SELF ISSUES
“Why am I always insecure in a relationship no matter what?”
I’m afraid there’s really no single reason for things like insecurities, even the insecurities of one person and how they affect a certain aspect of their life — in your case, your relationships — but we can look at common causes.
If you have a lot of experience questioning your self-worth in your relationships, that can be a reason. Did your partners make you constantly doubt their love for you? Were you unable to communicate and resolve most of your issues with them?
Sometimes, a bad track record when it comes to relationships can leave us with scars, and that makes it harder to deal with insecurities, especially those that seem to come out of nowhere.
If it’s not a holdover from previous partners, there might be some underlying issues that you need to confront to really understand why you keep feeling this way. Insecurities usually stem from mental and emotional needs that you have yet to fulfill.
The fact that you’re acknowledging the problem is a good first step, though. It won’t be an easy road, but asking for help is already a sign that you do want a solution for it. It might just take a little time.
