Wish I knew this stuff 4 months ago lol. I did everything wrong, the letters, the constant reaching out, showing up to her house. None of it works. I’m currently doing no contact with my avoidant ex hoping it works. She did reach out to say happy birthday so I guess I can take that as a good sign.

All of my ex's have come back to me after no contact. Sometimes a year later! Never did any name calling, raise my voice, or do much chasing. I'm not perfect but a lot of the times they leave because of something small and built up resentment. It was never because I did anything over the top (like my parents). I go back to these videos to remind myself this. I'm now 1.5 months in with no contact. I don't hold any bitterness. This woman goes way beyond my values but I had an insane connection and she was smokin HOT. Anyways, going no contact in the past made me realize that we were just not meant for each other and makes you reevaluate how much integrity you hold to your own values

It's not easy to be with an avoidant. I've been there. It's an emotional rollercoaster. They need to be aware and go to therapy. Stop hoping for them to come back, you'll just be stuck. Move on, heal and you'll attract a secure partner.
@SNicole822 ай бұрын
I’m not sitting and waiting on anyone to come back around when they’re ready like I’m something you put on a shelf and come play with it when you’re ready. My avoidant ex and I broke up 2 months ago and I have been no contact. I’m personally not reaching out and he needs to see a therapist before he talks to me. I don’t think we will ever work out because I personally don’t have the capacity to deal with an avoidant unless they are doing some kind of healing. It’s too unfair to my emotional health.

But what if they are avoidant and have depression? Even more no contact? haha! Well at least it gives me extra time to work on myself! woo! My ex told me that the feelings of love scared her and that I was a perfect partner, so most likely a fearful avoidant, well its been 5 months, I'm now open to meeting other people, but I'd like to at least keep the door open, but that relationship only lasted 4 months, so I just wish her well at this point and hope she finds someone better for her. Also I feel called out by Victoria here! haha! 11:20, but absolutely correct! 👍

How can they process their grief and if they need their space, why do they move on with a rebound?

Because the rebound is a superficial relationship that gives them dopamine and distracts them from processing their feelings about the break-up.

@MsPatriot4202 ай бұрын
No, sir! What is key for having anything ever with a Dismissive Avoidant is that they get the serious counseling they need to function properly in a relationship. Everyone needs to be in endless NO CONTACT and sit alone in grief for who knows how long just to be with this person? That's frankly just arrogance, not low self-esteem. I've heard plenty about how Dismissive Avoidants love and are used to people chasing them and when someone they are involved with doesn't they are shocked by it. Yes, I'm sure it's a real blow to their ego! But, what about the effect this has on a normal person?? Is this good for their future? It isn't!! Why should the rest of us live our lives in this miserable way? I and my siblings had a terrible childhood - worse than just having our feelings ignored! Other people I've spoken to have also, but we don't neglect, abuse, and trash people never looking in the rear view mirror. I believe most of these people know they have a problem and refuse to do the work. NO PASS.

Currently going through a breakup. 2 weeks in. There’s been contact because he wants to still be friends, but yet he’s an avoidant and only texts me “Have a nice day. Bless you. Thank you.” It’s getting really annoying. I’ve been watching your content and it’s been helping. Thank you. Also, yes I am anxious attachment style. My question is when they even apply that type of needing total space in the relationship how do I navigate that if I personally need communication? I will add that I am working on becoming secure and I have taken to heart you saying that in able to have a healthy relationship with a secure person, that I have to become more secure than they are.

@CraigNeverSunday2 ай бұрын
Ask yourself do you truly want to be friends with him? or are you only accepting friendship because you will do anything to keep him? If its the latter, I suggest going into no contact, The fact is he broke it off because he is prioritizing his own needs and not taking yours into account, so he won't be able or willing to meet your need for communication, even as a friend - take the time to heal and work on yourself and let him come to you when he is ready to have a real conversation, by then he will be able to see the queen you have become. 👍

This is nice video and informative. I’m in strategic no contact with an avoidant and i’m (anxious style)anyhow due to kids, marriage etc, for over 2months now just now recently in the last two weeks i’ve noticed some softness on his end like letting me know when he’s back in town from work trip because he keeps our daughter while i’m at work a couple days a week. He works from home. So he messages me now to let me know when he’s back in town and that be it. I say ok welcome back. He recently bought me a pair of sneakers. I says thank you, when he messages me I respond in a nice way. However I don’t message him first it’s only in reference to our kid. But now it seems he’s gone cold. I wonder why? I get the feeling he expects me to reach out to him and he sees I’m not he’s like backed away, no pics of our daughter while he has her or no communication like he’s been doing he stopped.

I have never begged or pleaded but until last year I finally found love and I may have tried to seek reassurance when she was being distant and that's caused problems. Only ever had one ex get back intouch and I was the dumper and it was after 10 years and during my recent no contract journey! Weird! 😂 I really need to set myself a time limit because I'm still hooked on her after a whole year but she's not said anything. Understandable her mother is a controlling narc and wants her to remain single. This behaviour is an offense under UK statutes I hope my ex takes legal action and heals from this! ❤❤❤

Told them iv been pursued by many ppl in no contact but i gave no hope to anyone and im not interested in knowing anyone at this time im healing. They said same . They said they are not interested in that person and they will tell that person they are not interested.but after that they flirted again and then they had lost a member of the family a bit far not really close since when they told me they are till now disappeared again...

See the problem is that you’re focusing on her rather than your healing process and be able to detach yourself from her. It’s very important to try to move on emotionally before she even try to consider to come back. She have to feel the fear that your moving on and you should emotionally move on. Do your activities and let the time be on your side and surly she will feel your absence if there was any serious relationship and you were a great partner. My ex broke up with me July 2024 and I’m in healing process and not thinking of her anymore, but I’m sure she still got feelings for me and I’m in positive mindset and trying my best to detach myself completely for her to come back. You should do the same thing. I hope this helped you a little bit. Best of luck✨
