Hey first time poster long time lurker. I was just wondering if anyone else in here could tell me this is common or familiar.

I manage to do errands solo and I live by myself, but I go to visit my FP (who is also my SO) every weekend. We went grocery shopping together and I completely broke down when they didn’t have the bread I wanted. I was nearly inconsolable and all I wanted was to be comforted by him.  

I’ve noticed it’s harder for me to put my mask on when he’s around and pretend everything is fine. It seems like all of my emotions just spill out when he’s around and I can’t control any of them. I get really giddy then I throw tantrums and cry and get overly angry. When it’s the end of the weekend it feels like the end of the world, but once I get home and am settled it’s not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Then rinse and repeat next weekend.

After reflecting on it i thought this is called emotional regression but please correct me if I’m wrong. Does anyone have any advice on how to combat this?
