Do you tend to put your partner’s needs above your own? Does your mood shift based on your partner’s mood?
If you often forsake your own well-being for your partner’s, putting most of your energy into supporting them more than yourself, you may be in a codependent relationship.
Codependence refers to a repeated pattern of behavior that involves prioritizing the needs of others over your own.
You may have started the relationship not intending to become so dependent on the other person, but you’ve noticed that lately, your wants have slowly taken a back seat to theirs.
And this doesn’t just happen in your romantic relationships, but with friends, family, and even coworkers.
