All I Know of Love Is Pain

A personal story in the experience: I Want to Be Loved
I f someone genuinely cares for me, I am 100% NOT attracted to them.  All I've ever known of love is rejection and hurt my whole life so my psychology dictates that I see abusive relationships as normal ---- and I fall madly in love with men who consistently devalue me.  I wish I was a normal person with a normal childhood following a normal life path with a decent job and a husband and a family.  Instead I am a tortured artist oscillating between desperate/vulnerable and angry/defensive, and I am ready to give up on love.  Sigh.
