RE: DA vs. FA deactivation: In my experience, DAs deactivate any time there's a conflict where they're not getting their way or over an issue brought up by the other person. When this happens enough, the DA deactivates hundreds of little times on a daily basis until their partner can't take it anymore and leaves, or the DA just lives in their narrative about the relationship instead of checking in to the reality and deactivates themselves right out the door. On the other hand, FAs usually lean in to their anxious side with a DA and activate over and over trying to fix the relationship until they're fed up with continually being disregarded. Then they deactivate with a hard shutdown and decide that they're done putting *any* work into this relationship until the DA proves themselves by making up for all the one-sidedness the FA feels. If the DA doesn't take that cue to pick up the slack and restore balance, the FA is done forever. Even if they stay after that point, (like for the kids) they're pretty much checked out of the relationship for good.

What's weird to me is how my DA's perception can twist and be thrown back at me to become my fault. Like his memories change to fit his narrative. Almost like his mind cannot accept the truth, so it makes something up so that he doesn't face his core wounds of being in the wrong and being accountable for it. It's amazing (as you commented before) how many narcissistic tendencies DAs have. When I came to PDS, I was trying to figure out whether he was a narcissist or DA. I come to find that narcs do things intentionally, and DAs do them subconsciously. Then I sat back and thought - I can't read his mind, so I don't know if he's intentionally doing these things. The one thing he does have is empathy, so that may be the indication that he isn't a narc??? I don't know. All I know is it's so dang frustrating dealing with him. LOL

@@aspegel5281 Seriously, just run from DAs altogether. It's not even worth TRYING to make it work, the juice simply is not worth the squeeze. Unless the DA is actively working their ass off to become a former DA- which they will not do just because you ask them- there is only one way to win with a DA and that's to completely abandon everything you need and want in a relationship and accept that you'll never get any of it from them. The FA or AP partner does all the work while the DA sits back and demands their way. Any time they don't get their way they hold the whole relationship hostage by disappearing until they "feel better." It's like having a relationship with a spoiled toddler. They have absolutely no room for another person's existence, feelings, or needs whatsoever, so don't bother thinking you'll be able to resolve conflicts with them- they'll just turn anything you say around on you and make it all about them. It doesn't matter what a good communicator you are, anything that confronts their behavior in even the gentlest way is "criticism" in their world. They'll sulk their way through Christmases, birthdays, and events that are important to you or simply not show up at all if they "don't feel like it," punishing you for "making them go" if they do show up. Promises they make disappear into thin air as soon as those promises become inconvenient to how they feel or what they want, but don't dare hold them to their word because you're "not respecting their space." They spend the entire relationship competing with you and preoccupied with their "space," never appreciating the relationship at all, but then getting mad at you when you stop giving. They take and take all of the love you have to give and give nothing back. When the FA or AP finally starts setting firmer boundaries and telling the DA "no" to doing all the work in the relationship, the DA gets vindictive and spiteful and sabotages everything, leaving their exhausted partner to clean up their messes while they walk away with no consequences or remorse. Many times they will pull stunts like moving out without telling you or just ghost you altogether. However they leave, it will be like you never mattered to them at all. And you will never ever get an apology or any accountability from a DA. Not ever. FAs and APs, do yourselves a favor and just heal yourself, then go find someone secure. Leave DAs to work their shit out alone- or with each other. If you're going to bang your head against that wall trying to make it work with a DA you might as well just go be with a narcissist. There isn't much of a difference.

@@aspegel5281 we are told that narcissists do crappy things knowingly, but I disagree. Narcissists are incredibly lacking in self awareness, and depending on how they see themselves, they are likely incapable of perceiving that they’re ever in the wrong. It makes victims of narcissistic abuse feel better to think that the narcissist is some evil, malevolent monster who is totally in control of what they’re doing. Some may be, but most are not. If they do something objectively terrible, it’s because they had no choice; you made them do it. They wouldn’t have done it if you had been a better person(in their minds).

I am most definitely FA. I deactivate so quickly and so easily that I've been told you can see the change in my face. It's a self defence mechanism to prevent getting hurt....as soon as feelings become too intense, I get scared that it will end. I mistakenly think that I'm better off alone. I didn't realize any of this until this summer, because of my involvement with another FA. It has also held me back in my career and my studies. there are so many things I could have done if I had believed in myself, but I never felt like I was enough or had the ability to cope.

Human condition. I heard a another quote the other day: “It’s possible for your parents to have done the best that they knew how to do AND for their approach to have really messed you up or caused you legitimate pain”.

Definitely seeing a DA/FA mix in myself. A lot of this makes so much sense to me now. One thing I do want to understand better is the idea of opening up. I have recently been talking to someone outside of my relationship and it has felt so easy to open up to them, they just listen and aren't constantly trying to correct or interject. It is like being seen for the first time. I never feel like I can fully open up like this in my relationship as I constantly feel ashamed for feeling the way I do. Sometimes I do not express myself at all because, well I shut down like the video explains. Now, since I have been watching more of these videos and also doing a lot of self-work. I am opening up to my partner more as well, but it does not feel as easy. I feel like by expressing myself fully I am potentially hurting their feelings or just not being seen. I have in the past tried opening up as a DA to this person, but either been ignored or they didn't even hear me and change the subject. I constantly see myself wanting to go talk to the other person as I do not feel the fear of judgement/feeling invisible. Amazing videos and I am just about ready to jump on the courses.

