      i have always had a hard time with relationships, i,ve seem to always pick someone to take care of them, while my needs are not being met, i,m so afraid, my partner, whoever i,m with won,t accept me for my mental illness, or my health issues, as why i,m so alone, but i look back at my past relationships, and try to get something out of it, like why did it fail? and what can i learn from, it so i can learn to take my time, and have BETTER ONES!
