About this episode

You might be confused as to why your avoidant attached partner needs as much space or perhaps why they detach and disappear for days. This episode may shed some light and help you assist them.  

If you have an avoidant attachment style and it's kept you from forming meaningful lasting relationship, perhaps this episode will help you manage the fears of opening up to a partner.
