Captain Save-a-D%$@: Why You Keep Rescuing Men Who Wouldn’t Save You Back

What is a Captain Save-a-D%$@?

She’s not just dating… She’s rehabbing. She’s trying to love a man into his full potential — even if it kills her joy, drains her energy, and tanks her self-worth.

 She’s not in a relationship — she’s in emotional triage.

 - He won’t go to therapy, so she plays therapist.

- He’s not financially stable, so she picks up dinner (and sometimes rent).

- He tells her she’s “too good” for him, and she hears it as a challenge, not a red flag.

 She’s loyal to the struggle — even when it’s destroying her.

The Fixer Addiction

Captain Save-a-D%$@ doesn’t fall for just any man — she falls for the wounded, unavailable, hot-and-cold, “just needs one good woman” type.

 Why?

 Because deep down, she’s attached to proving her worth through healing others. She believes if she can love him hard enough, he’ll finally choose her back.

 But she’s not falling in love. She’s falling into a trauma bond — dressed up as purpose.

You Are Not a Life Coach. You Are a Catch.

You are not here to fix, fund, or facilitate his growth. You are here to receive, be seen, and be loved without a project plan.

Men who are emotionally available won’t need you to mother them. Men who are ready for love won’t come wrapped in chaos and excuses.

It’s Time to Retire the Cape

If this is hitting too close to home, don’t panic — just recognize that awareness is your superpower now.

 You don’t have to fix the pattern overnight, but you can stop repeating it.
