Avoidant Attachment

You have an avoidant attachment style - you're self-reliant, independent, and capable, but intimacy tends to feel uncomfortable and closeness can trigger an urge to withdraw. You may dismiss emotional needs (your own and others') as weakness, and relationships may feel overwhelming when they get very close. This isn't a character flaw - it's a strategy that once protected you. But it often costs you the deep connections you may secretly want.
