Ever dated someone who gave you butterflies on Monday and emotional frostbite by Friday?
This episode peels back the layers on avoidant attachment -that seductive cocktail of charm, distance, and disappearing acts. We’ll explore how avoidants often crave intimacy until they actually feel it… then suddenly remember they have to reorganize their sock drawer.
Expect:
The psychology behind the hot–cold dance
Why they ghost, stonewall, or say “I’m just not ready”
What it triggers in you — and how not to lose yourself trying to fix them
This isn’t a witch hunt. It’s a spotlight. And if you’ve ever mistaken anxiety for chemistry or stoicism for strength - this one’s for you.
