(cont) There relationship is built on shaky foundations in the first
place. Having to keep their marriage a secret hasnt exactly done either
of them any favors, especially Anakin who grew up with very poor, if
any, expectations as to what a partnership between two people should
look like. Even if he loves and respects Padme, when they disagree he
rarely goes about confronting the situation in a communicative way. He
becomes aggressive, like in the Clovis arc or his jealousy of Obi Wan in

Hey! There’s
a lot to unpack here, so I’ll do it in parts, okay?
Theres something interesting about Anakin behaving possessive in the Clovis arc. Hes had no healthy examples of romantic relationships ever. The closest thing hes ever seen were probably relationships on Tatooine, which probably werent ideal. It’s interesting to see that, when threatened, he’d revert so quickly to a very controlling and abusive manner. Its immature: «Youre wrong, Im right, and the most efficient way of fixing this is by me telling you what to do instead of talking.»
