The woman on the couch looks up at me miserably, tears in her eyes, as she tells me about her most recent bad relationship. ?I?m sick of choosing guys who aren?t there for me. They seem great, they want me, they tell me how terrific I am, then either they have an affair, or turn on me once we are involved, getting that cold look in their eyes. I can see they don?t care after all. I can?t stand this. Why do I do this over and over??
