We don't have our reference point, orientation to our emotions, feelings, body. We will tend to seek that outside of ourselves. Somebody else's opinion. Acknowledge what you experience in your body. Legitimacy of our reactions. How we react to our things.

Our locus of focus, they take it with them. We don't have strong sense of self there. We don't have internal orientation to our own reality or own perspective. Then our safety resides in other person based on their approval.

Test. If I take them out of equation do I like this? Start decoding ourselves from others, so we get access to our boundaries, needs, own wisdom, intuition & basic sense of existence. If I need to please someone, check what I want before making commitment.
See what speaks to you - What is revolting to you? What is boring, meh, maybe. Get a sense for these basic impulses in our body because we have Yes impulse, No impulse, Maybe impulse, light and heavy experience. This discerns what we look and want.
We are afraid of setting boundaries. We are afraid people will think we are nasty if we set boundary, fear people will abandon us, say we are selfish if we set boundary, we have to shut up, sweep under rug-if you come from dysfunctional home.

That is not your fault that you've been encoded for fear. It's not your fault that your personality has learned survival mechanisms:push people away or fawn after them. Not aware you have been abandoned:your life is perfectionist,attract toxic,can't let go

Natural powerlessness. We have limited scope of power in our world. We have power how we care and manage our emotions, actions we take, resources we have time, capacity. That is scope of our power.

In codependent response that is terrifying: person can do whatever they want. Sense of safety in codependency is generated by our sense of power doing certain things. If I am perfect person, they will love me. If I get rid of need they will stop doing it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVV4wTp_3ek
I change me, I change them- that is fantasy. I am solution, so they will stop doing that. It seems logical – idea of influence, that is not reality. Reality is people will do whatever. We need to determine if their behavior aligns with our own standards.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVV4wTp_3ek
Find Operational compatibility. Some things to negotiate, but overall there is no abuse, no verbal attacks, contempt. That is being anchored in ourselves, knowing, loving being who we are. Rather than controlling their behaviour by being something else.

Maybe I am not even the problem. I said No – now I am selfish. These are not problems. These are normal aspects of relationships. I have needs, limits, capacities – you will say No to things, that is normal. To people who are entitled these things become weaponized against us.
In reality their entitlement is the problem. Now we can discern what is really going on here. Is this someone who's trying to control me to give them more access to my resources? Or is this someone who respects me and treat with kindness.
