[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]0056 here For those of you with experience in these relationships, how do you break through? I cannot even maintain a solid friendship with this person. [/quote] PP again...I would not recommend you try to "break through" with this kind of person. Both of the women I was involved with who were like this came from backgrounds of emotional neglect (at least, out and out abuse in some respects - parents with substance abuse and mental health issues); this avoidant stuff is something *they* have to tackle - they have to want to make the change and they have to do the work. You cannot "break through". Honestly, the break through for me was recognizing my own issues: why I was drawn to someone who treated me this crappy (conditional love) way, and making some changes in myself. That changed who I was attracted to, and I stopped winding up in miserable relationships with this kind of partner. [/quote]
