I do think it's normal to worry about your partner finding someone else, to an extent.

However, they chose you for a reason! What they feel towards you tops everything else, and you should take comfort in that. They are with you because, to them, you're better than anyone else.

I think you should talk to your partner about it together. Maybe there's something in particular s/he does that makes you feel this way, and you could work that out together.

Lucky786 agony auntIt's normal to have insecurities about your relationship but it's not normal to ALWAYS worry. What makes you worry? Is it something that s/he has said or done?

Remember this, you cannot control your significant other. If they are going to cheat or leave you for someone else then that's what they are going to do. You can only ever control you, your actions and more importantly, your feelings.

No unless yoru extremely insecure, in which case you should try and get therapy for your insecurities. Or that they are acting in some way to make you think they will, or maybe they have done it before and you have gone back to them. Honestly though if your always worrying they will find someone else, you may end up pushing them into finding someone else.
