Our "Wendy" is, at first mesmerized by him and his charms. But, after a while, she begins to feel like his mother and or playmate, instead of being in a healthy/equal adult relationship. She KNOWS this relationship will probably never change (she gives 90% and he gives 10%) but she rationalizes that , "it could be worse". She stays (even though not happy or fulfilled) because she is afraid that if she leaves , she will be lonely and all alone (she dosen't realize that she already is). In this very easy, metaphorical presentation and reading, one will discover why these relationships exist for generations and how to identify past patterns and present dynamics.
