[quote=Anonymous]My avoidant attachment husband and I (anxious attachment) are getting divorced. Our therapist has said we are on either side of the mountain with the grand canyon between us. He is overwhelmed and even more avoidant. He would have continued to live like this (he moved to the basement and rarely comes out) until we died. I was holding on because I thought he would demand kids 50/50 and I couldn't bear to be away from them that much. He seemed relieved when I started with a much higher split (every other weekend with him, otherwise with me). He accepted and my goodness, why didn't I do this years ago?!? He moves out June 1st. So much heartbreak and grief and worry over spilling the beans to the kids...but I can't deal with the push and pull of connection seeking (me) and pulling away (him). I'm going crazy. Finally making myself a priority.[/quote]
