How Childhood Trauma Affects Your Love Life

Fear Of Abandonment

If you experienced neglect or inconsistent care as a child, you may struggle with clinginess or anxiety in relationships.

Difficulty Trusting Others

Betrayal or broken trust in childhood can lead to fear of intimacy and difficulty opening up to partners.

Attracting Toxic Relationships

Unresolved trauma can make toxic dynamics feel familiar, leading to patterns of unhealthy relationships.

Fear Of Vulnerability

You may put up emotional walls to avoid getting hurt, making deep connections difficult.

People-Pleasing & Over-Accommodating

Growing up in a chaotic environment can lead to prioritizing others’ needs over your own to keep the peace.
