9 Signs you’re Sabotaging Your Own Relationship!

Relationships are complex. It’s not all smooth-sailing. Over time, you grow distant and build barriers between you and your partner. There’s no communication. There’s no compassion. We’re so caught up in the blame game, that we often overlook our own little contributions that are ruining our relationship.

In this blog, we discuss 9 signs that indicate you’re sabotaging your own relationship!

You Start to Back out When Things Get Serious

For some people, the prospect of dealing with negative emotions is far too great and even overcomes the feelings of love. Just as the relationship and commitment begin to strengthen, you find yourself getting nervous and backing off, desperately looking for any excuse to avoid meeting your partner’s expectations.

You are Overly Sensitive

If you’re trying hard to reach the coveted title of drama king or queen, your relationship doesn’t stand a chance of lasting. Creating unnecessary conflict, being overly dramatic or always trying to get a reaction from your partner are sure-shot signs of self-sabotage.

You’re Too Controlling

If you want your relationship to thrive, you need to give your partner their personal space. Trying to dictate every affair of their personal life seldom leads to a healthy bond. It’s okay to let go of the wheel sometimes.

You Constantly Compare Your Partner with Your Ex

Another indicator of self-sabotage is that your ex is on your mind. It’s like a scoreboard in your head with you constantly comparing your current partner with your ex essentially preventing them from building a connection. It’s important to let go of the past to give your future a chance.

You Don’t React

Simply put, you have a “too cool for school” attitude. Moments of happiness and anger don’t elicit much emotion from you because it gives you an illusion of control. But acting like you don’t care all the time will only alienate your partner and lead to a rocky relationship.

You Start to Get Clingy

Calling too much, crying most of the time and self-pity are all signs of being overly dependent on your partner. It only helps pushing your partner away.

You’re Always Sarcastic

Few things are as uncomfortable as conversations that are entirely sarcastic. If you’re not having enough adult conversations, it’s time for some serious introspection.

You Don’t Allow Your Partner to Speak up

If you don’t allow your partner to speak up and give them their space, they won’t be who they truly are. Despite your disagreements, each party needs to have their say if you want the relationship to stay afloat.

You Have More Important Things

We all have commitments. Friends, family, careers need to be given their due right but if your partner always comes second, then you’re probably looking for the exit door.

Self-sabotage is often a subconscious process and requires professional help to completely overcome.
