[quote=Anonymous][quote]She said boyfriend isn't emotional about anything, not just his past. He doesn't want to talk about any difficult things. Not just his past. When a current issue arose with a friend, his choice is to cut contact with the friend rather than discuss the the issue or otherwise resolve so etching difficult. Again nothing to do with his past. She is talking about his current avoidant behavior. Bad things happen now. He seems unwilling or unable to deal with conflict, negativity, being caught in a lie, etc. THAT is the red flag. It's classic behavior seen in adult children of alcoholics. That doesn't mean people can't or don't get past it, but this guy, as described by OP, isn't sounding so great. [/quote] Actually, this sounds a lot like my DH who can't stand conflict and will lie to avoid it. His upbringing was down right "Leave It To Beaver". He does suffer from anxiety/depression but definitely not an ACOA.[/quote]
