I think it gave me an obsessive compulsive disorder. I can't walk into a public restroom now without checking the sign at least twice. Sometimes I walk into one that's completely empty and start to doubt myself. I hang there in indecision. I usually go back out and check again.

I can't even imagine how embarrassing that would be if I were sober at the time.

Hey, maybe I should be a restroom attendant here?

Where's the bartender? Hey Mayor we have an idiot that can't find the right restroom without a drink! Can you help her out? While you're at it I'll have one of the cold ones that RIF never claimed.

Ok third idiot thing done just the other day, must of blocked it out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> Anyway, left work and wsa walking home and put my water bottle full of root beer in my work bag, I have to have a spill proof top because I work with a computer, well, the top it isnt spill proof if you leave the top open I noticed, but it was wet out and thought I splashed a puddle up the back of my legs, started getter wetter and wetter, hmmmm, I thought "how odd?" When I got home the back of my jacket, shirt, and pants were soaked, all I thought was wow, I got myself good. Took my bag off my shoulder and noticed it dripping root beer, the bottle was full and it was now empty, bummer, I just paid a dollar for it.....

Bye FF - I'm not ignoring your post, just thinking it over.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I read a book on relationship physcology and it basically said we are attracted to people like our parents, to try and undo past hurts. But the problem is, the sheer fact that they are LIKE our parents means two things. 1.) they are likely to repeat the hurt, because they will most likely respond the same way, and 2.) they are NOT responsible, and should not be, for healing your past hurts. Too much responsibility for a relationship, especially if it is happening subconsciously.

So....

How does one win that battle????

I read that too.

It sounds initially totally wacko and weird, but I think its true, and if you look into things in your past Rs you can sort of see it happening (or maybe in other people's Rs - its easier to see than in your own).

But its not really that helpful to know, since mostly this is all going on subconciously, and unless you're going to dump your S and start all over again, this time determined NOT to pick someone also based on your subconscious need to right your childhood wrongs....

I guess what I'm saying is, for me I think its better to stick to the day to day reactions that I CAN fix and keep this stuff as kind of interesting background info. But yes, keep in mind not to ask too much of my H - he is not responsible for my self-esteem, for example.
