Avoidant love to me is like this…
The closer I get to them, the more I feel like I’m a burden. The more I feel like they’ll want to leave me, that they’d be better off with anyone else, that they’ll get annoyed when they realize I won’t be able to meet their expectations of a normal relationship, and the more terrified I am of being discarded.
”Never ready to kiss or hug or do anything more. When will you ever be ready?”
It’s like I can see it in their faces…
The more you like them, the more you feel those emotions, and the more you want to avoid them. You know you wouldn’t be able to handle it if they chose to end it with you, so you push them away first....selfishly and cowardly.
And that’s what I do, avoid, again and again. Nothing ever changes because I’ve already accepted the consequences for pushing people away a long time ago.
