What an avoidant sounds like when they’ve already detached internally.

[00:00:00]I'm not happy.

[00:00:01]>> It means I don't feel connected anymore.

[00:00:02]Conversations feel draining, I feel flat. When you tell me about your day, I get irritated. Not because you're doing anything wrong, I just have the capacity. I keep thinking I'd be better on my own, you know, less responsibility, less expectation. I didn't bring it up because I didn't see the point. Talking about it wouldn't change it how I feel. It would just create tension. And I know that sounds harsh, but I've already made peace with this internally. So, you've been down for a while? Yes. I just don't think saying it earlier would help anyone. I don't see myself as dishonest. I just want to avoid difficult conversations, even though now I realize it's doing more harm than good.
