Short story.

They’ll make you feel special…

They even let you get close, then they’ll punish you for being there.

Im in that very situation. Dating a guy for a year now, hes treated me better than anyone ever did. But suddenly it's like the bill is due and i feel like im in the way. Gives me trust issues 😐

Emotionally avoidant, the confusion and inconsistency, it leaves you feeling anxious, not safe.

@FaerieDust exactly how I'm feeling!! He just said he was lashing out, but now i feel as if im taking advantage despite it being pretty even between us in that respect.

And that creates the space they want when things get close.

Oh, I have been through this. I call it “Pull Me In, Push Me Away.”

They seemed warm, caring, and everything I havr ever wanted. But as soon as I let my emotional walls down, they punished me like I was a prisoner. It’s a hurtful pattern that left me confused and anxious.

After repeated “I love you” followed by “Get the fuck away from me,” I started to loathe and hate them. You know what I mean?
