I'm too dependent on her

She said it freaks her out. So I have to learn to live my life and have her just adding to it rather than being the central piece of the puzzle.

I knew I was too much. No wonder they always leave. Guess I should just go back to being touch-starved and lonely, it was easier that way. Got to endure the pain.

I am like this too, and I demand a lot of a partner. I learned some about attachment styles and delved into some childhood stuff with my therapist and I have a better handle on it now.

You're likely an anxious attachment style, read into it and it might help you ☺

@KiwiDan it's manageable! 💙💙 I know it's hard though and it hurts. But we can heal from it and become more stable and secure 💙
