Do you always seem to wreck your relationships before they’ve had a chance to develop? Are you so jealous and controlling that you end up pushing your partner away? Have you ever wondered why you only have short-term relationships?

If any of the above sound familiar, you could be self-sabotaging your relationship without knowing it.

Relationship self-sabotage is the act of preventing a romantic connection from growing and maturing into a loving partnership.

So how can you tell if you are self-sabotaging your love life? Why are you prone to this behaviour and can you stop it? First, let’s identify the signs.

You can actively or passively self-sabotage your relationship. For example, an active way to sabotage a relationship is to cheat on your partner. A passive way is a simple lack of commitment or a refusal to talk about important issues.

Active ways of self-sabotaging your relationship

1. Constant criticism

One way to push away a partner is to look for character flaws and use this to undermine them. Constant criticism works two ways; it makes life so intolerable for them they leave you, or it gives you an excuse to go yourself.

2. Serial cheating

Ask any couple what’s the worse thing their partner could do to them. Undoubtedly, they’ll say cheat with another person. It is the ultimate betrayal. Being intimate with someone else conjures up the most hurtful images and feelings. +---> https://rayviolet.blogspot.com/2022/01/9-signs-you-are-self-sabotag...
