Classic Mistake #2: I’m the exception.
I’ve seen far too many intelligent women get involved with a guy with a horrible romantic history who then goes on to cement the pattern with them. Why? Because they thought they would be the “exception.” I’ve heard: “We were such good friends, I thought he’d never pull that on me.” I’ve heard: “He cheated on his wife, but that was 10 years ago.” I’ve heard: “He broke off two engagements, but this time he says he’s really ready and has met the right person.” Not that you’re definitely NOT the exception — hey, maybe you are — but chances are, you’re not. And why would you want to risk it anyway?
