I was an FA. Most of us are damaged due to a traumatic event (emotional neglect in childhood, cheating in a relationship, et cetera). It is like borderline behavings we have, and have to heal (seek therapy) to receive and give genuine love because we are drifted away from the true definition of love.

This happens to me too as an FA, even if I'm much more secure... when I have strong feelings I freak out and want to run, but because I'm aware I don't run away, I isolate and fight those fears but if the partner writes/calls/wants to stay together, I come back immediately

​​​​@@bigbadlara5304 yes, the anxiety is there, I have like panic attacks and that's why I still isolate, I find it hard to even replay to messages/calls from people but if the guy I have strong feelings for reach out, I replay immediately and I start to calm down. I recently had this when I met this guy and we were so connected from the very start, like we have known each other since ever, and when we set the day for the first real date, I started panicking and I wanted to take the plane and disappear forever 😅 and I actually kind of disappeared for 3 days (but he didn't text me too in those 3 days), experiencing high level of anxiety and panic attacks, then the 4th day I went back to normal and reached out to him

💯 As a FA this is me to a t. The second he comes after me… I melt… I absolutely NEVER push him away and I NEVER lose respect for him. Him coming to me after I’ve pushed him away makes me love him MORE. We’ve been together for 17 years and married for 15. I’ve never understood why I was like this until now… I definitely have some work to do.

I think of the FA as having two different equations of state, so to speak, but only one being active at a time. When the closeness equation is satisfied, there is a switch to the distance equation, meaning you fail the latter. When you satisfy the distance equation, you fail the closeness one. Therefore, you are always failing one or the other. However, this mechanism appears to be skewed towards the distance end of the seesaw, evidenced by the DA's having a measure of success with the FA.

I agree with you. I'm a 27 year old FA who has never dated because my fears are neck and neck with my cravings for intimacy. Also, I "feel" a lot, so I never wanted to be responsible for someone else's heartbreaking. I could always imagine how dating me might be like because I've seen people do the push and pull to others. Heck, I've had it done to me in friendships. I'd rather be a full-time single with a clean record getting help than to pull someone into this mess and damage them. I hope you're healing okay. 😢❤

My ex was an FA and she totally blamed her self-abandonment on ME and just couldn’t comprehend the concept of prioritizing herself in her own decision-making process. She called me controlling bc I was better at setting boundaries and more direct about addressing the things that bothered me. Like it almost seemed like she never thought she was even allowed to voice her own concerns, or say no, and felt guilty about standing up for herself… to the point that she said “yes” when someone asked her on a date (while we were together) bc she “didn’t want to hurt his feelings” lol she never went on the date and never intended to, but still- they’re so careful to avoid confrontation that they ultimately hurt themselves in the process of trying to please everyone else. She also saw my unwillingness to self-abandon for her as a lack of effort and that it meant I didn’t actually love her. Meh I tried to help but if FAs aren’t interested in healing their relationship to self or don’t believe they need to, then just move on.

FA's are too much hassle for the healthy securely attached. i'm a secure and i wouldn't recommend other secures to put any substantial effort into a FA or risk losing yourself in the process. the on and off pull backs will drive you insane trying to maintain any degree of normalcy with a FA.
@SatieSatie
@SatieSatie Месяц назад
As an FA... fair enough. It doesn't do anyone good to pretend that being in a relationship with an unregulated FA or a true DA has _any_ kinds of advantages or benefits. In my experience, it's much, much more likely that FAs recognise their own (self-)destructive behavioral patterns and try to work on themselves (but most often than not fail since their attachment issues are the manifestation of hard-coded trauma stemming from violence and childhood abuse) vs. DAs. True DAs (aka the ones I usually end up with...) tend to see the problem in others and will rarely account for their own misbehavior; and if they do, they masterfully (and subconsciously) repress their own emotions and avoid _any_ kind of potential conflict until they (again subconsciously) convinced themselves that everything's better and _easier_ without _you_ around.

I know that it's wrong to give up on me just because I want something to work. I did this previously in my last relationship, and that FA defect alone caused me so much resentment, and anger. Thank you for pointing this out. I should be secure in being my individual self in any relationship, without abandoning my needs.

My partner is FA, I am a healing avoidant.

I do see over giving and I repeatedly remind him that I want to know what is important to HIM and that I never want him to sacrifice what is important to him for me. He’s in defense mode right now…. Thinks we are incompatible because we don’t agree on everything!

