Have you ever been the perpetrator/victim of a self-fulfilling prophecy? I have. I once cared for someone deeply and never wanted to let them go. However, because I was so afraid I'd lose them, I held on too tightly. I didn't let them breathe, and it ended up pushing them away.
It can be hard to loosen your grip and let there be some distance sometimes, especially if you've lost people before and are scared of losing someone else. Yet in holding on so tightly that that love becomes toxic we can bring about thew very thing we fear most. As hard as it is, sometimes you have to loosen your grip and let that someone have their space. If your love is true, they won't stray far and they'll come back in the end, even if it's only as a dear friend and not as the partner you thought they were.
It can be the hardest thing to do, to loosen your hold and watch the distance between you and the person you love grow, but if you are tethered to one another by true love, then they will never truly leave you, even if they are away for the moment. If you allow you hold to become unhealthy ad toxic, however, they can feel no option but to leave or suffocate- causing you to lose the person you care about most and bringing into reality your greatest fear.
Sometimes you must let go and let love do its thing...
I don't know whether you're read this thread or reply, but if you read it just know that you're not the only one to go through this and that you're not alone. Don't let your fear control you and destroy what you have. You must let go of your fear and let love do its work
