You know how they say you usually either marry someone a lot like your opposite-gender parent, or someone to the other extreme? Well what if you did neither, and married someone much like your SAME-gender parent?? Does that mean anything??
I told T a few months ago that "I think I married my mom!!" And he said, "well, that would be unusual."

H is over a decade older than me, which fits the type of men I always dated, but he acts much more like my mom did (in his weaknesses) than my father.
He's never cold and distant like my father, but is at times critical and minimizing, like mom almost always is. I sometimes find myself reacting internally to him as I do to her - defensive and avoidant.
.
Anyone else have this situation??
