Have you ever felt that gut-wrenching moment when someone you care about pulls away? You’re left questioning everything from what you did wrong, why this always seems to happen, and if it’s somehow all your fault. But what if the reason had nothing to do with you?

Are your expectations in love setting you up for heartbreak? If you identify as an anxious attacher, your ideas about love and relationships might not be as "normal" as you think. This episode isn’t about dismissing what you deserve, it’s about redefining realistic expectations in relationships.

From craving constant reassurance to feeling like you should always be someone's top priority, these expectations can keep you trapped in a cycle of overthinking, disappointment, and emotional overwhelm. But what if your experience of love isn’t a reflection of reality? What if it’s a reflection of your attachment style?
