DETACH FROM YOUR ANXIOUS ATTACHMENT
In my journey as a spiritual and transformational coach, I’ve come across many people who are caught in painful and unfulfilling relationships, not because they don't deserve better, but because of their attachment style. How we connect with others, especially in romantic relationships, is often rooted in our attachment style, which is formed early in life. If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in a cycle of being attracted to people who are emotionally unavailable or don’t treat you with the respect you deserve, this might resonate with you.

Understanding Your Attachment Style
Your attachment style influences how you perceive the world and interact with others. It dictates what you find attractive and how you respond when things go wrong in relationships. For those with anxious attachment styles, there’s often a pattern of chasing after people who don’t reciprocate the same level of interest. This can lead to feelings of frustration, self-doubt, and even obsession.
For example, if you’re anxiously attached, you might find yourself fixated on why someone hasn’t responded to your text, overanalyzing every interaction, and feeling drawn to people who are inconsistent in their affections. It’s like being on an emotional rollercoaster—one moment, you’re high with the hope that things will work out, and the next, you’re plummeting into despair because they haven’t replied to you in hours or days.
Why Are We Attracted to the Wrong People?
It’s important to realize that these feelings are not just random—they’re often rooted in your attachment style. If you’re someone who finds themselves stuck in relationships that don’t serve you, you’re likely playing out old patterns from childhood. Perhaps you had a parent who was emotionally unavailable, or maybe you had to earn love through good behavior or accomplishments. These early experiences can shape your adult relationships, leading you to seek out the same dynamics you experienced as a child.
The hard truth is, secure people—those who have a healthy, balanced view of themselves and others—usually don’t get caught up in these types of toxic dynamics. They don’t find the push-pull of an anxious-avoidant relationship attractive. Instead, they seek out and are attracted to partners who are consistent, reliable, and emotionally available. If you find yourself constantly drawn to people who are emotionally distant or who don’t prioritize you, it’s a sign that your attachment style might need healing.
The Role of Avoidance in Men
On the flip side, many men with avoidant attachment styles find themselves in relationships with women who are anxiously attached. They often have their own wounds—perhaps they grew up with overbearing parents, or maybe they learned early on that emotional closeness leads to pain. These men might pull away when things get too intense, leaving their partners feeling abandoned and confused.
If you’re a man who frequently finds yourself in situations where women are asking for more than you’re willing to give, or if you find yourself attracted to women who seem to want something from you that you’re not ready to provide, it’s worth considering whether avoidance is playing a role in your attachment style.
Stop Playing the Dating Games
In today’s world, it’s easy to get caught up in the noise of dating advice. You’ll hear tips and tricks on how to get the guy, how to make her chase you, or how to keep him interested. But the reality is, if you’re focusing on these tactics, you’re missing the bigger picture. It’s not about playing games or manipulating someone into liking you. It’s about understanding yourself and your needs, and choosing partners who are capable of meeting those needs.
If you find yourself constantly chasing after people who don’t treat you well, or if you’re stuck in a cycle of wondering why they haven’t texted back, it’s time to shift the focus back to yourself. What is it about this dynamic that you find appealing? Why aren’t you put off by someone who doesn’t value you or make you a priority?
Healing Your Attachment Wounds
Healing your attachment style isn’t about blaming yourself or others—it’s about recognizing patterns and making conscious choices to change them. If you’re anxiously attached, it’s crucial to start valuing yourself and your needs. Stop settling for breadcrumbs of affection and start demanding the full loaf. It’s about putting yourself first, even when it feels uncomfortable. Remember, as a woman, your body goes through many challenges—menstruation, childbirth, menopause—and you owe it to yourself to prioritize your well-being.
If you find secure men boring, or if you’re constantly drawn to toxic partners, that’s a sign that you need to do some inner work. Once you heal, you’ll no longer find those behaviors attractive. Instead, you’ll be drawn to people who are stable, kind, and genuinely interested in building a healthy relationship with you.
Focus on Yourself First
Before you start worrying about how to get someone’s attention or make them fall for you, focus on yourself. Make yourself a priority. Heal the wounds from your past and work on developing a secure attachment style. This doesn’t mean you’ll never feel anxious or avoidant again, but it does mean you’ll be better equipped to handle those feelings when they arise.
Secure people don’t get caught up in the drama of toxic relationships. They don’t spend their time worrying about why someone hasn’t texted back or whether their partner is interested in someone else. Instead, they choose partners who are consistent, reliable, and emotionally available. They don’t waste time on people who aren’t sure about them.
Ask Yourself the Hard Questions
So, the next time you find yourself obsessing over someone who isn’t treating you well, ask yourself why you’re attracted to that behavior. What is it about that person that pulls you in, even though they’re clearly not meeting your needs? The answers to these questions can be the key to breaking free from unhealthy relationship patterns and finding the love you truly deserve.
Remember, you have the power to change your attachment style. It starts with recognizing the patterns in your life and making a conscious decision to do things differently. You deserve a relationship that is built on mutual respect, trust, and emotional security. Don’t settle for anything less.