But I will not dwell on the past and just say how lucky I am to have found you ( actually my da shared u with me.. or the irony) .. I am learning to be secure and have a ton of childhood trauma. Had a beautiful DA bf who left Canada just before the border closures for his home in the USA and I was just so fearful that I wouldn’t let him talk to me .. basically the closure secured a nail in the coffin .. here I am 2 years later and I finally told him I love him and I’m sorry .. well he ghosted me and told me I was too late .. here I am fully present in real time not Covid time anymore .. realized my anger was really love never indifference..

At the same time, every time I watch a video, I am so incredibly triggered and I become aware of just how damaged I am and why my relationships are at a standstill. But… While I was watching this one today, I had a tiny sliver like a light coming through the crack of the door… Little tiny breakthrough: and that is, that I am willing to come out of my hiding place or my shut down zone, if I can just come up with one expression of what I feel safe saying or sharing or expressing to someone I am trying to heal with. Mainly these are family members. I’ve got half of it figured out, I’m trying to rebuild new memories with them so the old ones aren’t dominant … But that is still coming from a place that is very guarded and not authentic, completely anyway… I continue to watch your videos and the only reason I haven’t started the course, as I have this strange fear or feeling that it would make me feel even more distant from the people I am trying to heal with …❤️

This explains that even though I show up more AP in my romantic relationships, why my FA is stronger right now. I'm ending NC with my DA right now, after our first ever relationship break down. So I'm going to give things one and I mean ONE fair chance at working together. I have my boundaries set and logically I know I can see if he's willing to show up and do the work or not. But because I have no freaking clue if he's gonna show up or not. (I have zero proof either way from him directly, and there aren't any factors that push him strongly in the type of DA that would be willing to grow or not as of yet. ) my FA strongly wants to push away. It doesn't know if he will be willing to work on things or not, and if he'll follow through or even if he'll reciprocate my attempt at re-contact to try again. We'll see. Still gonna give it one fair shot if he's up for it. And I'm fine with it working or not working. But I see my FA is in charge instead of AP. I want to de-tach form him 'cause I just... don't know what to expect. So I naturally wanna be less attached and back off. Well, that and given it's nearly been 2 months (7 weeks to be exact), that's when APs tend to want to move on. Even more reason that I'm less engaged. Meanwhile DA's typically only start processing things about 6 weeks in. He still deserves a chance to grow in case he's the kind of DA that is willing. And I'll give it one fair shot for me so I can go knowing I tried my best guilt free. Thanks for explaining to me how my FA side is trying to pull me away since I just... don't have any trust or knowledge.

Hard to say, because I'm not sure exactly what you said to her. Maybe the abuse from her partner was something she became accustomed to - so she doesn't take it so deeply. I've even grown cold to my friend calling me a crazy bitch when he's pissed at me, because he has said it so many times that it doesn't even phase me. Whereas my AP friend pointed out that it's abusive and I shouldn't allow it. I agreed with her - but it also made me realize how dead I have become to his abuse. Since you don't normally talk that way to her, maybe it felt more offensive? In fact, my AP friend even said, "If I called you a crazy bitch, you would probably not want to be friends with me." She's right - I probably would be more offended by her saying it, because she doesn't talk to me like that.

She can stay avoidant for half a week or a couple of days more just by a disagreement or a ponting out from her fellows! Studying through these kind of videos like ms.Gibson's and papers as well, have helped me to grasp better what's going on and allow as well a kind of predectibility of what will ocurr. So as it happened after my critique...

@@aspegel5281 Moreover, I think a good communication is something fundamental for a healthy relationship. One must consider and respect his/her partner but also be able to talk about hard issues and share our dearest and deepest thoughts. She flees from relationship conversations and receives very badly certain observations. Being so, it's very difficult to fix or improve a relationship. And it hurts being blocked and almost surely being broken up without saying a single word!! I really like her so much and love her, but if she cannot show clearly her borders and what she thinks and wants and neither can meet my needs, this situation won't be healthy neither comfortable for none of us. Anyway, I guess it's over, almost 10 months where we met, had sex at the beggining, everything was lovely and ok but few days later and despite treating both of us with affection, I barely dated her...ONCE after the first weeks when we knew each other and hung out. She said everything would be ok but she's got fear , due to past relationships and how she was raised in her family. I am really sorry for her, for us, but unless she works harder and even with therapy, unless she overcomes her wounds, not just with me but with no one she couldn't have a beautiful and healthy relationship. May God bless and heal her. ..

Thais, which style will come on extremely strong with emotions and then go hot and cold? I have been talking to a man for almost two years who says he loves me and wants to marry me, then ghosts for days - weeks and then comes back to say he misses me so much and still loves me. This cycle has been going on for two years, and because I have fallen in love with him as well, I have been patiently waiting and giving him space. Well since we are at a long distance now cause he had to move away, I gave him a deadline to come see me for the holidays or I need to end this in the new year so we can both move on and find our happiness. I hope I set my boundaries properly, but I am so confused on what the hell he wants with me keeping this connection so intense and then pulling away? Is he Fearful Avoidant or Dismissive Avoidant that fell in love?

With all due respect, the cracking voice you are speaking in seems made up and it is very annoying to listen to. The info you are sharing is great, but the voice is pinching my head. 😢

Thais, I've only done 4 courses so far and already some amazing breakthroughs. My therapist was so happy to see some major changes in me. I was, too. I'm so looking forward to future courses. As one healer to another, you're doing some of the most amazing work I've ever seen. You're not just helpful but inspiring. Thank you so much!
