i completely understand. i feel the same way. its a defense mechanism ur brain is using bc it craves to be loved but its terrified of being hurt so it wants to be in control. it associates opening urself up & trusting another person w them hurting u bc thats what ur used to experiencing, the only issue w that is if we dont heal enough to allow ourselves to trust someone we'll never feel that love we crave. ppl will always hurt us & if we try to control them it will only push them away
