What causes fear in relationships?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Fear in relationships is born from need and clinging; true love is an overflowing sharing that frees us from possession and fear."

We’re scared in relationships when we need and use each other; when love is generous and not clingy, the fear goes away.
Why this matters practically
- Treat your partner as a person to share with, not a means to get needs met.
- Replace clinging with inner fullness and self-responsibility.
- Practice trust and open communication instead of control or jealousy.
