Anita,

Red flags are easy to spot.  The problem is walking away and staying away.  I was being burned and I kept going back to the fire.  I would keep getting burned and go back for More like an addiction.

How do I not allow a man to walk all over me? This question used to be simple now not so much.  Is it habit? I know I deserve more but I do not have the ability to walk away or tell a man to stop these behaviors. It’s like my brain turns off.

I’m afraid.  I don’t have anyone to go for real advice.  My best friend at work is a 26 year married guy named Ben who acts like his 55.  I’m asking my mother to help me pay for counseling. I’m calling Monday.  I worry counseling will not help my brain.
