Search Results: confidence or insecurity

Which of these ultimately led to a break-up of yours? And who's fault was it? Your boyfriend/girlfriend or your fault?

1. Breaking promises, lying, cheating in relationships:

These obvious violations of trust almost always result in relationship problems. If the basic trust in a love relationship is repeatedly broken, the problems accumulate and the motivation to stay together decreases.

2. Imbalance of power in relationships:

Relationship problems arise when one partner has more decision-making power than the other. When one person makes all the decisions about activities, friends, financial matters, household matters, and vacations, the relationship can become unstable.

3. Low self-esteem, insecurity, and lack of self-confidence:

Couples can break up because one partner feels unworthy of being loved. This insecurity can lead to possessiveness and dependence, which isn’t healthy for couples in love.

4. Excessive jealousy in relationships:

“Jealousy is cited as one of the most frequent causes of the breakup of romantic relationships,” writes Roger Hock. Jealousy can sometimes trigger abuse and violence, which can cause a relationship breakup.
