Should victims ever have to take some responsibility?
I think about this a lot and I’m sure that many other people do as well although they may not admit it. When you constantly see some people in bad situations where they’re taken advantage of, do you sometimes think it’s their fault a little bit too?
If you keep making the same mistake over and over again then maybe it’s something that you’re doing. The abuse is not your fault but it could have been avoided if they’d learned from the past.
Some people are drawn to making the exact same mistakes constantly like a moth to a flame.
How many times are you allowed to make the same mistake?
Before you have to hold your hands up and say “I am part of the problem.”
Maybe you’re not good at reading people so you should think twice or get advice before you make a decision about someone new in your life.
Some people are so gullible that I do believe they need a good person to help them not get taken advantage of.
When you have a bad experience with a certain type of person, normally when you meet another person like them the alarm bells ring. You see the red flags and so you’re on guard.
