In this week's hotline episode, we dive deep into the complex world of attachment styles. We’ll be unpacking: Why do I keep attracting avoidant partners and feel blindsided by them when the relationship ends?  As someone anxiously attached, why do I consistently find myself attracting avoidant partners? Should I consider continuing a relationship with an avoidant partner after being strung along for years on end? Throughout this episode, we break down the science and psychology behind why some individuals seem magnetically drawn to avoidant partners. We also explore the anxious-avoidant dynamic, examining its paradoxical nature as well as delving into strategies and insights for making a relationship with an avoidant partner work.  Got a burning question about your love life?
