I'm happy to allow this to go wherever. I do think my ego wants my ex to come back. But, I also want him back. I miss his quirkiness. He appreciated my lack of filter. I've never met a guy that didn't try to change that part of me. I don't regret "us" at all. I've learned from him and this experience. As much as I try to move on, I can't help but wonder if he misses me too. Then, I cannot forget he seemed so sure he no longer has feelings. That was very hard to hear. Ughhhh, why has this been so much more difficult than any other relationship? I know I'm romanticizing my memories of him. But, I'm not mistaking how I felt. Good news is I have no desire to rebound. The thought of being with another man is not an option. I used to jump from relationship to relationship. The older I get, the more I allow myself to feel pain.

sissyk...an FA has the avoidance of a DA and anxiety of a AP so that may help you better understand why they circle back. AP become anxious in time and space and desire closeness- the FA has that anxiety too but they alternate between being avoidant when things feel too close and then AP in distance. It’s very hot/cold and confusing, where the DA is shut down and feels better off alone. It’s the why and how that make that book so enlightening. After reading that book, I identified so much, but felt so low, so cornered and so hopeless that I tried to take my own life. But, I’m here, I sought therapy and am trying to do something about my end. It’s pervasive, though. 💗 Keep swimming