I recognize all of this. Especially the swing from codependent to fearful. Arguments started and I was accused of ignoring their needs but I could never get them to tell me what they wanted. I always heard, "Whatever you want, I'm ok with whatever." And also the, "One day you'll break up with me." The beginning phase really resembles love bombing. Eventually reaches devaluation and then a discard. It's very similar to a narcissistic style and many narcissists are FAs. But my FA had empathy. And he knew he was hurting me but he just couldn't stop. He even said he didn't know why he was hurting me. It ended a month ago. But he had been making his own plans for the future without me for months. I was pouring myself into an empty vessel that couldn't be filled by me. So we stopped. It wasn't a very clean breakup. By then I was angry and resentful at the projection and selfishness. And he was accusing me of not caring about his problems despite me abandoning myself for him (that lesson is learned). And this channel has helped along with therapy. But I mourn losing someone that has work to do that showed me what was possible for them but wasn't something he could maintain. He decided to run away from me and everything else happening.

@@Belgriffinite It had reached the point that I began to suspect bipolar two disorder. And a few people in here, it looks like with borderline personality disorder, have said they identify with this description. There's a Venn diagram of BP, CPTSD, and BPD with significant overlap so it's hard to tell. Childhood trauma is a really big creation point for this. And they really have to dig down and resolve it. But when something has become part of your identity resolving it means leaving that identity behind and they don't know who they are without this. And it's something they have to do and a lot of times it just doesn't happen because there is pain in processing those things that they are avoiding.

Thankyou, I can very much relate. Honestly? My ex was/is more covert narcissist than FA. She was supposedly in therapy for years before me and during our relationship. Supposedly “doing the work”. It never really got better, I just got more exhausted then resentful, then I just wanted peace. The day I broke it off, my life instantly became peaceful. She was constant drama and chaos. I’ve had relationships before and after. None had chaos or emotional manipulation like her. A narcissist that thinks they are an FA and has you convinced too? Horrible. I’ll never truly know as I’m sworn no contact forever to protect myself.
@remydrh

@@aaronsinspirationdaily4896 narcissists don't typically claim to be any sort of attachment style and if they did they would probably say they were secure because if there's a problem it's clearly someone else's. The tool bag a narcissist uses is designed to maximize deflection and that includes the gas lighting and projection. The biggest issue for a narcissist is the complete lack of empathy. And this typically is most noticeable in an argument. The reason mine was complicated is they were likely high functioning autistic for several reasons that are pretty specific and highly indicative and even they suspected the same. But you end up with what was referred to as the double empathy problem which may present itself as narcissism but it isn't. Many people who have terrible childhoods depending on the particulars may operate as a fearful avoidant. And many narcissists also had bad childhoods and that doesn't mean they're immune from being a fearful avoidant. A psychiatrist explained it pretty well, you have a climate and it influences the weather. Certain disorders would be the climate and then the weather would be the problem on top of it. A storm in two different climates will present themselves differently. So a narcissist and someone else can have the same storm but it may look different.

@@aaronsinspirationdaily4896 Good idea. Same thing with me. The most recent time I got together with a supposed FA, she said she had been in therapy for years. She told me she was an avoidant and I was an anxious. I had never heard of any of this. I realized we were not two sides of the same coin when I asked her flippantly near the very end after she had triggered me hard for days "Do you not understand anything about anxious attachers?" and she said completely honestly "No.. I'm not one so I have no idea" and I said "You told me I was one, haven't you done research on the topic, and learned about all the different kinds?" (Which is what I did for months when she told me about them) and she said she had never done that. Like wtf. You know enough to tell someone what attachment style they are, and to be in a relationship with one, but dont even bother to read a couple articles about how it works? That really opened my eyes to the fact she really only cared about her perfect, independent life with her friends and family and fuck everyone else. Really sad.

@eyeshadowlady
@eyeshadowlady Месяц назад
I was misdiagnosed as that too when I went to a psych hospital. They are pretty lazy about diagnosing it if there is a stereotypical behavior like cutting or being suicidal. This psychiatrist wrote off my prior diagnosis and denied my own experience to accommodate her (wrong) opinion. There are some similarities for sure, but some of the major components of BPD don't like up at all and are the antithesis of being FA. I think you could have someone with both and it would look different, but borderline is much more studied and widely known than attachment styles and a quick answer to whatever they might be seeing because you only have to meet I think 5 criteria for them to slap the label on. My regular therapist and psychiatrist strongly disagree with this diagnosis, so it isn't just me. Get a second opinion on this matter but wait until they have gotten to know you so they can make a more thorough analysis.

