Dear Louise:

You wrote that you wonder if you have drawn these men to you. I don’t know if you did, but keeping a disrespectful man in your life is a bad, bad idea. The fact that you suffer from a chronic illness does not mean that you deserve disrespect. You deserve as much respect as any human on the face of this earth.

Whatever happens in your life, whatever your difficulties, once you notice it, do not accept disrespect and mistreatment into your life.
