I can totally relate. As a young man, I was attracted to the cute girls, but the relationships never lasted long. I was always the nice, shy guy and they usually ended up leaving to better deal me with some hot bad guy. So, eventually , I looked for someone who would not leave and settle down with.
Never really, truly fell in love, just settled. Got married, had kids and so on. Funny how someone can pretend to be something they were not until they feel they have you trapped and become their real self. And then expect you to change to meet their needs.
That is when I had to find myself and love myself. I knew before I could find true love, this needed to happen.
It wasn't until I meet my wife that I fell in love, real love for the first time. I fell in love with her heart and mind before I even knew what she looked like. That is where her true beauty was.
And I was going somewhere with this, but got interrupted by my wife.

The Truth is Out There, Somewhere
