12 | Do you expect to be abandoned or rejected? You’re not alone in this, and there is an explanation (attachment theory) and a solution

from SOBRIETY CHECKPOINT - Sober Living, Sobriety, Addiction Recovery, Emotional Sobriety, Alcohol Free · host Felicia Hermle, MSW | Sober Therapist, Emotional Health Coach

Whether you like it or not, you're constantly, unconsciously expecting your romantic partner or even other people in your life, to act like your parents did, and because of those expectations a dynamic is created where we learn to expect certain behaviors from other people. As we’re growing up we  learn to expect certain things from our parents based on past experience, and because of that, we take those expectations into our relationships in adulthood.
