Emotional Dependence And Desire For Control

The Story

Hello people, with each of my relationships I am becoming more and more convinced that I suffer from emotional dependence. I am a woman of 21, so far I have had 4 partners and in general all my relationships have ended in the same tragic way. From the beginning of the relationship, I worry about the very end, I have problems with trust, which does not allow me to relax and I am always alert to the suspicion that my partner may lie or hurt me, and usually my fears are justified. When I'm with someone I'm looking at in the long run, I think if one day we could settle down as a family. When I had any doubts or was hurt, I had a habit of using some manipulations or interfering with strangers in the relationship, just to find out something or to influence my friend. All this is due to fear of the end of the relationship, which is part of a greater fear of one day ending alone. I have always been surrounded by fans because I look good, I am cheerful and confident, sociable and I have a rich general culture. At some point in the relationship, however, I begin to feel unhappy, depressed, crushed, taken for granted, losing my confidence and radiance. This is the moment when my mind tells me that the relationship should be terminated, but I absolutely refuse to obey this thought. Then comes my desire for control and my attempts to put the relationship in order in my own destructive way for both parties. Even when the partner wants to end the relationship, I can't let him do it, although I am fully aware that this is the most logical and reasonable way out. Then months pass, even a year, until he recovers from the pain and frustration, and regained his confidence. I worry that one day I may come across a violent partner and my emotional addiction will prevent me from ending the relationship, or that I will have problems at all in the future. Please don't judge me, I'm self-critical enough. I will be grateful to receive well-meaning advice.
