Do you have some advice?
I have a problem entering into relationships with people who ignore what I have to say. My last few relationships have been with women that have their own agenda. My voice in what I have to say is constantly drowned out and I find myself in an uncomfortable situation. An example of what is bothering me would be telling the woman I am with that I am uncomfortable around clowns and for some reason she wants me to accompany her to a clown themed restaurant. I would really appreciate if you had some advice to help me avoid finding myself in these types of relationships in the future. I am looking for multiple answers to this question.

Are you communicating these things directly? Sometimes you just have to be upfront and stern. If someone told me they were uncomfortable with clowns, but played it off like it was no big deal I wouldn't give a second thought about it. Just something funny. Maybe you're not communicating with these women very well, or you just keep finding yourself with the wrong lady.

Sounds like you come off as passive and/or meek. If someone has an agenda that's different from yours, you're quite free to say, No thanks, that doesn't interest me. If you can't do that, well, maybe it's not the women who are the issue. Since nature abhors a vacuum, if you come off as indecisive or weak, then someone will naturally make a decision or be "strong" for you.

You're drawn to women who keep using this technique. Time to take a good look at what's drawing you TO them.
