What does it look like when husbands have preoccupied attachment? Basically they act controlling, jealous, and insecure... while trying to do it in a socially approved of manner. Harassing their wife with shit she needs to learn and ways she can be closer.... all while limiting his ability to ever actually get laid because he seems like a bottomless pit of need. Cute, right? I also discuss why this goes better when women have this attachment style than when men do. Because, biology.
Remember to listen to the episode Attachment Theory Overview (paid episode from May 13: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6dKujgHKgrjcAy2jiwM6oA?si=upnAyRtnT_S0VWcDvUIeAA) to understand more about this!
