not to sound shrink-like, dear, but "how is/was your relationship with your father when you were a child?"
Answer that to yourself, as honestly as you can (usually doesn't have a THING to do with sex- lots to do with love/adoration/neglect, whatever your case may be).
What you think, consciously, has nothing to do with your subconscious attractions. That's why you're "not sure why" you're drawn to them...
That's one to work out with the therapist- not why this latest relationship ended.
At least, that's why my CBT wasn't getting me anywhere. Everyone wants to talk about the most recent relationship. Sometimes talking about the first one solves more...
disclaimer; all the above is all my opinion. I've read a lot of psychology texts, but am NOT by any means an expert.
