Repeat Offenders

We've all done it. Gone back for more. Maybe you didn't hurt your ex enough the first time around, or maybe the sex was just too good. Either way, you knew you shouldn't but you still went back and now it's over, again, and it feels even worse than the first time.
I've been an addict of this type of behaviour. I'd dump the guy, remain "friends", and then he'd ask me back after a few months had passed. I'd go "talk" with him about our future, we'd end up in bed, and then all sorts of unpleasantness would occur.
If only you could just learn the lesson the first time around you'd save yourself hours of contemplation, sleepless nights, and bad poetry.
So why do we do it? Or better yet, more to my point, why do I do it?
Why do I always go back when I was the one that ended it in the first place?
A friend told me that ex's are ex's for a reason and they should remain that way and while I agree with her, I always keep going back for more.
Am I a masochist? Do I feel for the underdogs and *honesty* losers that come my way? Or am I simply too thick skulled to say goodbye the first time around?

I think it's because you have abandonment issues and have a serious problem with being alone -Which is what I said to you almost two years ago, but what the fuck do I know.

You're not alone, we all do it. I've been a repeat offender too many time to count.

like i said on another comment tab.

sex's just a pastime. it's not a solution. we all hate to be lonely and we all know what NOT to do but wtf we do it anyway.

because we're only human.

welcome to the family.
