I have sometimes heard couples being described as “codependent”. On the face of it, people depending on each other sounds like a good thing. However, it is clear from the context that being “codependent” is regarded as bad. What exactly does codependent mean and what is so bad about it?
Link to some information on co-dependency.
Definitly not a good thing then.
It is a strange expression, it seems that one can be co-dependent all on your own.
