The story of my life...!

I have a story of making decisions very quickly about men. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching the highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to relationship for a long time (sometimes too far long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. Many times in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism.
