I don’t know why you’re dating. Maybe you’re dating for fun. Or perhaps you want something more serious.

Whatever your reasons, I’m sure of one thing: you’d like to avoid unnecessary pain.

There’s a lot of advice everywhere about what to do when you’re dating.

I am going to give you some tips about what not to do when you’re dating.

#1: Never Be in a Codependent Relationship

When vines grow too tightly intertwined, they start to fight for resources — sunlight and essential nutrients.

This struggle can stop each vine from growing well on its own and make both vines weaker over time.

Codependency is exactly like that.

When it starts, it can feel like a Romeo and Juliet kind of love. You feel you can’t live without each other, always texting and communicating.

But that intensity can suffocate a relationship. You start to rely too much on each other and not grow as individuals.

Women who enjoy this intense closeness often have anxious attachment styles.
