7 signs that you have an insecure partner

There is a lot of love, loyalty and mushiness but when you look closely, some partners are super insecure in their relationship. This could be due to several reasons. Many do not even realise what is brewing in their head! So here are some signs which help you see that your partner is insecure.

Once in a while this question makes sense but if the question is being repeated often and it feels intrusive, then your partner is indeed insecure.

In the beginning it looks all very mushy and cute that he or she wants to be with only you but latching onto you is a red flag. This person is insecure for sure! They do want to let the world know that you are theirs but too much of it can be hard to handle futuristically speaking. This is the time when you need to sit down and talk to them.

Them asking you again and again if you two are together and looking for reassurance may come from their bitter past experiences or simply a lonely childhood. If not directly, they try to know this indirectly if they are keeping you happy or not.

They are jealous, critical and sometimes suffocating. Insecure people tend to make you feel guilty in case you did not pick up their call or have not messaged them often. If you give a few hours gap, they ask you 21 questions and if not directly, they tend to say things which may make you feel guilty. This is not something you should cater to if that person loves you and you love them wholeheartedly.

The conversation about the ex is never clean as we all have ghosts buried in the closet and that relationship can bring out one too. However, only insecure partners talk about their ex partners a lot or ask you a lot about yours. The interrogation is not what a healthy person wants to do.

Many insecure people like reassurance verbally and one of them is getting an I love you from you every now and then, forcefully. Do you love me? You love me right? These questions repeatedly can be super annoying especially if they do not come out automatically from your mouth. If you are being forced to say it, it means the other one is insecure to an extent. Another way is that just because they doubt themselves, they might keep telling you that they love you, that too is a sign that must not be ignored.

Granted that some love saying sorry a lot, feel apologetic even when you are not even close to it. But this is a sure shot sign of insecurity. Their past must have induced negativity which makes them feel like that. For example, he or she got off the plane but forgot to tell you, they apologize later. This is in a way a sign of worrying for them if the relationship falls apart for not doing so.
