Couples who love and care about each other can sometimes experience difficulties.
You might realize that it's harder to talk to your partner about your real feelings or concerns.
You might notice that arguments (often about the same topics) are getting more intense or happening more frequently.
You may be feeling that life events (work-related stress, a new baby, an illness, ) have overwhelmed your relationship.
You may have tried to work things out together on your own; but the changes don't seem to last very long, or you both end up more angry and frustrated than if you didn't try at all.

If you find yourself answering "yes" to the above questions, you may be experiencing codependence.
This can be viewed as a behavioral and emotional condition that affects your ability to have healthy, mutually-satisfying relationships.
People with codependent tendencies often find themselves in one-sided, emotionally destructive and/or abusive relationships.
Codependents often have low self-esteem and need something or someone outside of themselves to feel OK.
They have good intentions and often are "caretakers, " but end up finding that their care taking becomes endless and self-defeating.
