Avoidants will cause you immense amounts of personal growth if you can find one to stick with you for awhile. Amazingly complicated people.

Victoria said it best as to the avoidant experience - "my needs haven't been met, I give up on trying, I need to rely on myself I don't have any other choice to survive, I can't count on anyone" (this happens at a young age and then how we proceed to go through life) Then anxious people look at us like we're these heartless cold people when in reality we don't know how to connect like that and it doesn't feel at all comfortable or safe.

Honestly: I dated one and I'm never dating one again. Forget it. There's billions out there... I learned my lesson from the last one.

I ended a 5 yr relationship w/ dismissive avoidant. The constant running away was triggering and the lack of communication. I couldn’t do it anymore with the lacking if communication

[brego]

This is spot on. The third party, her family, keeping you obsessed and pulling away, rinse and repeat. All this has happened to me

[MrSamIAm]

Your voice is so comforting and interesting! I could listen to you talk for days 😂

Loved this video. Did date whom I believe was a dismissive avoidant 6 mos ago who ghosted me. I've started dating another gentleman recently who is everything the other one was not in terms of non stop attention. I still think about the ghoster and the terrific times we had. This new guy is so sweet and loving but at times I feel stifled. I was raised by my mom who although I know she loved me silently, never hugged or kissed me, that topped with a father she stopped me from seeing, I feel like I'm looking for another one in a sense, and at the same time, I need space. I can't be with this new gentleman 2 or 3 times a week b/c I feel it is too much. As I said I wish the avoidant would come back but why would I want to be abandoned and breadcrumbed when I have someone who thinks the world of me, anyway thanks so much for this video. I did learn from it.

My SO has tons of empathy for others. He also absorbs negative energy, that leaves him exhausted.

Run the other way, that's the secret

I wish i had know this stuff 8 months ago. But last month i dated another avoidant, see the signs and ended it quickly before i get invested. Thank you and Magaret!

Ugh, I just cant believe my husband left me after 18 years, he just left me.he doesnt even want to talk to me anymore. Ive tried everything possible to get him back, but nothing seems to work and I cant stop thinking about him Im frustrated I dont see my life with anyone else. Ive done my best to get rid of the thoughts of him, but I cant I dont know why I’m saying this here, I really miss him and just cant stop thinking about him

I used to joke with my ex that sometimes she was like "trying to hold water" challenging and horrible traumas but she was a beautiful soul

[MzNoir_Rain]

If you have secure attachment style with even an ounce of anxiousness refrain from dating a fearful avoidant. You will spend a lot of your time being anxious. You don’t change them, they change you like a bad apple touching a good one on the tree.

Unless, they’re aware of their issues and actively working on it you’ll be in constant limbo. There are 8 billion people on planet earth. You can find someone who is more self aware. I know it’s not easy, my ex FA is charming, intelligent and handsome but the lack of consistency, feeling like I was a burden, canceled dates and him being unable to be vulnerable just made it too hard and for that I’m glad he decided to part ways.

I knew early on not to pursue this relationship but I forged on. Lesson learned.

They're trash in all honesty. They can pretend for limited time and if you fall for it you're screwed. In my humble opinion they're incredibly close to narcissists.

[brickbuster]

Wow! If you always attract avoidants there is apart of you is avoiding.🤯 i never see it that way.

[therocknrollcook]

Relatable. Am a feminine woman but with hunter gatherer instincts ( figuratively). Dating avoidant men is treacherous AF too!

[earthmanx]

The secret to dating an avoidant is not to date them.

[jers]

My avoidance ex confused me, by the end she did reach out to a third party, a friend to work things through spoiler alert it didn't. What was confusing was she wanted us to be engaged and was trying to push towards marriage, then ultimately left because we got stagnant and we weren't improving ourselves. It's just been an insane inner battle trying to figure her out and what I missed.

[ducktoes]

I was hoping for more ways to connect or make the relationship better. How I can act better. I already know what they're like.
