How to know when your past Is in the present.
Are you dating someone with a troubled past, or do you think that your own past relationships may be having a negative effect on your current relationship?
Below are a few relationship issues to look out for, each of which (especially when present together) could be suggestive of a past relationship wreaking havoc on a new relationship.
Being petty to your partner could be a sign of inappropriately applied defense mechanisms.
Excess jealousy or paranoia could result from fear due to past, repeated toxicity.
Frequent communication failures or lack of understanding surrounding partner conflicts might both be indicative of unresolved past harm.
Saying goodbye to the past.
So, when it comes to past relationships affecting current ones, what can we do?
If you ask yourself how to forget past relationships, it may not be possible. However, working with an Online Relationship Counselor can lead you in the right direction. While a Counselor may not be able to help you entirely forget your past unhealthy relationships, they will help you to manage your emotions appropriately.
They can also work with you to identify signs that wounds from past experiences continue to fester, then lead you in a direction to close those wounds and learn to love healthily again.
Whether you prefer to work one-on-one with a Counselor or if you and your Counselor decide that it could be beneficial to work with your significant other, too, online relationship counseling provides an incredible amount of flexibility that’s perfect for, however (and whenever) you want to meet.
