lol at the wounded things... you know i can admit i am a recovering fixer. so of course my past mates were a bit wounded in one way or another. i have grown out of that to an extent, and will be doing enough helping clients help themselves in my professional world, so i'd rather not be with a 'project'.
BUT having said all of that, i am attracted to men who have strengthened their character and are not afraid to be themselves, so i guess at times that may have a bit of an emo vibe. oddly enough though, my taste in women (i'm bi at the very least) is entirely different - i am not generally attracted to damaged females. |
That's really interesting, rei. My broke dreamer said to me oneday: "You want a man you can take care of spiritually and you want to be taken care of physically." I thought that was pretty insightful on his part. Having said that, part of the reason I am taking time out of social work is because I need a break from dealing with other people's problems. I'd like not to have to rescue anyone, but then maybe that's what I'm good at.
