I feel you. I’ll give you my experience as a FA then suggestions. - I also transitioned from anxious to avoidant our the years. I was never full on AA but more anxious leaning FA as a child. Now I l…
Yes I agree it’s an important topic. My issue with how you’re addressing it is that you’re creating some sort of behavior hierarchy that simply doesn’t exist. I’m not AP, for the record. I am in the…
Irritating the ones you love, polysecure (because it deals with a lot of attachment education), women who love too much, polyvagal theory and exercises, legit anything to do with different therapies— …
But why is it then relevant for non anxious folks to tell anxious folks stuff? That happens here all the time. I mean genuinely it’s really fascinating to see the dynamics of these types play out in…
To me, the book doesn’t so much denigrate avoidants as it highlight their challenges in relationships, to help anxious types recognize patterns and seek stability—often with secure partners as an idea…
Thanks for your opinion on my 10% figure. Besides that, I did not say partners should be at my convenience. I said other aspects of life can throw a relationship’s typical patterns out of balance. Ha…
I recently went on a first date with someone who brought me a bouquet of flowers after meeting me for only 6 minutes at an event, and then after this first coffee date, texted me to say they brought …
Yeah - I'm not so much interested in learning about the different 'types' of attachment, and I've gotten a lot better about not feeling shame about my feelings towards my therapist. I think in these c…
You’re speaking about avoidant *women* as a whole. “The more you try to communicate about the relationship the more they hate you.” You’re not venting about a specific ex, you’re not-so-subtly bashing…
The thing is, with certain types of people you cannot afford to feel empathy because it will just be used against you. The same person begging on their knees for you not to leave them can be the same …
You are correct. Your perception of love is warped. And thus it can be really hard finding it without accidentally finding yourself in shit relationships. As many have commented, avoidants typically …
What a wise comment, thank you for this! This is reframing things for me. I’ve been hard on myself for falling for these types after thinking I should have spotted them better, but you’re right. They …
I think this is running the course of over pathologizing. Attachment styles are not personality types. They are trauma responses that are triggered by relationships of many kinds. Not wanting a relati…
I think the attachment styles in place work well. I know it was studied exhaustively on thousands of children in the 70s/80s/90s and had there been more definitive styles we would have caught them bac…
https://github.com/glacion/cdktf-typescript-crd I could do with some crds especially aws stuff
No straight simple answer to this. It depends on your data volume, schema, usage patterns (IE: read Vs write ratios, types of select queries), whether it's ok to serve stale data in some cases etc etc…
This is the first I'm seeing about the Backstage platform, it seems like it can do a lot, and is pretty extensible. Considering the tool belt seems to revolve around Typescript, it's giving me the imp…
Man, this post hits SO hard. Running a business is absolutely brutal, and I think we need more honesty about the real toll it takes on founders. I've gone through some of these exact same experiences…

Why not capitalize on the app you’ve built? Theres a lot of controversy in this comment section but it seems like there is an interest/need for something like this when it comes to attachment types
Thanks for sharing your story. What types of prompts did you give the AI to soften your communication to you DA? Also, will you make your app available to the public?
The depth of their reflections if you ask them about previous relationships, how they healed, what they want from a partner, relationship with parents… etc How they feel around children: if they’re …
I see your point, but another watchout is my recent ex did go to therapy (which I took as a green flag) but he ended up having a fling with the therapist afterward (huge red flag) and the only takeawa…

Before I say anything else, I want to say that there's no excuse for abuse, including emotional abuse. Ever. I'm sorry to hear you've experienced that. I also don't think an anxious person should sac…
Would you be able to advise on helpful types of prompts? I have also heard that ChatGPT can help but was not sure where to start. Just like, describe a situation where I shut down, tell ChatGPT I have…
Childhood trauma doesn't always look like yelling or hitting; people mistake this a lot. You can have a lovely attentive parent who still didn't teach you emotional regulation, sent you in time out in…
Attachment issues only appear because of a relational issue at some point in life. It's not innate, you're not born with it (even if people can have certain tendencies) and it only exists in the act o…
I understand the thought patterns here, and I definitely see how expectations are triggering for avoidant types. But I've also found many of them project what they assume my expectations are onto me? …
>Why can't they stop experiencing love like they say they do and start experiencing it like I think they should??? Because they clearly know best for all avoidants of course! They read a psychology t…
Seems like a person who got spooked and having escaped unscathed has calmed down, reflected, and realized that perhaps their anxiety was irrational. And that is a good indicator that when times get to…
Woah. This guy. He’s one of those hot and cold types. That reels people back in all for the sake of spitting them out. Ghost him. Disappear.
From what I heard, that's the types of relationships Avoidants like. There's no pressure for vulnerability or emotional closeness. It's also why they can be fine with sexual encounters but pull away f…
You assume wrong, I’m a woman and friend is. It’s a platonic relationship. Close friendships also involve attachment, it’s not strictly a romantic thing. I’m not unattached from my friend, I just am …
I do a DBT Skills practice called Wise Mind where I write about the triggering event. Then I write out all my feelings about it. Then I write out all my thoughts about it. Then I look for places where…
Just want to add that the ONLY thing that will work with a person with these types of issues is constant accountability from within and without, not coddling or enabling. That’s bad even for the pers…
I think it depends on what you want. If your boyfriend is FA and he doesn't know how to regulate his feelings then the exact thing that he would do is breakup/ghost you when he started to become emot…
I personally have always offered at least some simple explanation. I’ve felt that much need for social acceptance in terms of my “honor”, and respect for others. I’m in my forties, and whether it’s ge…
Eh. The DA runs deep. I also have plans and thinking around leaving at a certain date in the future. Everything is always in the moment. I could drop the ball and fall back into my ways at any time. R…
Your description reads like a 26 yo who leans securely attached with the ability to flex to meet their partner where they’re at. The symbiosis part was most ppl I knew at 26 rather than unique. But I …
Hey, thanks for the reply. I'll do my best to answer as precisely as possible > 1. You say you’re in the state of “I could get up, but I do not want to.” This means you’re not fully relaxed or in th…
We anxious types tend to loose our self in relationships. We give up our self worth and self regulation and let the relationship do that for us. Then when the relationship feels the least bit threaten…
I'd be curious what's going on with the guys you date that pull away after a few months. The knee-jerk reaction you describe is useful information but it would be more useful to see if you're somehow …

I don't think there's a "circle jerk" in the avoidant attachment sub. I've read and genuinely benefitted from seeing how the group helps each other comprehend their reactions and attempt from a place …
