I’ve been in an anxious-avoidant relationship for years, and learning these bonding secrets really hits home. The struggle is real, but awareness helps so much.

after listening to these strategies, I have lost my interest in my avoidant ex. I guess it's a WIN-WIN situation.

I'm an avoidant woman dating an anxious man. Now that feelings are starting to flow my instinct is to pull away. The advantage is, I'm aware of this so it's easier to navigate, but it's still difficult and sometimes exhausting to go against my nature.<br>When I pull away he gets really clingy and emotionally demanding and that makes me pull away even more. But I'm trying my best to correct this because I care about him.

The problem is..with avoidance attachment, most get their "fix" for dopamine thru porn which just absolutely destroys any hope for a lasting monogamous relationship. There is no way a person can truly connect with their partner if images of all the porn they've seen is playing back in their mind

As an anxiously attached person, i feel sad that our emotional needs may never be met and we can freely express our feelings.
