Are you dating someone who seems emotionally distant, withdraws when things get serious, or struggles with intimacy? Understanding dismissive avoidant attachment can completely shift how you navigate these challenges in your relationship.

In this episode of The Thais Gibson Podcast, we dive deep into what it’s really like to date a dismissive avoidant—why they behave the way they do, the root causes of their fear of intimacy, and how to create a healthier, more secure connection.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔️ Why dismissive avoidants often struggle with commitment and emotional intimacy

✔️ How childhood experiences shape their avoidance patterns

✔️ Common triggers that cause them to shut down in relationships

✔️ How to communicate effectively and build trust

✔️ What dismissive avoidants actually need in a relationship

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why does my partner push me away?” or “Can a dismissive avoidant ever change?”, this episode will give you the insights and tools to better understand and navigate your relationship.
