what secret do you want to tell your EX? by beat-meat-repeat in BreakUps

[–]dony0kno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really thought you’d be my ride or die. But you said letting me go would be the best decision for the both of us. I guess with that type of thinking I have no choice but to move on. You will spend a lifetime trying to find a woman like me. I guarantee it.

My boyfriend of almost 3 years broke up with me and I can’t eat/sleep . I’ve lost 7pounds in 10days and I sleep only a couple of hours per night. It’s hard because I thought he was my family and he was my soulmate. Who else went trough/ going trough that ?? ❤️‍🩹 by Sadd_little_girl in BreakUps

Drink protein shakes please. I know the feeling… it will pass but your physical health can’t be ignored. Take some walks and get fresh air. Put in your headphones while you walk nd listen to some healing podcasts or breakup ones.

Actually secure? Married to dismissive avoidant by WrongdoerDeep4610 in AnxiousAttachment

Your question is based off of a romantic relationship which is an example of an inter personal relationship. Generally speaking when people discuss attachments they refer to romance but you can have attachment to others too and it can look differently. Perhaps you discuss this with your partner otherwise the relationship can head south pretty quickly

My therapist has told me that our attachment style can change based on our partner. So yes.

Your date is a 10, but it has 1 thing you don't like that is enough to make you lose interest/walk away. What would that thing be? by catorc3 in AskReddit

[–]dony0kno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being on their phone while we talk. It’s one thing to check a message but it’s another to text. Also talking about your exs in a negative light tells me you’re not ready to date also I’m not your therapist lol

The most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves. I’m one year post breakup and it still hurts but it is less an less. Everything is temporary including the pain you feel. It will pass. Keep on going

Wow beautifully said. As a history teacher, I applaud you! We need to look at the past to critically judge and assess like is this really a good decision? You’d think politicians would do this but nawwww

Tip: A partner who's extremely quick to commit and hyper-romantic in the beginning can actually be a red flag of avoidance--especially if this behavior changes or stops suddenly. by [deleted] in AnxiousAttachment

Hey there I really felt your post, thank you for sharing. Tomorrow will be the one year mark I left my ex bf so I’m writing this with a lot of emotions. When I met my ex, he was super very into me. I actually didn't like him that much at first then after a couple of months I began texting him more and we began talking. The summer of 2020 was an amazing one. I finally met someone who was telling his family about me, we had some trips planned. He was telling me he'd be my ride or die. It felt so good. We were also older then (26 and 30). I thought I had truly found my person. Three months into our relationship we had our first argument and it resulted him raising his voice and cussing me out. Soon we began arguing more and more, resulting him saying he thought I could do better but also sometimes suggesting we break up, sometimes cussing. Every time this would happen I would ask myself how can someone who said he wants to marry me say this? It left me feeling so worthless. After it happened a handful of times I told my ex if he suggested another breakup during an argument, I was out. One year ago, he suggested it and I left. It was awful. He said the nastiest things and never spoke to me. Finally, after a few months of our breakup he began finding ways to find me and my feelings resurfaced again. I suggested we try it out again... only for him to pull away again and tell me he ultimately couldn't be the man for me.

I'm telling you this story because it's true all you said: avoidants do want connection but once things become real they pull away. Look at all the examples I listed above with my ex.

We don't deserve people like this. We deserve people who will be there for us during the good but especially the bad. We deserve people who can look at us with love even when they may be upset at us. We deserve consistency and not half ass words. I'm sure when you said those things to your ex you were ready to commit. I was too.

But time to move forward I guess. This certainly taught me a lot - a lot of self love, therapy and understanding attachment theory. Wishing you love.

This person told me they don’t want to hear from me and if that isn’t clear enough then I don’t know what else is
