I feel terrible now
I just watched a video about anxious attachment and having a partner who’s avoidant and how if he pulls away you pull slightly to give him space and now I’m worried I didn’t do that and it’s gonna ruin everything. I get super anxious and only just realised he’s probably a bit of an avoidant, but when I started to realise him drifting I panicked, the last time this happened the guy left me for someone else, so I tried to hold on, I tried to talk about it and get both our emotions out in the air which really helped, we both saw how the other was feeling. Our communication is great and we both said we don’t wanna loose the other, but now I’m worried that by me being my anxious self and being like I’m scared you don’t like me anymore I’m actually pushing him away. I get even worse when I’m on my period and this week has been hell, and he understood that and always makes me understand that I don’t have anything to worry about, but I still will. I’ll convince myself of horrible things and see horrible images. Like him messaging another girl or him laughing to his friends about me, idk I know he isn’t but it feels that way and I wanna stop. I’m trying to pull away a bit now, even though me being on his best friends list really stresses me out for zero reason just because the last guy to fuck uo my life that was the first red flag but I’m trying very hard to move past that! I’m just so very much all for him, I never wanna loose him, and I I’m really scared I’m going to because of my anxiety. He does make sure I know he’s all here for me and not going anywhere but gosh I can never stop thinking this way how do I do it? How do I stop?!
