Manage episode 451292864 series 3548740
Ever felt like your partner just needs too much space, or maybe you're the one pulling away when things get too close? In today’s episode of Speak Honest, we’re diving into the fascinating rhythm of avoidant attachment—what I like to call “The Solo Tango.” Avoidant attachment is all about independence, self-reliance, and finding comfort in a little distance. If you're wondering why intimacy might feel overwhelming or how to bring closeness into a relationship without pushing someone too far, this episode is for you! I’ll share insights on the roots of avoidant attachment, what it looks like in real-life relationships, and my favorite scripts for building connection with an avoidant partner without pressure. Let’s explore how to bring a balanced rhythm into your dance of connection.
