YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFearful avoidants aren’t just triggered in romantic relationship, they can experience the same push-pull dynamic in friendships too.
At first, things feel exciting and safe. But when real emotional closeness starts to develop, it activates old fears:
😟 What if they expect too much from me?
😟 What if I can’t show up the way they want?
That’s when they pull away. Not because they don’t care, but because their attachment system is wired to see closeness as risk.
Have you ever felt someone slowly disappear from a friendship just as things were getting close?
