Incubus/Succubus relationships

Ever been in one where it seemed like you only got used for one thing and the more you had to be around it, the more the life was drained out of you? Yeah, Cancer ex was like that, she turned me on my own best friend and had him and I at each other's throats. Only for her to cheat on him, get with me and cheated on my ass too. I shoulda listened to him when he said "she ain't nothing but a succubus". So technically it was my fault for being pulled too far down the rabbit hole. But it was too great and too late for me to realize what she was before it happened. Worst heartbreak I had at the time, kicked the third party's ass and made him stay away. Ended up hurting her feelings too, but I didn't care at the end because she was even more guilty for being the one initiate cheating on me with that douche. And she did it right in front of my face. Didn't care I broke heart more than mine's for telling her the truth about herself and what she was. And don't regret it. Right now, I trust my instinct more than ever. That's what I feel keeps me out of those type of relationships.
But from anyone here, have you ever had to be in a relationship where you felt like you were at the knees of someone else, and no matter how much your friends told you, or you even noticed. You didn't break off till you saw it yourself?

You know, advice often times is pointless unless you're at a point where you can accept the truth. Hearing/knowing the truth and accepting the truth are very different things. Just look at any of the relationship threads in DXP. I think this is why majority of the people can't take the right decisions until it's too late and something has happened for them to be forced to accept the truth. But that's not a bad thing, because as you said you've learned from the experience. And that's what people should focus on, the fact that every experience good or bad teaches us something.

Well that's what life really is for me. Learn from my mistakes so I can forsee something and not let the past be repeated. But if I ever happen to run into a new situation, I might need a advice then lol.
