My ex didn't have any photos of me either on his phone or anywhere in his home. We were together 4 years, I found this weird.

If you're ex was indeed an avoidant of some sort then it's not surprising ... many of them don't understand sentiment or even understand how to value it. I hate to say this but one way I've heard it described is that they are "emotionally retarded people" in comparison to most that can and have attached to people thus finding value in others. Avoidants became conditioned to only worry about their needs and how to handle things their way because somewhere along the line their parents failed them. I had an avoidant ex that also didn't put up pics because to her that reminded her that she had to submit to being in a committed relationship and she didn't like that because somehow in her avoidant perspective that was like giving up control and power... when I asked to elaborate she said she didn't even know how to make sense of it, that it's just emotions that happened. I guess in many ways you have to feel sorry for people like that, unless they get help they will most likely never lead fulfilling lives as they wouldn't even know how to if they tried :-(

Yes, my ex was definitely avoidant and also after chatting to someone else on here he was a narcissist. I agree, completely emotionally retarded! And also you're right, anything that made us look like a couple wasn't there. There wasn't any romance and even things like birthday cards stopped. He told me he wasn't into cards (all about him) didn't buy flowers because he didn't like them and thought they were a waste of money (I love flowers, so all about him) wouldn't wear a wedding ring if we had ever got married, wouldn't have cared if I change my surname to his if we ever got married but would want it on my grave if idied (weird!!) It is really sad because these people will never know what true intimate love is.
