Chapter Six: What Type of Love Addict am I?

Over time I began to notice that I did not like most of the ways of this woman. Why do I  continue to do things to try and make her so happy when most of the time I feel worse than I did before doing anything for her? When I needed her, often time, she was not there for me. I never said no to her; whatever she needed or wanted from me, no matter how inconvenient it was for me, I did and gave it. She had no problem telling me no and that she could not or would not do something for me, no matter how desperate I was and how badly I said I needed it.  What is wrong with me? I began to notice that I was more of a friend to this woman than she would ever be to me and I didn’t like it very much when in reality, I was so addicted to validation, until I thought that the more I did for her, the more she will validate me. When she did not validate me, I felt let down, disappointed, for lack of better
phrase, needy. So wait a minute, are you sure I have a friend?
