..isnt it safe to say that YOU may be the problem?

There's too many variables to answer this...
What's your definition of a "failed" relationship?

in the space of how much time?

Are you seriously asking this?? There are way too many variables...

Haha, such an assumption would be boldly retarded. I would say if all the people/breakups issues were identical, then you could surmise this. Otherwise chalk it up to learning...click to expand

You think most people settle down after two serious relationships and the last one lasts forever?

We can't help who we are attracted to. WTF?
And what about people who are attracted to us? It should never be controlled, it's pretty organic in it's own.
I can only see a need for intervention if there is abuse and stuff...
Otherwise, keep trying until it works out. Even if it takes 100 people, go through them all.

doesn't matter..but if you constantly hop in and out of relationships i'd think that person definetly has an issue
Sure it matters. If you have had 3 failed relationship over the last 10 years or if you have had 3 failed relationships over the last year.

That's a dumb thing to say.
Not counting my marriage, here's a rundown of my relationships since I was 25.
32 years old...Dated and got a place with a GF. She took the rent money and spent it on who knows what, but told me that the rent was paid. We got evicted because the rent hadn't been paid in 3 months. That lasted about a year. OVER!
30 years old, dated a girl who disappeared twice. She broke up with me, THEN tells me that she cheated on me, THEN stalks me. Restraining order. This lasted about 6 months. OVER!
29 years old...dated a girl who had just gotten out of a relationship that she wasn't over yet, but didn't realize it at the time. I ended it, but we still talk on Facebook from time to time. This lasted about 6 months.
27 years old, dated a girl who was clearly a rebound from my first marriage. She wasn't very bright, and I got bored, so I left her. Ok, I should have never dated this girl, so I guess I was the problem in this one. It lasted about 4 months.
25, I dated and married a gorgeous woman. A 9.5 on a scale of 1-10. Little did I know, she had a drug problem and hid it from me for 2 years. She went psycho on me, and ran me over with her car. Strangely, about a month later, I took her back...still unaware of the drugs. 3 months after that, she left me for a drug dealer. That is when I found out about the drugs.
So, with the exception of the rebound, how am I the problem?

Oh my gosh Damian @your last paragraph. Seriously, how old are you? I did not mean it literally to be "ran through all them other guys".
I meant in love, you always gotta keep trying.
There are always some issues to work on, and sometimes it's not neccessarily about you or them even. Sometimes there are other circumstances at play, such as bad timing. It doesn't mean that the person is bad or that there is anything wrong with you...but it still may not work, ya know?

if you(not saying YOU personally) always attract dudes that end up being losers, then it must be something about you that leads these dudes to think they can have/be with you
for instance, my sister, throughout her whole life only dealt with "good guys",they always treated her with respect & never was violent with her..maybe knowing tha she had a father & 2 brothers around that would stomp the living shit out of'em could've had something to do with it, but still,she never had issues with guys
now if you need to go thru 100 dudes to find the one,more then likely that "one" is probably some lame,sucker for love type that you choose to settle for after years of being ran thru by all them other guysclick to expand

seems like you like to save women that don't deserve to be saved..a "captain save-a-hoe" is what we call your kind (no offense)
those women you dealt with would be great to date & fool around with from time to time, but you can't build with those types of women, they only know how to destruct(i.e=self destruction)click to expand

Lol u said a whole lot of nothing. Good for ur Sis but what's ya point?

I had a step father and 3 brothers and still attracted some losers....and I'm not a loser. Do u have anything to back your theory up?click to expand

Posted by VirgoMerlot
What gives you that assumption? I didn't think there was anything wrong with these women when I met them. They weren't crying for help.

Posted by bkbella86
^^^^^^ exactly my point! some people dont show thier true colors or intentions for a while....is that our fault too?

Posted by bkbella86
you dont know michelles history...she could have been a whore for all you know....and every guy who looks like chief keef isnt a bad guy and every dude who looks like barack isnt a good one...none of the guys I dated look like chief keef or speak like him...doesnt mean they werent players with hidden intentions.

Posted by BrooksSamsonite
it depends imho.
diviner just read my bazi on the chinese board and he mentioned that i attract smart and beautiful ladies and have and do not need to do much. he also mentioned that right now i have yet to find someone. both are true. however i also know my bazi as 2 other people have read it for me and i know that "drought" even if i was in relationships lasted me a decade from 19-29. so it ends this year thankfully. now other people can have that in their charts as well. also other people can go thru transits where they are attractive to the opposite sex. it's called peach blossom luck. it lasts also a decade. i had it from 0-9 and will have it again when i'm 39-49.

true i don't know her history, but to go from a whore to the presidents wife is kinda extreme, just like the example i gave regarding her & chief keef
and im not basing everything just on how a person look, its their character and how a person act..like the old saying goes,actions speak louder then words, and most of the best players specialize in having good wordplay, so maybe you got swept off your feet by that,idkclick to expand

yeah it's interesting. it can predict divorce. in western u have to get divorced and then look back at transits lulz! at least iv never seen anyone accurately predict it tho it's possible. western astro transit predictions have been hit or miss for me. i know u follow 2 things jupiter and saturn. luck and the lessons...

Posted by bkbella86
but you dont know michelles, barack or chief keefs character and your making assumptions on who they might be based on their looks or image am i wrong?

for someone whose into astrology dont you think you should look a lil further?click to expand

I'd say, its just we were dating the WRONG SIGN.

im good at paying attention to how a person acts..their life style , the things they like/don't like to do,what goals do they have,etc..all this plays a major part for gf status imo..if you're the type that falls head over heels for a chick because she looks good, and/or is a freak in bed, then you're gonna have a ruff life, i guarantee it..because thats what a lot of us men really want 1st in foremost anyway,lol..and im not knocking that, i just think when its time to take it to the NEXT LEVEL(relationship status), you gotta look at her other positives/negatives and decide if she's truly worth it..same goes for womenclick to expand

no,but i've been with my current gf for 8 yrs straight, and on & off since 2001

Posted by bkbella86
and before that?
one could say you have an issue as well or were you including yourself as well in this thread?
if you have been on and off for 8 years is it you or your girl that has the issue?

Now, you're assuming that I only go for only one type of woman. I don't. Each of these women were different signs, different personalities, liked different music, etc. Face it. You're WRONG!

different women,yes, but still,the same results..1 was a stalker that cheated on you when she felt like it, and the other took your rent money..it must be something about you to make these women think they can treat you like that,because trust me, every man doesn't go thru that..honestly,i think you tend to get pussy whipped & these women see that and take advantage of youclick to expand

we both rather take it slow..hell,my father waited seven years before he married my mother, and they've been together now for at least 40 years..if she(my gf) really wanted to get married, we would've been broken up by now,obviously..we're both happy and thats all that matters
hopefully one day you'll be able to find that life partner you want instead of losers all the time thou..even thou you're pushing 30, its still hope for you
