Your Type
True love is mutual support without binding. You deeply need personal space to grow alongside your partner. This style of "strongly defending boundaries and extreme self-sufficiency" actually masks your fear of "losing yourself in the relationship and being crushed by dependency"; you fear that once you completely open up, their needs will swallow your freedom, or you'll become weak from over-reliance, so you use a "calm sense of distance" to ensure you always have the confidence to pull out. But overemphasizing independence makes the partner feel unneeded, even making the relationship stiff like a business partnership. Try intentionally not solving a small problem yourself next time, but sending an SOS to your partner; when you learn to show vulnerability and dependence, your connection will transcend the surface and enter deeper trust.

People who maintain individual identity in relationships are more attractive long-term — 'you make me more whole' beats 'you complete me.'
