This is why you keep going back to the same toxic relationship
If you want to stop falling back into bed with your ex, break the pattern by empowering yourself with compassion and understanding.

Our partners can operate as powerful magnets in our lives, pulling us inward and onward to unforeseen places. When we select toxic people to fill these companion roles, however, they can inflict a lot of damage and prevent us from realizing our ultimate fulfillment and purpose. These same toxic partners have a tragic way of pulling us back — time and time again — despite our best intentions.
We have to overcome this compulsive need to return to the same old places by overcoming the insecurities and misunderstandings that bring us back to toxic relationships. This occurs by cultivating understanding, acceptance and the ability to reshape and re-process the intense thoughts and emotions you might be dealing with. We aren’t defined by our relationships, but our lives can be bolstered by them. Build better partnerships by learning how to let go of the bad ones once and for all.
