On today’s episode, I virtually sit down (again!) with Chris Rackliffe, an anxious attachment style coach. We discuss the telltale signs that you're in an anxious-avoidant dynamic, how to make an anxious-avoidant relationship work, how someone with an avoidant attachment style can learn to open up, learning to appreciate periods of both space and closeness in your relationship, busting the myth that attachment styles are gender-specific, examples of anxious-avoidant couples in pop culture, and more! This episode starts with a solo where I discuss how to be confident walking away when it's not working, rules for holidays for every phase of dating, how to figure out what ring you want, our new apt, how to prepare yourself for a break up while you are living with someone, and how to reignite a desire to date when you've been taking a break.
