    Hello,

    I’ve recently realized that I tend to be too emotionally dependent when it comes to romantic relationships, and this has screwed things over in the past (well, i can’t blame them), but now I really want to learn how to stop all those unhealthy behaviours before they screw me over again. How many of you found themselves in this situation? What did you do to learn to cope?

    Dear Ayras:

    One thing I learned is to not voice every feeling or thought I have just because I have it. So, if I feel, for example,  jealous that the person on whom I feel dependent has a friendship with someone else, and I want to be the only person he spends time with (would be unfair to expect or demand), then I don’t voice this. I take a deep breath and go for a walk. Not a perfect solution, but it prevents problems.

    You wrote, “I can’t blame them”- do you mean that you voiced thoughts and feelings that you shouldn’t and as a result relationships ended?
