Jessenia Gallegos Instagram – Relationships are tricky especially when there are inner child woulds that are triggered. Most people don’t even know they are wounded, others are aware. In this relationship one is avoidant, the other has anxious attachments styles. Both require healing and work.
Avoidant attachment is a style that can develop in children when their primary caregiver doesn’t show care or responsiveness beyond providing basic needs. People with avoidant attachment may have difficulty with close relationships & intimacy, and may avoid investing time & energy in relationships. They may also have a strong desire for independence & autonomy. No regard for others.
So, what are avoidant deactivating strategies?
Distancing oneself emotionally
Avoiding physical closeness
Dismissing or rationalizing a partner’s concerns & criticism
Focusing on a partner’s flaws & imperfections
Fantasizing about past or ideal partners
Flirting with others
Always having an exit strategy on hand
Pulling away when things are getting more serious
Pouring themselves into work or hobbies
People with anxious attachment styles may have low self-esteem, fear abandonment, and have mistrust. Most often, anxious attachment is due to misattuned (aloof) & inconsistent parenting. As well as bullying and or abuse from inner or out side members of family, which can be confusing for a child. CONTINUE READING IN COMMENTS:
