Hey Chloe! First, it’s awesome that you’re so self-aware—that’s a big, positive step! Maladaptive behavior means you’ve developed habits (like pushing people away) to protect yourself from hurt, but they don’t really help long-term. Try journaling your feelings or sharing small truths with your partner; open communication can work wonders! You deserve connection and happiness—one coffee date at a time.
