AVOIDANCE & Fear of Dependency - "Whenever we get close, one of us pulls away"
Mar 30, 2022 • S03 E09 • 00:16:17
If you've ever wondered why your partner (or date) seems to withdraw after you've got on so well, this might be why. In this podcast I talk about how the fear of being dependent on people can lead to a fear of commitment, ghosting, an avoidance of intimacy, and possibly a reliance on substances. This podcast will help you to understand what's happening with avoidance, so that you can better protect yourselves and each other.
