Just like a bear, I'm extremely protective of those that I care for. The moment I find out that someone close to me is hurt, it's like I go into super drive and almost berserk even. I want them to be happy; I want the jerk that hurt them to feel immense pain and guilt; I want to take their pain and hate, so that they can smile and laugh. There's always a part of me that harbors animosity towards those that hurt my friends/family/etc.
I'm the worst person to talk about boyfriend problems with, especially when I used to hear about them always from really close friends. I never understood why they always made the same mistakes continuously through their boy choices, only to be hurt once again in the end. It's hard comforting someone who won't really listen to reason, especially if reasoning goes against how they feel with their heart. You can tell a girl over and over again about how a guy is no good for her, but she'll never see the negatives as blatantly as someone who is open-minded. I never wanted my friends to get hurt by their romantic interests, but they always would; each time I would think they would learn a lesson from a previous relationship, but it was a 70+% chance they wouldn't. So I quietly sat seething on double dates with my best friend and her always crappy boyfriends wondering how long it would last or how they would end up hurting her in the end. But my best friends always knew, just like I always knew, that I would always, always, be there for them and I would never tell them, "I told you so" even if I kinda always wanted to. =P
