Are you attached because you love the one by your side or because you feel alone? Find out by answering these questions:
Do you feel like you are 100% yourself in this relationship?
One of the clearest signs that shows that your relationship is not real, but the result of the desire to escape loneliness, is precisely the inability to be yourself in a relationship. You fear that if you act like you really are, your partner will leave you, so you 'sacrifice' your authenticity to stay in a relationship.
Do you have to stay with your partner all the time to be happy?
If so, we're sorry, but you're avoiding being with yourself. If you feel unhappy when you're not with the person you're in a relationship with, then maybe your relationship is an attempt to escape loneliness.
Do you get jealous over the smallest things?
Jealousy is another sign that your relationship is controlled by the fear of losing the other person. According to studies, jealousy in a relationship is normal and is seen as a positive force that reminds people to follow through and make nice gestures for each other, but when it is excessive and unfounded, it can be the result of fear of being alone and losing the person you are close to.
Insecurities and paranoia that you will lose your partner also bring toxicity to your relationship.
