I think I'm attracted to fucked up relationships because I was depressed for a very long time. I had trouble feeling anything at all... I was just numb and pessimistic. I couldn't even relate to the idea of a healthy relationship... it seemed ridiculously unrealistic to me. I didn't believe they could happen in real life. I'd never seen anything like it. It just seemed fake to me. A fucked-up relationship seemed more relatable... something I could see happening to me. I think part of it was just wanting the intensity of emotion you see in those kinds of abusive relationships... I couldn't feel anything, but I wanted to feel something. That was what appealed to me.

I'm not depressed anymore (mostly) but I still relate back to those feelings I had. I did go through a rather unhealthy relationship a while back and while I recognize it was bad and even at the time I knew it was bad... part of me wanted it, that intensity of feeling. He made me feel SOMETHING. I cried, really SOBBED for the first time since I was a little girl and it felt like a damn breaking. He treated me like crap but it was an amazing rush to be feeling all the feels again. It was miserable but it was intense and that was what I wanted.

So I guess tl;dr history of depression, intensity of feeling in fucked-up relationships is appealing to someone who's been emotionally numb for years.

*ETA if you want to die anyway, a serial killer doesn't seem like a bad option. Something to think about