Someone criticizing my behaviour as a fearful avoidant does trigger the insecurity in me. However, when I feel that i am healing, i accepted those flaws and insecurities about me and I fought back with my needs and wants. I said(probably defensively): "I do agree that I am insecure and have a lot to work on my insecurities but I do not appreciate your behaviour towards me by criticizing and being defensive. I need understanding, patience, care and concern which I deserve and won't compromise on these values in the relationship I am looking for. If you are not in the place to provide what I need, thats your own issue to settle. I won't be settling for a relationship that does not provide healthy growth for each other in a loving way rather criticizing and pushing someone to the edge to fix their own bad habit/behaviour by themselves." I am part of being in my healing journey and I may not say the best words for now but I am doing the best interest for myself. I believe I am not trying to power control or giving ultimatum but setting my own boundary in this situation. Any thoughts?

For sure that triggered me as an anxious...i tried everything to fix the rl...but the more i tried the worse it got...just constant breadcrumbing...after 3 month of this dynamic...my power was empty...i broke up...i couldnt stand it anymore... Now a month ago we met again and dated regularly...she was really chasing me... always chatted with me...asked when to meet again...tried to impress me... From date to date we went more intimate...teasing...then teasing and cuddling...and then suddenly immediately cuddling...having sex... so on... I would say i was only reactive...i didnt chase her becuz last time it burned me...its like i have a ptsd... the thought of being vulnerable to give in advance...triggers me... On the last weekend we talked about our anxieties... i told her that i think i have developed some sort of fear of commitment... and that could be the reason why it seems that im playing some games some times...its unconscious. We dated last friday and sunday...cuddling...sex. On last tuesday i asked her to drive to burger king...she agreed...it was about 10 o clock pm... after bk i asked her to hang out at the water for maybe maximum one hour... she denied becuz she said she had to go to bed becuz work... This last date tuesday felt so weird...i couldnt feel any insecureness about her anymore...she no longer paid attention to what she was saying and seemed less eager to please me. She took my hand without any fear of rejection...that felt strange! And since last weekend our chatting dynamic changed too. She is no longer sending me tons of messages the whole day, when im not at my phone...she no longer tries to keep the conversation going when i dont answer...no permanent asking when meeting again... whats up here? Was it a mistake to get intimate although it felt good at the moment? Does she now feel "Certainty and thinks im a sure thing" and attraction is dwindling now? Do i have to play games? Dont understand... She wants connection cuddling and stuff and when she gets it, it bores her? Or am i just hypersensitive becuz i burned myself badly at her one time? This "pulling back of her" now triggers my deepest anxiety and by ptsd. Is her pulling back just normal because she feels more safe?

Make him understand through direct words that you are still there and forgive him and you can talk about it and work things out at his pace. Let us know how it goes! Good luck!

@@bxmully I saw what he showed me at the beginning, I saw all his fears coming up and through his stories I can understand where they came from, I'm FA too and was like him too in the past, even though not at this extent 😅 so I even understand what is going on inside him, he opened up to me about a lot of vulnerable things no one else knows about, so I guess he actually felt safe in a way, but he is too addicted to chaos, his life rotates around his toxic family, his job (he is a paramedic, so basically there is chaos all the time) and his last and only relationship, for what he managed to tell me before becoming too much emotional, was a mess. I prefere to say those things in person (that I'm still here, I understand what he is going through, etc) because I want to see his reaction and be sure he hears them, so hope he will show up again in his usual way soon. So for now I'm going to wait until the NC ends and in the meantime I'm working on myself through PDS to learn to communicate without being a bull 😅 (I'm a fighter and usually approach problems with lots of strength but he is so soft and sensitive and can't handle this approach) and on some fears I still have to have more tools. He should be in therapy, at least last time he showed up he told me that he was and that he has "garbage" inside him

What above said does work, but be wary depending on what caused them to shut down it may take 2 months or more. Its not impossible but heck I used that time to focus on my healing even if it was frustrating getting full on ignored at times. But yes if they can see youre not a threat and youre willing to make amends while trying to respect their needs they will stick around, especially if theyre already aware of their attachment style.

