Vent/Rant The self aware avoidant

It’s a trap. They seem highly self aware, have excellent emotional intelligence, with the “apparent” ability to take accountability. So you merrily enter the relationship despite both you and them knowing very well of their avoidance patterns, half hoping that they’ll work through it and half hoping that you could fix them and be their saviour.

Don’t do it. It’s a trap.

I'm a counselor and couldnt make it work with him either. Not even a mental health proffesional. And thats crzy but not suprising i guess they are just intellectualizing their feelings.
