@mackenzieherman: They want the fantasy of you…which is hard. And if they are going to be with you, they have to recognize this, and address this head on and try to heal. #avoidantattachment #attachmentstylecoach #commitmentissues #fearofcommitment #breadcrumbs #nocontact #attachmentstyles #healthyrelationships #relationshipcoach
They also start to tell themselves a different version of the relationship so they justify their behavior

Truer words never spoken. It’s all fantasy, a doll on a shelf to pull down when they feel like it.

No one has broken me more than a DA. I was healing from a previous narcissistic abusive relationship when I met my DA and to say that DA broke me even more it’s something else 😢

Exactly! It’s a capacity issue they can’t give anything they are stingy with everything their time, money and emotions because they are emotionally unavailable

Is it the same explanation that they refuse to commit because feelings are too intense and they can’t manage them?

Constant mind games, & emotional/mental turmoil is what happens. 😵💫 I was in such an unhealthy place mentally, while having an FA/leaning DA in my life, and I’m protecting my peace now.

And this is why they’ll look for someone else who doesn’t excite them so much. It won’t hurt as much to lose them as it would you.

I had to tell my avoidant ex this last night. It was gut wrenching “I know you love and care about me as a person, but you don’t want ME, you want the idea you have of me and the role I fill”.

You know what I noticed as well when my DA is eating something he doesn’t offer any to me it’s like he had to fend for himself or something it was so weird to me

Well said, Mack. That’s what I realized weeks ago- my DA wants a wife, but he doesn’t want to be a husband. He wants kids, but he doesn’t want to be a dad 😔
