Deep dives

Understanding the Dismissive Avoidant Attachment Style

The Dismissive Avoidant Attachment Style is characterized by individuals being in their feelings minus their fears, leading to a reluctance to commit due to childhood emotional neglect. This attachment style develops early in life when needs are consistently unmet, creating insecurities and a fear of vulnerability. Commitment triggers their sense of self-preservation, causing them to pull away to protect themselves. No contact allows these fears to diminish, giving space for their feelings to resurface.
