Can anyone help with a vertical load-control and tangent displacement control problem in Abaqus?

Hi

I applied a vertical load control (negative y-direction) on the rigid body until it reached the pre-set value of  -100000nN then for lateral movement the rigid is constrained to only move in x-direction (displacement load) and with the same -100000nN constant load at negative y-direction, however, it isn't following the boundary condition I defined for it and the contact gets open and the rigid body moves upward as shown in the pictures!

would you please help me with this problem?

thank you so much
