no one else would give these kinds of people the time of day! Once they find someone who is not instantly "closed off" to them, they grab hold and won't let go until they're forced to.
I know it's a hard thing to deal with. I was like that. Well, I still am, but I've learned how to immediately spot the warning signs that someone isn't stable and I back off as fast as I can!
It's just a matter of learning how to read people. You'll learn. Unfortunately, experience is the best teacher.
I wish you luck!

Yeah, I've known a few like that. Sometimes, you just can't see it coming! It's a hard thing to have to do: decide whether or not to befriend someone who's "not quite right". You might think that all they need is a friend; someone who cares. But that's not usually the case, sad to say.
You'd think that, after losing friend after friend because of their psychotic ways, they'd get professional help! I know I would!

i think i sense them i just hope for the best and get screwed every time.. what i dont get is that they just turn on me and go all psycho.. but then i guess if they are psychos no one goes near there is a reason lol.. you would think if some one was constantly rejected and like alone they wouldnt turn on people when they got friends but ugh psychos

I'm going to send this to my husband, Vladilyich1. He seems to have the same problem you do. I'm one of the few non-crazy people he's attracted in his entire lifetime. haha I've had to do some amazing things in order to protect him from the crazies that seem to flock around him like moths to a flame. LOL

Dunno..have you dressed provocative? That tends to attract stalkers. I know it is freaking but some of them are so desperate they gape at fully covered women too. Remember to wear a coat and keep a weapon like a tiny pocket knife or something when you're out alone. Pepper spray too. You never know what kind of weirdos are around..
