it isnt possible to stay with an avoidant if you are secure 😅 bc avoidants have a defensivness wound, are selfish, can’t talk through conflict. they shutdown

I lost my sense of emotional safety with my partner and it took 10 years to work out what was going on. I discovered that our dynamic was textbook DA/Anxious. The bottom line is that my partner cannot provide what I was looking for. I stopped trying to manage him so that I would feel comfortable. My security and safety come from me now. I broke my part of the cycle and our relationship is going in the right direction. I hope this helps someone.

I say always or never all the time! I try not to, but I do say it I’m disappointed in myself for that
