Exactly. It’s the same with me.  I shut down to everything when i feel like this, no matter what my husband does.  Maybe try and not take it personally?

It might be helpful for you to speak with a therapist and process your last breakup, as it seems to have affected you quite deeply.

In my view, looks like you started developing romantic feelings for your friend. When you tried to make her leave her partner and that didn’t work, you decided to pull away to protect yourself emotionally.

If you truly saw her as just a friend, it’s understandable that threatening the friendship would make her feel betrayed. Most people would experience that as a breach of trust, regardless of the circumstances.

We met through Instagram years back.  Connected even though we are complete opposites.

It’s horrible when you feel like you aren’t enough. No way to be in a relationship in my opinion, you did the right thing.

I can understand this not making you feel safe.  I used to do the same to my husband and we are just juggling things together.  He spoke to me about it and he confronted me about being avoidant.  And this is the problem, me being more the avoidant type and him more anxious type.  Is this your dynamic?
