How could I love myself better to love him better ?
Relationship Stress / by IPetrichor

...See more Hello everyone, I’ve been with my boyfriend for over a year now, and because of studies we’ve been in a LDR for 7 months now. It’s been really challenging and hard, and I’ve come to learn a lot about myself. I realize that because of things in my past that made me feel deeply abandoned, I today have a lack of confidence, an extreme fear to be abandoned again, and this affects my relationship with my boyfriend. * I feel really sad when he’s having great fun without me abroad, or jealous * I can’t stand hearing him talking about one of his close girl friend and ex * I cry for nothing when I think about small details and words that hurt me I realize that my happiness relies too much on him now, I’m in a situation that I’ve always feared because I know myself : being in a dependent and toxic love (from my side), and I ideally I’d like to be able to be fully happy with myself so I can love him better. I also feel bad because I clearly see that he loves me without depending on me as much as I do If you have any advice, please tell me :) Many thanks !
