Four phrases avoidants use that gaslight you into doubting your own perception, rooted in their struggle with vulnerability rather than a lack of love.

Key points

  • "I just need space" -- but the space never ends.
  • "I don't know what I feel" -- said right after you ask for clarity.
  • "You're overthinking it" -- dismissing your reasonable request for clarity.
  • "I don't want to lose you" -- while actively pulling away.
  • Avoidants don't struggle with love; they struggle with vulnerability.
