Dismissive Or Avoidant Attachment Style

Many people find it uncomfortable to trust the other person or to get too emotionally close.

They quickly pull away and ‘go in a cave’ when rejected or hurt.
Having negligent or abusive parents is associated with people having this style, and they often suppress their internal need for love and care.
