@drewwdaniels: You have to do “cringe” things to create a relationship you want to be present for. You can’t simply go to therapy, and start feeling emotions and have a “happy” relationship. You need to feel fondness. You need to feel warmth towards them. And part of that is choosing to do cringey things that feel too vulnerable. #avoidantattachment #avoidantpartner #anxiousattachment
I think my eye contact also has to do with my asd . But I’m a self aware avoidant … I’m working on it . But doing all this and being self aware , doesn’t help 😭

Why do DA’s have such a hard time with eye contact??? My partner never gives me eye contact when I’m just having a normal conversation with him. It’s so frustrating!!!

the focusing on the positive attributes is HUGE. being hurt is ok, being uncomfortable is normal, but always remember the good and push that to the front because your attachment thrives in that negative cesspool, it justifies your avoidance and self sabotage. avoid black and white thinking and do what you aren't used to- show up with vulnerability and self love.
