Man's Love Life Seems Stuck in a Loop
Dear Abby | September 20th, 2025 | Letter 3 of 3
DEAR ABBY: I have lousy luck with women. I get involved with women who are slightly broken. Then I fix them and think we are growing a relationship, only for them to find the next love of their lives and push me into the friend zone. It is leaving me disappointed and emotionally exhausted. I'm a good person, capable of giving and accepting love, but it appears I'm only a stopgap. It's making me want to just be alone. Advice? -- MR. FIX-IT IN ILLINOIS.
DEAR MR. FIX-IT: There is nothing wrong with being alone. In fact, it can be healthy. You need to break a destructive pattern that you may have established. It is important that you get over the impulse to rescue women who have been unlucky in love and whose self-esteem is weak. Concentrate instead on finding someone who feels good about herself without your help, and you may have better luck.
