littlepiggy1 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I've noticed this behavior with a few people I've known (all women). They just can't seem to be single for any length of time. For example, I knew this one woman for about a year or so and during that time she was in and out of 3 different relationships. Maybe I just find this behavior odd, because I'm more single than not. But can anyone explain what drives this behavior?
JadeStar Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 IMO,Possibly they are in a continues search for something or a void they are trying to filll. Maybe they have a commitment type of phobia that leads them not be in one particular relationship for very long. It is hard to say for sure why people go in and out or bounce from one relationship to another. Theres probably some good reasons they have. Then again some people like playing the field so to speak and are not wanting to be in a relationship for a long peroid of time. Jade
quankanne Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 they're not secure in themselves, but must have an "other" to help define who they are. Instead of taking that alone time and learning to be happy in who they are, they search out for someone to do that for them. It's an insecurity thing ... and it grows as annoying as hell to encounter an otherwise intelligent person slipping into that role just because they don't want to have to do self-inventory or experience self-growth. How the hell are you going to attract "The One" if you can't even appeal to your own self?
monkey00 Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 i suppose you could call it, "exploring their options" like a monkey, until they get a hold of a new branch while swinging, they wont let go of the old. I call em 'bf upgrades' and perhaps some are just commitment phobes. and some just have plenty of emotional baggage....
