5 Ways To Overcome Being Insecure In Your Relationship
Insecurity is a relationship spoiler; it will jeopardize your chance of thinking positively as per how the relationship can be better.
If you’re always bothered about your partner’s commitment to the relationship, you won’t be able to acknowledge the good times together in the relationship. Instead, your mind will always be creating false imaginations, which are not true.
Once insecurity has come to live with you in your relationship, you will begin to find problem where none exist and funny thing about it is that, once you begin to look for signs that will confirm your false imagination, you will see them, though unreal but with you, it’s real enough and to everyone else, it’s just mere delusion.

There is a correlation between imagination and reality, the thing you think about or imagine sometimes come to reality and if you continue to think negative about your relationship, the thing you think about will become real to you and only a matter of time, it will manifest because you’ve always wanted it to come to certainty.
Stop the confusion, desist from thinking negative about your partner or relationship before the thought occupy your mind and make it almost impossible to do without thinking along that way.
Anything we think repeatedly, even though unreal initially, we tend to find a way to justify the thinking and make it real, all because it has occupied major part of our mind and until such thought is being justify, we may find it hard to get them out of our mind.
When next you feel insure, please take this simple approach. Ensure you write down on paper, the things you’re making up in your head and try to separate it with exactly what is happening. Your ability to distinguish between your imagination and reality is a huge step toward self-assurance.

Many people feel insecure in their relationship because, they have always been comparing their last relationship with the present ones.
You may not have had a good romantic relationship in the past, but that does not mean the new relationship will likely toe the same part.
