love and hate relationships!

"Those low in self-esteem are chronically concerned about whether or not their close relationship partners will or will not accept them," Clark said. "In good times, those low in self-esteem tend to idealize partners, rendering those partners safe for approach and likely to reflect positively upon them. At the first sign of a partner not being perfect, however, they switch to focusing on all possible negatives about the partner so as to justify withdrawing from that partner and not risking vulnerability."






so true...we are afraid to get close to someone and yet we cannot afford to lose them..


we are afraid of getting hurt yet we are not afraid to give ourselves to someone.. why cant we think before we do something and give someone a chance to hurt us. Has this world made us so hard and so low in self-esteem that we are ready to jump into a situation which is most likely to hurt us !
