I did something similar as a kid, constantly maladaptively daydreamed about a knight in shining armor saving me from my crappy childhood. As a teen I got into toxic relationships where I felt isolated, it was us against the world but in the worst way. As a young adult I ran through a string of men who thought they could fix me. I was so dissociated that I couldnt experience any pain/pleasure from sex, to the point that there were times where I would be curled up in a ball numb afterwards

Eventually I did the whole therapy thing and tried to work through some of my issues. I stopped people pleasing so hard. I think I still give off "please rescue me please fix me" vibes but they attract less people that try to take advantage of me this time around at least
