I would always seek what I was familiar with and new what was expected of me. I repeated many times abuse situations because I didn't know it wasn't normal. In therapy it was pointed out to me, I found it so hard to comprehend because I never realized there was another way.

I tend to respond in relationships with the behavior that will cause the least waves and fix the problems regardless of what I personally have to sacrifice. It is very hard for me to take anything from anyone.

I have not pursued any type of relationship other than friends for this reason. I don't trust my judgement or my ability to set boundaries and maintain them.
