Do you think relationships follow a pattern?

well it doesn't all follow pattern. if you are doing the same thing you did to your previous boyfriend then what happened to your ex has a chance of 50% that it will happen again. it's all about you girl. remember that. cause men just response to what girls want to do and need to do.. and if the guy is different then try to stay with what he wants and needs to do. it's just a matter of give and take relationship. if you give the sam you'll get the same and if you give differently, you'll get differently.

I think relationships do follow a pattern and I think people put themselves in those patterns. You are dating people of similarity for some odd reason. Do you still pine for the first boyfriend? What issues surrounding those relationships appeal to you? It just sesms that there is something you can't let go off, so you are trying to go through the motions again and find someone that is the same to try and get what you want/need/are missing. The only way you're going to stop it is to get out of yourself. You're the only one that can change it.

Bad relationships many times lead to more bad relationships. There are times you can get lucky and find a better relationship from a bad one. Many times you can't. Many times it is a bad thing. You have to understand the pattern you've gotten yourself into and break it. This bad pattern is not doing you any good mentally or physically.

I suggest you let time finds a good partner. It will come in a prefect timing in your life. Just dont rush it. Enjoy every moment of your life. Dont be bothered with your relationship, isntead enjoy everything you have.
