pattern?

it seems to start out like this.

i meet chap (or chap meets me, depending on how you want to look at it), we go hang out, chap falls headoverheels in love, i step in it, i resist, i get charmed then we get together -

all is rosy for a while, then somehow something happens along the way and we break up.


so many examples of that happening, even when i thought i've found the perfect person for me. i am wary.

i am so very wary now that i know i can be fooled. thus i resist.
