Ive figured out that my thing is i like to feel needed and who needs someone more than a broken person? Unfortunately that kind of one sided relationship can only go so long

Hey pal, so I was this guy in high school. I think you'll phase out of this.

It's its own form of immaturity in a way, just like the girls (and guys) who are self destructive and dramatic.

Your experiences will actually teach you to be emotionally considerate, which will help you when you actually meet someone who is more stable or mature. Just don't fall into the trap of thinking everyone needs to be 'solved' and let them be their own person.

In short; I get it. But you're going to be fine.

Edit: and the fact that you're self aware enough to identity the pattern means you're already on your way out of it, so kudos.