He could’ve had anything he wanted. I just didn’t know what it was, and he would disappear randomly. That was set up my anxiety for anxious attachment. Before I had awareness, and I knew we were getting stuck in a pattern that was unconscious, and he denied being avoidant, but I didn’t know how to explain. It wasn’t his fault. Anyway, what a mess, very painful learning experience that I wonder when I will have peace I think it is better to have not loved in this case or ever that experience the destruction of what we call love, I see my role in the process and wish I could have a do over, if we both gave each other a little it would’ve been fine. All I needed was reassurance, hey, I’m overwhelmed I’ve gotta disappear, but I love you, No Issues and we will talk later. I would’ve had given him anything he wanted. I just needed to know it was coming. Tried to prevent sudden, traumatic. Abandonment, I blame myself it happened anyway

You may have done a vid on this. I am wondering how you knew you were a fearful avoidant. What made you research, seek help and beat the suruation. Do you ever have relapses into the fearful days ? If someone is too proud to even admit when they are wrong . I tend to think they are unreachable.

Is there an attachment type that would explain why someone sees multiple people at a time because that way they can't really be abandoned? My friend even sees other women when he has a long-term girlfriend, but she was informed that he'll probably see other women, which he actually does, but at least is discreet about it. In fact, he's up front about this with all the women he sees. It's like he's in a one-sided open relationship with women who want him to be monogamous. He claims he cares about them and doesn't want to hurt anyone, but no single woman was ever enough. He says he's never been in love, and he's not even sure he's capable of it. He does suspect this probably has something to do with his parents. He was abandoned by his mother at the age of five to go live with his dad, and then his dad went on to remarry and divorce a ridiculous amount of times, so there's definitely poorly patterned relationships and abandonment issues.

Looking for an explanation for why this thought process happens, not advice on that I leave or not FA attacher is distraught about thoughts about being with someone else, no one in particular, but has these thoughts of “if I am actually happy, why do I suddenly think about what it’d be like with someone else, to feel the chase, the new, flirting again” which turns them off from being intimate …but is still turned on by me, and acknowledges that I’m up for trying new things …so why these thoughts? Is this because there isn’t enough chaos in our relationship so it doesn’t feel safe? I’m getting to close and see the real him and leave him anyways?

It's probably a way of pushing you away so they don't have to be vulnerable and really attach to you. The chasing time is a lot easier because you don't have to really invest and change and you have this fantasy and not really a full and imperfect person yet. Real relationships aren't fantasies and won't live up to them, and require deeper vulnerability. So this is someone who is feeling unsure about committing because you may not be someone they will want forever or who will want them forever and they are probably thinking they need to find this absolutely perfect nonexistent person before they feel "sure" it's worth sticking around, because they don't want their heart broken or to break your heart maybe, if this is really FA. Buuuuuut it might not be FA. Either way, it makes you feel like you aren't enough for them and they are outright TELLING you they think they can do better. Right?? That's where I go mmm, not sure it's worth it here. They are being pretty open about this for an FA. Lock down that heart and you need to draw a line here. I will give you a week and if you aren't sure about me, I'm out and then you can have fun chasing whoever you want. 🙄 If it's an FA and not someone being toxic, this will wake them up.

I love your videos, but if I can make one suggestion-maybe don’t have cut scenes of random couples. Just stay on you cause honestly that’s all we need and seeing the couples smiling and happy while discussing some tough relationship issues is a bit triggering. I think it’s effective without the cut scenes of random actors smiling or crying together. You and your information is enough.

Ya. I agree. The people are unrelatable. Also the dramatic music and fearing tone feels like there is something wrong with the unsecure attachment. Her tone has changed and her older videos are more warmer and more welcoming

He didn’t pour into anything but himself. He showed a lot of care and consideration towards somebody. He supposedly hates and somebody who rejected him. They are a match made in hell I wish I could tell her Fiancé and she’ll do it to him too. But it perpetuates his belief of unworthiness.

Why don’t they just do what they have to do until they can make a relationship a priority that is in line with both partners. Why do we have to shift and mold and push and we do it and they’re still not happy, at the end of the day they need to just stop destroying people and recognize.

Such a distorted, thinking process let me cause the problem now, so it doesn’t happen later.
