You are blaming yourself, and others, for "manifesting" these situations, when in reality these situations are beyond our control and our influence.
We do not influence other people to screw up our lives. To think so is practically screaming "victim blaming". It's a slap in the face to survivors of traumatic events and people living in poverty or suffering domestic abuse. You are blaming them for a subconscious decision which most likely never even crpssed their minds in their entire lives. And that is what annoys me.
You're essentially telling them they asked for it, and I refuse to let anyone think it's okay to have that mindframe. It's not.

Lilyth Von Gore - I can think of many examples in my life that had positive outcomes. Thinking outside of the victimization scenario is why I answered the way I did.
