Have you attributed your sequence of tense relationships solely to unlucky love, or is it possible that the issue lies in the type of men you tend to choose? If you observe any of these indicators, it may be time to break free from a harmful cycle of boyfriends.

1. All Your Exes Hurt You

If your past relationships have come to an end due to your ex-partners being disrespectful, unappreciative, or manipulative towards you, then it's an indication that you have been consistently attracted to toxic men. It might be necessary to switch up your dating choices and start exploring healthier options.

2. Your Exes Are All Bad Boys

It's possible that you find bad boys appealing due to their daring nature and charisma, but if your past partners and the men you're interested in always conform to the bad boy archetype, then it could be an issue. Although bad boys may seem exciting in theory, they can cause significant stress in reality. Eventually, their behavior can become exceedingly frustrating. There's a reason why they're called "bad boys" - they tend to make poor boyfriends.

3. You Lose Your Mind And Your Sense Of Self When You're With Them

It appears that you tend to lose your sense of self in each relationship, and when they come to an end, you find yourself having to pick up the pieces of your life that were neglected. This pattern might be an indication that you consistently end up in unhealthy relationships that inhibit your personal growth, which is the opposite of what relationships are meant to do.

4. You're A Fixer

If you find yourself trying to "fix" your partners by encouraging them to seek rehab, commit to the relationship, or assist them with their unemployment, it could be a sign that the men you are choosing to date have significant issues. Consistently being drawn to partners with problems might indicate that you are ending up with toxic men.

5. You're Not Friends With Exes

If you don't maintain any friendships with your exes, unless you have deliberately set a rule against it to avoid being held back by the past, it may indicate that your past relationships ended on an unpleasant note due to toxicity.

6. You're Always Meeting The Same Guys

While being attracted to a specific type might initially appear to be a positive sign of knowing what you want, if that type consists of men who consistently treat you poorly, it's essential to take a break from dating and reflect on what you truly desire in a partner.

7. You Think Things Will Be Different

If you find yourself rationalizing or justifying red flags in a new relationship because you believe that this time, things will be different, it's crucial to consider whether you're genuinely being realistic or potentially fooling yourself. Ignoring warning signs that something may not be right could be detrimental to your wellbeing.

8. You're Selling Support

If you find yourself constantly providing support to your partners in relationships, but not receiving the same in return, it may indicate that you're consistently ending up in toxic situations. You might believe that you have to earn someone's love, but in reality, you should be loved for who you are, not for what you do. Toxic men may attempt to exploit your kindness.

9. You're Lonely Af

If you consistently feel alone in your relationships, it's not just due to a lack of support. Your partners might be emotionally distant, non-committal, or you might feel like you're the only one putting in effort. This situation can be incredibly frustrating and disheartening. If this pattern persists, it might be a good idea to take a break from relationships and focus on yourself instead.

10. You're Jealous Of Single Friends

Feeling nostalgic about being single is a common feeling that many people experience. However, if this feeling arises frequently, it might indicate that you're not in a fulfilling relationship, and the drawbacks of being in it outweigh the benefits.

11. You've Started Generalizing

If you've caught yourself making generalized statements like "You can't trust men" or "All men are cheats," it may indicate that you're disillusioned with love and relationships, likely due to negative dating experiences.

12. Nice Guys Bore You

If you find yourself more attracted to "bad boys" than the nice guys, it's possible that you have developed an addiction to drama due to dating toxic men. When you encounter a guy who treats you well and the relationship is peaceful, it may feel unfamiliar and uncomfortable to you, as you may not be accustomed to it.

13. You're Suspicious Af

If you tend to be suspicious of decent guys and expect them to have a hidden agenda, it's possible that you're viewing the dating game through the lens of your past experiences with toxic men.

14. You Fall For The Toxic Traps

If you find yourself drawn to a guy solely because he's extremely good-looking and charming, it might be worth questioning whether or not that's really what you need in a partner. Focusing on genuine qualities like honesty, loyalty, and commitment can lead to more fulfilling relationships.

15. Your Relationships Are More Stressful Than Fun

Although relationships are supposed to be enjoyable and fulfilling, you've had the opposite experience and find them incredibly stressful. You feel like you've come out of them feeling completely drained and worn out. This kind of experience might make you question whether relationships are worth the hassle.
