've often wondered if we seem to 'attract' certain people. For example throughout my life I seem to 'attract' bullies and people who manipulate and control me? Am I sending out messages to people that I'm a soft touch? I'm far too sensitive, placid and easy-going. What am I doing wrong. I've closed down and do NOT want another relationship because I am frightened that this will repeat itself. It's as though I'm saying to people, hey I'm a doormat come and use and abuse me. There must be a way out of this ongoing pattern
