“I pursue guys that treat me badly because I secretly want to recreate Belle and Beast’s relationship. It’s probably because I wish, deep down, that one of them will be inspired by my kindness and love me so much that he’ll want to change.”
-_-; remembering all the anon messages I’ve got about how kids “can’t” pick up on messages concerning love and relationships in disney films. Oooh yes they do. Especially when such a message is repeated throughout many movies and tv show plotlines in pop culture.
I hope if this is real that the OP eventually comes to realize that they would probably be best off entering into a relationship with someone they’re compatible with, rather than viewing their femininity or kindness or whatever as a savior salve for violent and jerky (possibly but unlikely to be magical and secretly kind and loving on the inside) men. It’s not fair to the men either, really, to enter into relationships with them expecting them to change their personalities for you/because of you…
