is it just me? why am I like this?

Question

I'm in a relationship after being in a relationship for a year & being mentally, physically, & emotionally abused. We are having problems & it's basically because I'm so needy. I need reassurance every minute of the day. If I don't get it I immediately feel like I did something wrong & he doesn't want me. I hate being this way. When I try to relax & hide it, it drives me even more crazy. I don't want to push him away. How could I fix this?

Answer

How long were you single and able to think for yourself without someone after this abusive relationship ?

Answer

Best advice is counseling. Fixing insecurity issues is hard on your own, go see a therapist.

Answer

I wasn't single for long, sadly. However I've always been guarded since then until I started therapy. While I was in therapy I was dating someone for a year and a half and my therapist also helped me realize I was in an abusive relationship once again. This helped me end the relationship with him and I have now found an amazing guy. He treats me the way I need to be treated and every since I have been with him I haven't felt the need for therapy and have stopped going.

Answer

I had the same thing happen to me I was treated very badly by a few guys and then started holding everyone at arms length. I then started going to therapy and everything started to fall in place. I started to trust more and it was nice to have someone validate my feelings and reassure me that I did nothing wrong.
