However, obtaining it can be challenging, particularly when paired with avoidantly attached partners who may struggle to provide the emotional support required.  This dynamic can lead to a cycle of seeking reassurance through different means, such as sex, which may ultimately be mistaken for love addiction. While the attraction between anxiously attached and avoidantly attached partners is strong, they find it challenging to fulfill each other's emotional needs. Understanding this dynamic is essential to break free from the cycle and create healthier relationships and attachment patterns.
