The Evasive 4: 4 Types of Dismissive Avoidant Love Partners
Recognize, adjust, and grow.
You often take a retrospective look at your relationships and point out the key moments that made or broke them.
The truth; it was not that simple or microscopic.
I beat this phrase like a drum, but you’re looking at relationships from a view of emotional responses without having a deep understanding of the behaviors that lead to them.
You must view these behaviors through attachment theory or directly through your attachment style. Your attachment style is at the core of how you show up in relationships.
While you think you have met a bad match, you also could have had misaligned attachment styles that, with work, could have saved past relationships.
The good news is you can have a deeper understanding and recognize the patterns the next time they present themselves. Focusing on the dismissive-avoidant, look for these personalities the next time you feel misaligned.
Traditional
The traditional dismissive-avoidant had a childhood or adolescent period where they did not receive a warm response to emotional needs.
