7 tips for Avoidant Partners – Attachment Theory in Relationships

If your partner has an avoidant attachment style, you might feel unloved or unimportant. Avoidant partners do not intend to make you feel this way. 

Avoid repetitive fights by learning how to adjust your communication approach so it harmonizes with your partner’s avoidant traits.

  1. Understand that your partner wants to feel valued and appreciated
  2. Give them space and support their activities/hobbies
  3. Modulate eye contact and touch by studying their body language
  4. Practice positive affirmation and do away with negative criticism
  5. Regulate your tone of voice and emotions during a conflict
  6. Give them 1 concrete action to take during a conflict
  7. Look for their affection in their actions and recognize it

Avoidant tendencies may be holding you back from being the couple you want to be. Evolve your relationship with our Breakthrough to Love workshop. Walk away with communication tools for a healthier, stronger, and more playful marriage or relationship.
