Or do you run away as soon as things get serious? It's (maybe) not just bad luck... but rather your attachment style that's playing up. Yes, our reactions in love (and not only) often come from far away... So before blaming Tinder, let's take stock together. What is an attachment style? It's a bit like the pair of emotional glasses that you wear without knowing it. Your attachment style is the way you behave in your close relationships (love, friendship, family), based on what you learned at a very young age. Basically, if you were reassured, listened to, and supported as a child, you develop a secure attachment. Otherwise, there's a chance you'll be anxious, avoidant, or disorganized. Come on, let's review the 4 main styles with concrete examples. 1. The secure attachment style: the Holy Grail \u201cI trust, I feel good, and I communicate clearly.\u201d What it is: You are comfortable with closeness as well as distance. You are not afraid to be vulnerable, but you also know how to set your limits. You trust, you communicate well, you feel neither \u201ctoo much\u201d nor \u201cnot enough.\u201d In relationships: Where does it come from? From a childhood environment where you were: What to remember: This is the most stable style. But rest assured: even if you didn\u2019t have it at the beginning, you can build it little by little as an adult. 2. The anxious attachment style: hyper-attachment \u201cLove me hard, and above all, never leave me.\u201d \u00bb What it is: You have a deep fear of being abandoned. You are often hypervigilant: you analyze silences, things left unsaid, changes in tone of voice. You need constant reassurance, sometimes even to the detriment of your well-being. In relationships: Where does it come from? Often from a parent or relative who was inconsistent in childhood: present one day, absent the next. Your brain has learned that love is unpredictable, so you remain on high alert. What to remember: You can learn to secure yourself from within, set boundaries, choose stable people, and build your own emotional foundation. 3. The avoidant attachment style: love at a controlled distance "Intimacy? No thanks, I can handle everything myself." What it is: You are uncomfortable with emotional closeness. As soon as you feel someone too close, you run away. You withdraw. You cut off. You value independence, sometimes to the point of sabotaging your relationships. You may appear detached, autonomous, strong... but deep down, you're afraid of being hurt. In relationships: Where does it come from? Often from an environment where: What to remember: Intimacy is not a danger. You can learn to be yourself while opening up to the other, to build a bond without feeling imprisoned. 4. The disorganized attachment style: inner chaos "I need you but you scare me." What it is: You want to be loved... but you're afraid of love. You alternate between an extreme need for fusion and a panicky fear of intimacy. You can sometimes unconsciously sabotage your relationships, even when they're healthy. It's a very ambivalent style, often painful. In relationships: Where does it come from? It's often linked to childhood trauma: violence, neglect, abuse, or extreme insecurity. You haven't learned to differentiate between love and danger, so you're in constant internal conflict. What you need to remember: This style can be transformed with support, therapy, and a lot of gentleness towards yourself. It's not inevitable. Can you change your attachment style? Yes, absolutely! Your attachment style isn't a label fixed for life. It's a starting point, not a prison. Yes, you can change it. Understanding your style is already 50 % of work. Knowing that we often have a mix of several types, with one dominant style. Then, you can learn to: And above all: you can give yourself what you haven't always received.
