Psychology says parents who unconsciously compete with their adult child’s partner for closeness don’t realize they’re running a test the child can’t pass — because choosing the partner looks like betrayal and choosing the parent feels like regression, and the child eventually solves it by choosing distance, which is the one outcome nobody wanted but everyone’s behavior made inevitable
