@stephanne221: Replying to @amberfox835 In The Attachment Academy, I help burnt out pursuers stop abandoning themselves. Because here’s the truth: If you’re constantly chasing love, reassurance, or connection, you’re probably not just anxious — you’re abandoning yourself. The cycle of overfunctioning, overcommunicating, and overexplaining is exhausting and it disconnects you from you. In The Attachment Academy, I help you turn that energy inward to meet your own needs, reclaim your self-worth, and learn secure connection without self-erasure. Only $25/month, less than one co-pay.

He said some extremely awful disrespectful things that can’t be taken back. I know my worth. I’m done abandoning myself. It’s over.

By the time we got into couples therapy I had already felt so much liberation in no longer pursuing him. I started leaving the relationship emotionally and we have been in therapy over a year and I just now am feeling like I actually want to stay in the marriage but it will never be like it was. I will never be that person again. I will never abandon myself again to pursue him.

I asked CHATGPT why I motivate my partner and give my all to them and not myself, even when I get burnt out. It said there’s a wall between my actions and my self motivations.

This is who I was, and I realized it. I realized no amount of effort and care was going to get it back. So I stopped. Completely. And that hasn’t done anything either.

YUP. I was this person in my marriage. I finally begged for a divorce. It wasn’t until then that he understood what he had done. I was just SO done. My current relationship is the complete opposite

Emz ✨ :
I've gotten to this point but I know its not that he doesn't care he just struggles to listen and I have to pick up all the important things and have to be the one to remind him of everything. It's exhausted me but ik he's not doing it on purpose he just struggles but I now have resentment and idk how to fix it

Dae :
This is me in every relationship. I guess I have a type, but it does start to make you wonder if maybe you really are asking too much. My current relationship is much better than past ones, but sometimes he "checks out." He takes care of me but sometimes feels distant. And I don't really feel like there's something wrong unless I'm hormonal which really makes me feel crazy. Yet also I think maybe just the instability of my moods when I'm hormonal amplifies existing problems, so I simultaneously feel like my feelings are valid and invalid. We are both survivors of traumatic relationships with narcissists. I have had some therapy but need more, I don't think he's had any at all but is not opposed to it. Poor guy is "co-parenting" with a narcissist actively.

Meatball :
What's crazy is I never realized there was actually terms for all of this. I broke up with my fiancee a year ago, and it was exactly this. A couple month before the breakup I even told him outright I was no longer chasing him. He told me after it ended he didn't think I had been serious. WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?!
