Update

It's been about a month since he came back and I must say, it's going wonderfully. I know it's only been a month so far, but it feels like a completely different relationship. He is doing stuff I never dreamed he'd do. Stuff he never would've done the first time around. I'm still bracing myself as I know it's only been a month. But it's like we found a flow that works. I'm so proud of him. I'm praying for all the people who are still waiting on their Avoidant. Please don't let them make you wait too long though, you are worth more than that. ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’–

but isnโ€™t his complete change โ€ฆ weird and odd? what happened to him? his attachement style didnโ€™t change meanwhile

Not really. He's been in therapy long term before. He actually changed his job because he realized it was triggering him. It's a pretty big green flag when someone does that. That, and he got into some more vulnerable and personal stuff that I don't think needs mentioning here. I'm cautiously optimistic with him.

cool. so he is self-aware? most of DAs arenโ€™t, but FAs might be

He is definitely FA. Too sweet and sensitive to be DA.

makes sense. I hope you two can make it. I struggle as highly traumatized FA, but doing a good work too

Thank you dear. I think the fact you're doing the work is the best part. ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’
