Love can be a healing force, but sometimes, for those who carry emotional wounds from past relationships, it can feel like a battleground. When trauma or unhealed wounds from the past are at play, it often results in a relationship dynamic that is emotionally intense and confusing. If you've found yourself in a relationship where your partner exhibits hot-and-cold behavior, gaslighting, love bombing, and emotional withdrawal, it’s possible that they are projecting past fears and trauma in to the present (unto you).

In any relationship, there comes a point when one or both partners may face challenges, whether it’s fear of failure, anxiety about the future, or a tendency to procrastinate. These struggles can sometimes create tension or frustration, especially if one partner feels like they are not being supportive or understanding. It’s difficult when the person you love seems held back by self-doubt, fear, or a cycle of procrastination, but it’s important to remember that these struggles are often rooted in deeper emotional needs. With the right approach, you can help your partner work through these challenges in a way that strengthens your bond rather than weakens it.
