Why am I attracted to the dark side of life?

Why not call it an inquisitive yearn for knowledge in an area most people won't want to be involved in. I guess you can call that an attraction but maybe it is born in some people because we need them in the world. Not everyone can do what you are interested in doing. It takes a certain kind of person, who i believe is brave enough to face the things in life people fear. Death, the mind, religion.\nYou call it an attraction to the dark side of life but maybe you could reconsider and call your attraction a gift.

well, look up existentialism. they are usually afraid of the dark, have severe vices (heavy drinking, lots of women), ummm... live by the "you only live once" philosophy... hemmingway is a great example of it. \n\nif you can't find existentialism, look up transcendatalism, its the opposite.

I think because we have a true fear of violence and death and there is a tendency to be drawn to things that we fear.  Maybe to better understand it and maybe so that we can experience it outside of ourselves.  I also think that there are some really sick people out there and they thrive off of harm to others and want to do the harm themselves but do not want to deal with the consequences of those type of actions.

I see a problem.  You seem to be interested in things that the average person doesn't want to hear about.  And you seem to be inspired by some unknown force.  Welcome to the human race.\n\nThere is a mystical significance to shapes; physics states that.  Numbers and letters are shapes.  When you look at a hurricane on the whether forecast you'll notice it creates 6 over and over as in 666.  Perhaps the answer is in the word live, which when spelled backwards creates the word evil.  In the past tense it creates the word devil.  It could be that anything that lives is evil.  \n\nSo, you are of a different kind.  You see things that others can't because you look.  That's a difference right there; most people don't want to look, hear, or think, for fear of what they may find.  That is the state of society, it fears lossing it sins; which can be seen from the outside not from within it.  Elevations!\n\nEnjoy your analytical mind, sometimes it causes the deaf, dumb and blind to see.  However, don't hold anything true until you see it at least in your mind with the proper deducement.

If you slow down and take in all that is going on in the world around you, you will see goodness from heaven and evilness from hell.... \n\nTake a sunrise over the ocean in the morning, notice how many colors it takes to create such a gorgeous sight, that IS heavenly, or the smile on an innocent babies face, that too is heavenly...\n\nnow for the soldiers in Iraq and their families that situation is evil from below, see the senseless killing, robbing, theiving, and all the rest that happens in the neighborhoods that people and their children live in, isn't that evil from below?? \n\nI guess you might have been looking for a more philosophical answer, however for those that are not able to reach the inner peace it takes to see what Heaven and Hell are really about, you don't have to miss out completely...

For me, dark, depressive stuff is a healthy way for me to "purge" my emotions.  It helps me work through the feelings I have about certain things in my life.

I am 26 years old and still afraid of the dark. I sleep well either drunk or completly exhausted.  If I am not either of those, I sleep with a light on and music playing.  The reason for me doing this is because I was molested as a child.  I later heard that many surviors also do this.  Maybe you were hurt as a child and that is something that you felt that you could control by being able to see your surroundings?  Good Luck!

I would like a stable life but I have a family that's way too dysfunctional for that. My life is rather exciting, full of huge ups and downs. Its not ideal but its what I have so I've learned to deal with it. Drama stalks me. I think its because I attract crazy people, haha.

It is a metaphore. Like when they say that Jesus was the son of light. People are afraid of the dark, but as soon as you turn on a light they are not afraid anymore. Therefore, darkness "represents" evil and goodness is represented with light.

life is beautiful.  Sometimes things that happen in life arent fair, but there is even beauty in sorrow.  you should be lucky to be alive, because besides the unfairness you might be experiencing now, there will be amazing moments in your life that you will make you regret saying that you wish you werent alive.  I am not sure what you are going thru, and please forgive me for not understanding you completely here, but there is no stuggle in this life that should make you not want to live on, especially if it has to do with mistakes of other.  Embrace life and live it up.

You are probably attracted to these guys because they are safe, they don't pose a challenge to you, they don't make you want to become a better person. You deserve better, but you don't believe it. Set some goals for your life, challenge yourself to learn new things, to meet people you would not normally associate with because you "think" they are better than you. Go out and help other people, volunteer at a retirement center, work at a youth center, when you are helping others, you will feel better about yourself and also you will learn that you are capable and Worth something. Live your life like you only have one life to live.

We're drawn to certain types of people for many reasons. Our preferences are largely programmed into us at an early age and are often determined by our early family life. Also, we find ourselves going back to the same assholes over and over again until we learn our individual lesson - i.e. don't get involved with the same types of assholes over and over again.

It sounds like your combining all your negatives into one giant lump which over shadows all the positives in your life.  Break those negatives back down into their separate little pieces so they don't seem so large.  Plus, then you can attack and conquer each of them one at a time.
