Answer (1)

Co-dependence is the term used to describe relationships where two individuals influence each other in ways that reinforce harmful behaviors. This often involves one partner enabling the other's unhealthy habits, leading to a toxic dynamic. While binge drinking and abusive relationships may occur, they do not fully capture the co-dependent relationship structure. ;
