Avoidant Attachment in Love: Why You’re Drawn to Him & How to Break the Cycle

If you’ve ever loved an avoidant man and felt confused, anxious, or emotionally exhausted, this episode is for you.

In today’s deep dive into avoidant attachment, we unpack attachment theory, the anxious-avoidant dynamic, and what actually happens inside the nervous system when closeness triggers withdrawal. This is not a “fix him” episode — it’s about understanding attachment styles so you can make empowered, secure decisions in love.

I break down the difference between dismissive avoidant vs. fearful avoidant attachment, why secure and anxious women are often magnetically drawn to avoidant partners, and how the push-pull cycle keeps repeating. You’ll also learn practical tools for navigating avoidant attachment dynamics without abandoning yourself.

If you’re navigating anxious attachment, avoidant attachment in relationships, or wondering whether to stay or walk away, this conversation will give you clarity and grounded perspective.
