Your Type
You confirm love by showing and sharing it; feelings need to be seen to feel real, and when they aren't, you quietly begin to doubt. This "performance of love that must be witnessed" actually reflects your underlying anxiety about "relationship instability and a lack of inner certainty"; you fear that if it isn't noticed, the relationship will disappear like an unsaved game, so you use "external witness and attention" to fill the void of security in your heart. But over-relying on the gaze of the outside world can easily strip you of the ability to experience pure interactions between the two of you. Try putting your phone away on your next date and only use your eyes to remember how they smile; when you learn to enjoy love in corners no one knows about, your love will truly belong to you.
