If that love was missing or came with conditions, a part of you never stopped searching for it. So without realizing it, you walk into adult relationships hoping this person will finally give you what she couldn’t: to be wanted without performing, fixing, or earning it.
But a partner can’t be a replacement mother. When they inevitably fall short of that impossible job, the relationship collapses under the weight, and the search starts again with someone new. Different face, same hope, same ending.
It’s not that you keep picking the wrong people. It’s that you keep asking relationships to heal a wound that started long before them.
One place to start: notice what you’re hoping a partner will finally give you. Ask, is this something I need from them, or something I never got from her?
This is exactly the kind of pattern we work through in a session. DM me “MOTHER” to book.
