I think codependency gets a bad rap.
I think being codependent can be a good thing, and very appropriate in many situations.
Lol, codependent isn't dependent or submissive, which I know you love.
It is being pulled against your will by the unhealthiness of another person, then excusing and accommodating their horrid behavior. It can only happen with a lack of self love. As the partner withdraws or abuses, the co-dependent gives more.
Your submissive tendencies are part of loving yourself, giving yourself and letting you be dominated. It is very different.
