Do dismissive avoidants ever regret leaving?


Dismissive avoidants are known for suppressing emotions, pulling away from closeness, and avoiding vulnerability—but what happens when they realize they made a mistake after a breakup? In this episode of The Thais Gibson Podcast, Thais breaks down the most common patterns dismissive avoidants go through post-breakup, how they process regret, and whether they will reach out or avoid dealing with their emotions altogether.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔️ Why dismissive avoidants take longer to process regret after a breakup

✔️ The key signs a dismissive avoidant is realizing they made a mistake

✔️ Why they often don’t reach out—even when they miss you

✔️ How they suppress emotions to avoid feeling loss and vulnerability

✔️ What happens when they reflect on past relationships in hindsight

✔️ How to handle it if they do reach out (or if they don’t)

✔️ The difference between genuine regret vs. reaching out for comfort


If you’ve ever wondered, “Does my dismissive avoidant ex ever think about me?” or “Will they ever realize what they lost?”, this episode will help you understand their post-breakup mindset and what it means for your healing and closure.
