@erikagrundon: Replying to @Some guy avoidants trigger anxious attachments to activate. Secure people do not become anxious when triggered, the definition of securely attached is showing up regulated under emotional stress and consistently showing up with secure behaviors. Taking accountability of how we show up is how we heal. It’s ok to have a baseline of anxious attachment, start focusing on what you can control #anxiousattachmentstyle #attachmentstyles #avoidantattachment #avoidantbehavior #anxiousattachment
Being invited to enter into an emotionally reciprocal relationship with someone who is pathologically negligent is going to mess with anyone, secure or not

Honestly, I’d say it’s the other way around. They turn anxious people into secure people. You suffer so much, that, as a survival mechanism, you learn to set boundaries early on and walk away the minute you identify red flags. You also learn to appreciate peace over chaos. Happened to me.

Secure people wouldn’t deal with avoidants. They will not tolerate the ups and downs and the withdrawals and hot/cold emotions. Anxious people will deal with it because they can’t imagine being alone and legitimately think this is the only person they’ll find. It’s a facade. Other avoidants will stay with avoidants also because they are both surface level and don’t even see the gap.

Thank you. The vibe of anxious attachers here is that they’ve done nothing wrong. They’re just as insecure as avoidants and also have a hell of a lot of work to do
