Can someone please teach me how to stay single?!
I made a promise to myself that I would remain single for the rest of the year.

Looking at your old posts it looks like you have been having relationship issues for some time. The latest one seems to have a lot of feelings for you but something was creating anxiety in him. Did you fight a lot? What are your expectations in men? How did your parents get along?

@Tastyfrzz My parents didn't get along, they fought all the time and eventually divorced when I was 7. Then she quickly remarried within the next year and the guy is kind of a misogynist. She worked, cleaned, took care of the children, all while wearing heels and red lipstick and he didn't work.
I think I've taken on my Mom's giving attitude in relationships and I forget to have higher expectations and to expect things from my partners. This leads to them not respecting me or taking advantage of me in some way. I think I took on the idea that it's better to feel loved (kept) than it is to love myself.

@Tastyfrzz Good point. I do think I tend to go with the "love bombers" over the people who are more reserved with showing their affection.
