Reasons Why You Only Like Guys Who Don't Like You
We can almost say that everyone has experienced this, but there is an explanation!
1. You are projecting whatever is true
Projection works as a way of describing the ways in which we tend to see things in another person that don't really apply to them. Therefore, it is much easier to admire someone from a distance, as it is more difficult to visualize the “flaws” that would be highlighted in daily life.
2. Unconsciously likes the drama
Some people are drawn to the persecution, drama, and pain of unrequited love. It is really true! In these cases, it is as if the fantasy were more important than the actual fulfillment of love.
3. Are afraid of intimacy
Some people tend to avoid real love as a form of protection, so they end up recklessly pulling away in order not to get hurt. Therefore, chasing after someone who does not fully correspond to one's feelings is a way of maintaining the feeling of being passionate without all the risk, thus satisfying your own desire for connection.
4. is stuck in the past
Sometimes you are attached to your past and avoid moving forward at all costs. In short, such people tend to be interested in a situation involving unrequited love, thus savoring the benefits of falling in love without ending up completely swept away by it.
