There are several reasons why we self-sabotage our relationships. One reason is because we fear rejection. If we feel that we will be rejected by another person, we might try to avoid them so as not to face that possibility. Another reason is because we fear being seen as weak. If we think we won't measure up to other people's expectations, we might try to make sure we never fail at anything. And finally, we might fear losing control. If we believe that we'll lose control if we let go of our guard, we might try to keep others at arm's length so we don't have to give up any power.
The truth is, none of us wants to be rejected, and most of us want to be accepted. We all want to be seen as strong and capable. However, sometimes we sabotage ourselves because we're afraid of letting go of our own power. When we do that, we end up hurting ourselves and those around us.
It's easy to see how these fears can lead us to sabotage our relationships. However, there are ways to overcome them. First, we need to understand what we're afraid of. Then, we need to learn how to manage those fears. Finally, we need to practice letting go of our fears.
The first step to overcoming relationship fears is to identify them. We often fear things without knowing why. When we try to figure out why we feel anxious, we realize that we're afraid of something specific. Once we know what we're afraid of, we can work to change our behavior. If we want to be able to trust people again, we need to stop being afraid of rejection. If we want to get back into a relationship after a breakup, we need to stop fearing abandonment. And if we want to find love, we need to stop worrying about being alone.

If you find yourself sabotaging your relationship, there are some things you should know. First, you are not alone. In fact, according to Dr. John Gottman, Ph.D., couples therapist and founder of The Gottman Institute, most relationships end because one partner has a problem with self-sabotagment.
