Disrespecting your partner is awful, but it’s particularly terrible when you do something that gives others the confidence to disrespect your partner too.

The theory doesn’t mean you should pour over your situationship’s texts and decide they’re avoidantly attached if they seem uninterested, nor should you dismiss your partner’s requests for intimacy as being anxious and needy. ilymag.com/2022/11/21/are-we…

Are We Putting Too Much Emphasis On Attachment Theory?

Relying on astrology and attachment theory to test compatibility within relationships shouldn’t overshadow your own intuition.

if someone pretends that you don’t exist when they’re upset with you, that is not an expression of love. people who care about you make sure you know you’re cared about - even in conflict.
