Loving your partner is natural. But when you’re constantly preoccupied with them, what they’re doing, who they’re with, when they’ll text, you’ve slipped into obsession. And obsession, unlike love, can slowly end your relationship.

Signs You’re Obsessed

You are constantly thinking about them, ignoring work or responsibilities You stalk their social media for updates and feel extreme jealousy when they spend time with others You neglect your own needs, hobbies, or health and even ignore friends and family You are daydreaming about unrealistic future scenarios and over-texting, re-reading chats.

How Obsession Hurts

Over obsession can trigger anxiety and stress. It also lowers self-esteem through constant comparisons Disrupting your daily life, work, or studies and strain your friendships and family bonds And most commonly, you have mood swings based on your partner’s attention, disrupting your mental peace.

How to Overcome It

Self-awareness is the first step: notice your thoughts and stop them from controlling you Prioritise yourself and build your life with hobbies, passions, and goals. Practice self-love without relying on external validation Give space, trust me, a healthy distance makes bonds stronger. So stay engaged in career, studies, or fitness. Seek balance, love is about growing together, not losing yourself.
