Many people are in a relationship but not all are in a healthy relationship. There is many relationship problems couple face. Some problems are not even noticed in the beginning but eventually, they do affect the relationship very badly. A healthy relationship makes you feel safe, loved and supported but sometimes relationship might make you feel anxious, self- conscious and needy. The feeling of love is such that it might keep making you want it more. There’s no wrong in desiring more love but changing yourself and behaving needy can make your relationship worse.
These signs can prove that you are needy in a relationship.
· Losing your individuality
Any relationship shouldn’t take away your individuality from you. Being yourself and complimenting each other is necessary for a relationship. It is ok to spend time with your partner but spending too much of your time pleasing them and always agreeing with them you slowly begin to lose yourself. You become what your partner might be pleased with but you forget that you were loved as you were and not as you are trying to become.
· Extremely jealous
Another sign of being needy is, you can’t stand someone getting close to your partner. You always want to be together and not being able to do so makes you jealous. A little amount of jealousy is healthy and perfectly ok but freaking out when something isn’t in your control is a sign of you being needy in the relationship.
· Moving way too fast
A healthy relationship is always built on a strong foundation. Things often go slow-building each step to the next the point in your relationship but when you are needy you lack self-esteem and thus are insecure which in turn makes you move things faster especially sexually thinking that once you are physical your relationship is permanent which is totally wrong thinking.
· The need for constant reassurance
You need constant reassurance about yourself, you always keep asking your partner whether you are ugly or whether you are not good enough just to reassure yourself that your partner still thinks you are pretty and they still love you
· Overreacting
Overreacting is a regular thing. It’s ok to argue over things or even silly things. But taking silly things to another level and creating completely another meaning out of it is a sign that you are needy if your partner’s attention and you want them to pamper you. Wanting to be pampered is not wrong but the way you choose shows whether you are needy or not in the relationship.
