This is so true and can be seen two ways. Some people only see the negative, like the attracted one is using the person they are attracted to. And that CAN happen, like in a dependency way.

But it can be very positive. People who have been through a thing can help people going through that same thing in a way others may not be able to. This is why many counselors have been through trauma themselves…and went into that to help others.

The people who have been most helpful to me after losing close family members are those who went through it themselves and healed, or are healing in a healthy way.

It is important to note the difference in yourself and in those you attract.

A user will take and not give back. A true friend shares both ways and it is always about what is given, not what you take.

Yes thats true...thats why personal boundaries are very important. You can only help someone so long before it drains your energy. Saying no, I'm being there for myself, is something a lot of people need to do. True friends understand that and give you space, and vice versa. Being used is the one of the worst feelings.
 
Forgive yourself
For the times you have dissapointed yourself.
For the times you were in the wrong.
For the times you feel you weren't enought.
For the times you say things out of anger.
For the past mistakes you've make.
For the times you could have been more empathic.
For the lessons you learn a little to late.
For the times you allow others opinions to affect you.
For the times you allow people to manipulated and decieve you over and over.
Love yourself in your own imperfection which is perfect for you.
