Hello. So at work today today I was talking to a colleague and he was saying to me how he hates when people speak for him. We were then in a group conversation with 2 other people and I noticed that I was doing just that. Whenever the attention was on me I would redirect it to him and say something like "brendan does xxx and I find it hilarious". I didnt realise this until later and I did it quit a few times.
Is this due to codependency, social anxiety or could it be because of some borderline symptom?
