She connects it to my childhood and says that since my father was a dominant person whom never let me win an argument or ever said he was proud, I’m attracted to that energy. The weird part is I don’t know how to handle that energy because we communicate differently. I’m currently seeing someone that is dominant and challenges me and is hard to read.

On the other side of this I’m meeting another woman who is more like my mother but this time I’m more scared of not being able to give her the love she deserves. She almost is too nice to me. She’s shy and really pure. Weirdly enough I don’t find it challenging and attractive even though she’s objectively good looking.

On one side there’s a woman who is challenging yet does not give me comfort — On the other side there’s a woman who gives me comfort yet isn’t challenging.

I understand that I cannot base the entirety of my love life to my now divorced parents, every person is unique.

The questions that I have is if some of you can relate to this? If so have you been in a relationship with either what you fear — or have you learned to love someone that’s actually good to you but may not be as challenging?
