whenever i'd have arguments with my mom she would do things like this. when she'd leave the house i didn't know if she was going to come back or not. sometimes after a hard day i would hear the garage door open and i thought i was going to wake up without a mom or dad. and when i'd get into the car i never knew if i was going to be left with a stranger.

this might be dumb but when i was a kid it was super scary. i feel like it's contributed to why i leave others when i split or fear they will leave me.
