The reason why we get the same partners is not because people are the same, but because we pull the dark shadow of past hurts over our eyes and we live the same all over again. We change the actors, but never the masks we give them in our play. Dragos Bratasanu
About This Quote

Of course, every one of us has a shadow side to him or her. We all have our negative traits. But it is how we see the world and ourselves that makes the difference. The reason why we get the same partners is not because people are the same, but because we pull the dark shadow of past hurts over our eyes and we live the same all over again.

We change the actors, but never the masks we give them in our play. It is important that we see that others have dark sides, too. Otherwise, we may never learn from our mistakes and may repeat them with someone else.
