Common Repetition Patterns

These are the patterns people repeat most often:

• Choosing emotionally unavailable partners — often mirrors a parent who was distant or inconsistent
• People-pleasing until resentment — mirrors a childhood where love felt conditional on performance
• Avoiding conflict until explosion — mirrors a home where disagreement was dangerous
• Seeking constant reassurance — mirrors an unpredictable caregiver
• Sabotaging good relationships — mirrors a belief that love is not safe.
