Are your insecurities keeping you in your relationship?
There are so many reasons why we stay in relationships when it's not worth it anymore. They've come to a natural ending on the one hand or they're destructive and dysfunctional in the worst-case scenario.
Sometimes people stay because of their own insecurities even when it's obvious things should change.
I've tackled this issue of insecurities in my weekly Love Clinic on iVillage UK - one woman got in touch about whether to leave a relationship or not. And it seems to me that her insecurities are keeping her in it. Please check it out if you think this applies to you.
TODAY’S TIP: one way of knowing if you're staying with someone for the wrong reasons is worrying you won't find someone and they will. This is the ultimate insecurity - it's not about staying with someone because you think there's something worth fighting for.
It's usually about being fearful of being single, not thinking your ‘good enough’ for anyone else to want you, and wanting to hang on to someone even when you don't really love them.
If that rings a bell you know it's time to do serious thinking about the relationship plus work on your sense of security.
