Why He Refusing to Close the Bedroom Door is a Red Flag
The Situation
"He refuses to let me close the bedroom door when I'm resting"
The Brutal Truth
His need to keep the door open is about control, not care. It shows a lack of respect for your boundaries and personal space. This isn't affectionate; it's possessive and manipulative, making your comfort less important than his preferences.
❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)
An anxious person might try to appease him by allowing it, thinking it will prevent conflict or make him feel better. This is wrong because it sacrifices their own needs for someone else's control, reinforcing unhealthy dynamics.
