I don't think it's their indulgent nature that I was attracted to, but it was something else about them that I was attracted to. With the ILI E5 that I was attracted to, he was there for me when I was going through depression a few years ago. He would always fork out time to listen to all my depressive stories, and when my depression sapped out all my energy and I didn't have the energy to socialise he would always wait patiently for me until I had the energy to socialise again. Never once had he ever lost patience with me or accused me of being a bad friend, but he just stayed by my side and loved me unconditionally.
He had displayed that unconditional love that I was looking for in people, and over time I became attracted to him, and I liked him so much I've fantasized about marrying him before.
The attraction is mutual too, he told me before that he is in love with me and I'm his dream woman. The only thing is that we both lived too far away from each other, and a ldr wouldn't be feasible, so we both decided to stay friends forever.
My friendship with him was really peaceful, we've never fought the entire time we knew each other. Even during those times when I'm feeling irritable and start to become a bit gruff, he knew how to calm me down from my bad moods, he just doesn't argue with me ever, and I'm just so attracted to his calm and collected nature, haha.
But he was extremely addicted to drugs/alcohol, and he became so lost in drugs/alcohol that he seems to have forgotten about our friendship and we keep losing contact with each other.
This ILI E5 was really special to me though, I've never really forgotten about him even during those times when he had forgotten about me and we've lost contact with each other for years.
