Moth to a flame... please share your experiences

I'm trying to work some things out in my head about why I'm attracted to certain kinds of people. Can you give me some examples of times when you felt you were "a moth to a flame"?

- Why were you so attracted to this person?
- Did you find the same qualities in a healthier relationship or did you just stop wanting those things?
- Did you eventually work out your differences while keeping the attraction with the same person?
- Did you get what you needed in another way (from another relationship or activity or within yourself)?

Share your stories, please. I really need help.

This post was deleted for the following reason: this needs to be more of an "I have a problem you can help me solve" and a little less "share your stories" for it to be okay for AskMe -- jessamyn

 
It might help if you answered those questions yourself first.

A more personal answer tomorrow but the book "How To Break Your Addiction To A Person" will speak to the heart of your need.
