Are you codependent?
Are you trying to fill the void you feel inside with people?
Are you dependent on someone else to make you happy?
Are you dependent on someone else opinion to determine your decisions?
Don’t get into relationships trying to fill a void you feel inside. Only God can fill that void.
If you find yourself trying to fill voids with relationships you will only be engaging in relationships because of fear of of being alone and not love.
The fear of being lonely shouldn’t be your motive for a relationship. Even if you get into a relationship you will still be unfulfilled because you lack a relationship with God.
God’s love will fulfill you! No one can do you like God can!
Webster defines codependency as : a psychological condition or a relationship in which a person manifesting low self-esteem and a strong desire for approval has an unhealthy attachment to another person and places the needs of that person before his or her own.
In the beginning of my marriage I learned that it’s not my husband’s responsibility to keep me happy. If my happiness is dependent on him, then I would have an off balance life.
If my emotions are dependent on him then I’m putting myself in an unhealthy place.
When you get into a relationship or get married your significant other adds to your happiness. You have to be happy with yourself and who you are as a single.
