Some guys can seriously harm your health. Although they don't want to fully love you, they also don't want to let you go.
The more you give, the less they value it, and when you decide enough is enough and to leave, that's when they'll be ready to respect you and love you.
Giving them a chance in the hopes that they have changed, you find out it was all a lie. You muster up the will to turn away once more, but when he shows up again and declares his love for you, you cave once more.
A man's rage and determination to win you back after you try to end the relationship is not evidence of love; it is merely a knee-jerk reaction.
It is evidence that a man understands you well enough to know how to defuse you for two weeks in order to hook you again if he love bombs you or makes feeble attempts to be nicer than usual.
A young youngster cries, "Take away a toy!" A man begs for the end of a convenient relationship. You should not automatically grant him his wishes just because he cries.
Instead of paying attention to what your partner keeps promising, try observing what his real behavior is showing you.
Many of you women have never experienced the affection of a true man. You are familiar with lust, excitement, passion, and the dread of abandonment. Recognize what love IS instead of chasing your idealized version of what it ought to be.
Love doesn't promise to behave properly after being exposed for his mistakes repeatedly.
Love is his doing the right thing right away because of a desire to avoid making a mistake.
Love is a grown man changing on his own because he can't picture life without you, not you telling him he needs to change so he can retain you.
