“Dated a woman with commitment issues and an enmeshed relationship with her mother”

I've been in a relationship with a woman who has repeatedly broken up with me due to her commitment issues and her mother's toxic influence, causing me mental stress and suffocation

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had known about her mother's toxic behavior and her own commitment issues before getting into the relationship"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be cautious of relationships where one partner is heavily influenced by their family, and prioritize your own emotional well-being"
