Has your partner actually called you out on your toxic behavior? to help fix things? (by Sparky)
Has your partner actually called you out on your toxic behavior? to help fix things?
My boyfriend (25M) of 2.5 years broke up with me (27F) because I was clingy and always wanted to hang out, cuddle, be around him. After the break up I realize it was overbearing and my childhood trauma and being an only child caused me to be clingy. I am currently in therapy to process all the trauma and handle my emotions better. And possibly reconcile with him in the future. He just wants space to hang out with his friends at the moment.
My ex never expressed that he was feeling unhappy and call me out when I have my moments. I apologize right away cause I realize I ****ed up and shouldnt have acted that way and he always says "it's fine" and never actually tries to talk to me about it. Never clicked in my head to fix my ****. I have never been called out on my actions (not just in this relationship, but in general) and whatnot so I never thought it was an issue.
Tldr: If you have clingyness or any toxic behaviors, did/does your partner call you out on it and work it out with you? It was my first relationship so was not sure how relationships should be like when it comes to communication and such.
