5 Signs That Your Partner is Holding You Back
In the ideal relationship, your partner will always be loving and supportive. However, we all know that’s not the case. One major problem in relationships is when one partner doesn’t allow the other one to grow. Here are five warning signs to look for:
Jealousy
Whatever you do, your partner gets easily upset when they’re not included in your plans. For example, he’s not only jealous of any other man you come in contact with, but also jealous of your time spent with friends and family. If your partner continuously opts for you to stay by their side, they’re severely limiting your ability to spread your wings.
Making excuses
Everyone makes mistakes, but we should never make the same ones twice. If your partner continues to make the same mistakes in your relationship without learning from them, this is a cycle of hurtful behavior.
Unresponsive
If you make plans and your partner is never following through, or only following through every now and then, it’s time to take a hard look at your relationship. They’re expecting your attention and loyalty but not returning the favor.
Insecurity
If they’re constantly afraid that you’ll leave the relationship, it can make things very unstable and one-sided.
Your partner doesn’t celebrate your success
If you get that promotion and they can’t be happy for you, something’s wrong. They could be afraid of your power and jealous of your achievements. A confident woman gives no time to partners that hold her back from achieving all that she wants in her life.
