Do you attract crazy people?

Freindships, Relationships, work, etc. Hows that working out for ya? Has it gotten to the point where you are wondering where you keep fucking up or if there is simply more quantity than quality? Just trying to make some sense here..

Crazy people generally need attention. I sort out all the crazies by ignoring most of my friends in regards to birthdays and holidays. If they cannot deal with casually getting together whenevs then we go our separate ways naturally anyway. I'm not a fan of drama.
Work crazies are easier, I just don't work with them again if I cannot deal.

i normally give pretty much all people the attention (unless i see bugged out shit right away) and when you do such thing with people who have issues, they - for some reason - think you really really like them when really, you tried to be a nice guy, do the right thing and simply didnt know they where crazy like that so one thing leads to another.

I cant complain too much though because now i am very consequent with shit like this but still, i wonder why people always think you wanna be their best friend or pipe them. trust me, you dont wanna pipe no crazy chicks, the magnitude of shitstorms you got coming is simply unpredictable.

You could be co-dependant. A lot of co-dependant people seek validation by being nice to people. And what do you know!, crazies are attention whores who latch on to people who give them attention. Then, the co-depentant develops a feeling of being taken advantage of and get pissed.

Check out this book. Now, the author is a full blown crazy himself, and may or may not have an motive with this book. So take some of it with a grain of salt. But still, there is some great info for the layperson in there. The author was also featured in a documentary called I Psychopath. Also worth checking out on youtube.
Even just read the reviews on Amazon.

But to answer your question, yes. Certain personalities absoutely do attract others.

It's also worth noting that if you hang in circles of mostly artists and creative types, you may just have to deal with it. There is a school of thought which says that artists need to create drama in their lives to fuel creativity. While I don't agree with blanket statements, sometimes the shoe fits. Not that there is anythng wrong with that, but it helps to be aware of when you might start to get roped into it.

I use to attract crazies. Now I can spot them a mile away and steer clear. Lesson learned.

yeah, dating crazy people can be real fun for a minute, but that wears off when you have to deal on a day to day. i think squeegee put it best.

I ate paint this morning, started a fire in the kitchen sink, rubbed cool whip in the carpet, crawled around on the roof this afternoon to see the sunrise.
Saw a dragon in the bathtub, talked to it for a few hours, it ate a baby so I flushed it down the toilet.
Wanna be friends?
