It means you need to have someone in your life. You simply can not be independent. My mother has this condition. I think it stems from emotional insecurity and a total lack of self-respect.
A realistic solution would be to move away from all your freinds and family (lovers?) and start fresh….on your own.

Co-dependency is believing (conciously or subconciously) that your happiness is wrapped up in another human being. You allow bad behaviors from that person because you just can’t imagine having to do without them. The only cure for it is to develop healthy boundaries with people, love yourself enough to set them and have a set of rules about what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior people are allowed to show for you. A lot of people feel guilty if they love themselves, but you really can’t get through life being happy if you don’t. Co-dependency is usually a legacy handed down from generation to generation. Dysfunction breeds dysfunctions if the cycle is unbroken.
