@mackenzieherman: Interrupting these milestones can sometimes take you back to square 1, and that’s not something you want to do. Stay in no contact. #anxiousattachment #fearfulavoidantattachment #attachmentstyle #avoidantattachmentstyle #avoidant
He’s at milestone 3 rn. Only took him last than a month. He just texted me tonight saying he’s sorry for his mistakes and that he wishes he could make it up to me… should I consider that a breadcrumb or an actual attempt towards meaningful reconnection? I’m leaning towards the latter tbh

Day 55 of no contact. It's so hard. I really needed this.

I'm so glad I'm past this. I went NC right away but thought about them daily. Literally every day. Then a little over a year later, it just stopped. I'm not even drawn to Attachment Theory videos anymore.

Juice box enthusiast :
I think the worst part is that he just didn’t have the energy or time to give to a relationship. He said he never stopped loving me and that he does want me and didn’t want this but couldn’t give me what I needed basically, and that because of the lack of time and energy he can’t see himself in a relationship for a while. Originally when it happened he said he could see us getting back together he just needs time. Then he was saying that the distance is super hard and shit and basically we haven’t been talking but it hurts so bad and he seems so unbothered

I don’t know what to do anymore. I just recently found out that he has a girlfriend we were on and off and tried three times and we ended up lasting for a year and eight months but what I don’t understand and it breaks my heart even more it’s the fact that he has a girlfriend that he continues to look through my stuff.

He blocks me, unblocks me. Leaves me unblocked for a while. Blocks back. He’s consistently been blocked. Why does he do the block/unblock game?

Is anyone in a general support group with this ? Because we need to remind each other it’s not worth it.

yup, it definitely resets back to stage one "relief," and I didn't even contact him.. Only played a song that was visible because he played love songs the day before, and I know it was for me. Also, we should talk about how avoidants can actually project their avoidance on to anxious and they become FA. I'm starting to feel like I'm shutting down from everyone. I don't want to feel what I felt from him so staying away with in myself, I feel safer. Not expressing my feelings. Not showing how strong I feel for them or anyone

I have saved two of your videos and I listen to them cause they help and feel supportive…I hate that now I can publish a whole thesis about this attachment style but it still means there’s nothing I can do to make any practical changes

Is it normal for them to move extremely quickly in the next relationship like post them all the time love bombing that stuff does that mean we are done for good or just distracting herself from the truth thoughts ?
