Why is it essential to help your pattern achieve their goals

While speaking to Briefly News, relationship and sex educator Kelley Nele told the publication that playing an active role in a partner’s success can seem harmless due to the nature that each partner wants: "wants a supportive partner and being a supportive partner."

"Being overly involved can be detrimental to our relationships. Not only can it cause dependency issues and loss of one’s self, but it can cause us to live vicariously through our partner—which is a hollow way to exist—as well as create resentment over time, she explained.

The relationship expert went on to say that it is essential not to "overplay our role in someone else’s life."

"While it is important for us to support our partner’s endeavours, we need to remember that their success is not our responsibility. If you are more preoccupied/consumed with their issues, this is a red flag. The best way to support our partner while cultivating our own independence is to pursue things (career, hobbies, etc) outside of our partner that give our life meaning," she added.
