Unresolved childhood issues

Depending on how much love, time, and attention your parents gave you, their involvement in your life undoubtedly affected how you show up in your romantic relationship. 

If they were there for you, never there for you, or too there for you, you will be drawn to different kinds of partners for your romantic relationship. 

Since you are so used to being in a certain role within your family, you find partners that keep you stuck in that role (without a lot of self awareness/ self development or talk-based theraphy to intervene in your unconscious patterns). So unless you become aware of, and shift your patterns, you will continue to live out the same emotional trauma that you experienced as a young child
