I think this is a much healthier way to look at people bc it has become too common to label almost everyone we struggle in a relationship with a “narcissist” . It’s overplayed I think. We all have an attachment style and we can do some deep research and inner healing with this information. As well as better understand those we are or have been in relationship with. I’m so glad I saw this ❤

“Thank you so much for explaining attachment theory! It’s amazing that you’re offering this valuable education at no cost to the public. So many of us are incredibly undereducated about attachment, and we’re truly grateful for all the inspirational material you share with us.”

Hello! I took your quiz and it says that I have a secure attachment style. I unfortunately did not have a loving and healthy upbringing and this confuses me…just a little lol. Now, I have been practicing self reflection since childhood..but I can’t tell if some of the healing methods I’ve implemented have worked, or if I have a false reading of sorts. I generally feel out of touch in relationships and have been told by many close to me that I tend to make them feel small. I feel as if I match the description and genuinely try to be a solid person walking the earth…but I also feel like horrible for unintentionally making anyone feel a certain way. Like if I walk my shopping cart back and someone makes a joke I’ll say something like “well, good people wouldn’t think twice about it” then the other person feels as if I said something about them….with people telling me that I make them feel this way, I always feel as if I’m in a cycle of neutral growth. I know obviously there isn’t a finish line, but if I’m doing alright….I hate the thought that it’s not me and it’s just all around me….the reason is because I accidentally lost someone important to me..I had expected them to see growth as an objective and easy to implant tool (because I reason everything like a dumbass). That’s when I learned that I learned that my weakness was impatience…or was my weakness adhering to boundaries that I now I realize I could have been stronger throughout. In all my life that’s the only time I really regret standing up for myself…..well..thanks for reading and for the awesome video! I got to get back to work cause I paused the video to take the quiz and got all caught up for a second. Bye y’all!

Clearly communicated. Well illustrated. Invaluable information. ❤Thank you, Thais! ❤

[bayareaprepper]

You did a video for me. Thank you. I thought I was all screwed up with all the other attachment styles but I scored a secure attachment style on your test. But can a secure attachment style person get fooled into a relationship by a dark empath, covert narcissist, bpd or anxious/fearful avoidant

[BeingOfLightandLove]

So, is it possible to embody two or more of these attachment styles? I feel that I resonate with two of them strongly and the other one mildly. How do we navigate our way through healing that if there's layers to our attachments?

[amandaarbor]

I got FA from the test, but looking at my childhood, can relate more to DA and AP. There were inconsistencies and lack of emotional support. Not so much chaos, nor substance abuse. My mom did experience some emotional distress when I was young. Also my parents didn’t fight much and had a fairly healthy relationship and still do. Did I get FA because I can relate to those two different styles? When listening to other info on FA I can relate to many characteristics… just not so much the childhood home.

Hi Thais, I’ve been going through a period of dealing with post infidelity stress disorder and am trying to reconcile with my husband, his infidelity has caused me to become anxious pre-occupied where I was leaning more secure prior to his infidelity (it was 5 years ago, I was suspicious for 4 years and then he confessed a year ago, I’ve been in therapy since) can our attachment be altered and dictated by circumstances in our adult lives too? I believe he is fearful avoidant, Thanks ❤

[coyote_in_the_city]

thank you so much for your videos! I'm always wondering, is it a tiny bit more healthy, if I start to be more open to my anxious patterns, whereas before I was only avoidant and thought I don't need anyone? is moving from avoidant to anxious a sign of going in the directioon to secure? 😅 because at least you start to have hope for relating with people, where as before you didn't even saw it as an option.

[nohasamir]

Thais, your videos have helped tremendously in my marriage. Thank you for all the effort. Please allow me to point out something unrelated and rest assured that I do not intend to offend you. Please lose the voice 'fry'... it is so annoying to the degree that I stopped watching your videos then came back again because you're the best on this topic. And like you, I'm an FA and my husband a DA 😂... so you've really helped a lot here.

[Bluebutterfly]

First like First comment 😊 sincerely yours Fearful-Dismissive Avoidant 💜

They offered a free quiz to see which attachment style I am. I took the quiz, but never received results as promised.

[moved]

Off topic but maybe someone can elaborate or may know the video for my question...
Secure attachment here.
I have had two friendships with anxious p. attachments and both times they would contact me and ask how I'm doing and so on. I answer fully and friendly ask what they are up to...Then they don't respond until they want something else a month or so later. When asked they forgot to answer.

Is this testing something or dissociating or see if I care and ask whats wrong, or is this everything is fine I can now take my attention back to my partner that is my first and most important focus??

Just curious what behavior this was..
