Ben is generally a warm and caring person, looking to earn love by being incredibly giving. He surrounds himself with those who become increasingly needy. He is looking to reach out and help people as a way to get his needs met by others.
He tends to reach out to those who are very needy (the addict, the sick, the wounded) – those that need help but are unlikely to be able to give anything back, creating frustration and internal pain, even low self-esteem. Ben just can’t seem to find love, no matter how giving he is. This type is likely to be an enabler in a relationship, giving and never getting, feeling trapped by it all.
