Childhood Habits That Affect Your Relationship Now

People who are afraid to show emotion or, for that matter, initiate conversation—might be described as wallflowers. 1. Abandonment People who cling to others because they’re afraid of being left and don’t feel important relationships will last. They’re usually attracted to partners who cannot be there in a committed way 2. Emotional Deprivation Most of the time, these patients haven’t had someone to nurture them, to care deeply about everything that happens to them or someone who was tuned in to their true feelings and needs 3. Entitlement Those who hate to be constrained or kept from doing what they want or feel that they shouldn’t have to follow the normal rules and conventions other people do 4. Defectiveness People who think they’re unworthy of the love, attention, and respect of others and believe that no matter how hard they try, they won’t be able to get a significant partner to respect them or feel they are worthwhile. 5. Subjugation In relationships, these people let the other person have the upper hand and worry a lot about pleasing other people so they won’t be rejected. 6. Unrelenting Standards People who must be the best at most of what they do and feel there is constant pressure to achieve and get things done. Their relationships suffer because they push themselves so hard. 7. Mistrust/Abuse Those who feel that they cannot let their guard down in the presence of other people, or else that person will intentionally hurt them. If someone acts nicely toward them, they assume that he/she must be after something. 8. Self-Sacrifice People who puts others’ needs before their own, or else they feel guilty, and usually end up taking care of the people they’re close to. 9. Social Isolation Individuals who don’t think that they relate well to other people and/or feel that they don’t fit in with any sort of group. 10. Dependence People who often feel helpless or aren’t capable of making a decision without the aid of another person. 11. Vulnerability to Harm or Illness Hypochondriacs and/or those who consistently fear that they will be involved in a catastrophe like an airplane crash or hurricane. 12. Enmeshment Young’s patients who have a weak sense of personal identity and habitually cling to or “mesh” with other people do so in order to feel like a complete person. http://www.entadaplace.com/18-childhood-habits-that-affect-your-relationship-now/

My childhood habit is quite different. It's affecting my relationship positively. When i was younger, i was stubborn, cocky, a chauvinist and perhaps a pervert. Then i used to do alot of runz with girls. sometimes i'll go call girls for guys who will pay me peanut just to bang those girls later. Even a childhood friend of mind got a girl pregnant and they had to abort the child. We moved out of that area and soon enough everything began to change. My new home was quite boring, it wasen't fun like my formal area so i decided not to keep any friends around. Well to cut the long story short. now i'm less stubborn, i don't look for people's trouble.i can't even remember the last time i fought, i don't keep bad company, i'm just living a modest life.Unlike before when i used to be free with babes, now if see a girl i like so much i'll be scared to approach her. I think my new life changed my mentality of wanting to be a player when i was young. Sometimes i reminisce about those days and i still can't believe how much i've changed.
