Have you experienced these before? I’ve read in the threads others being in the same boat with fair weather friends or those who jump ship after some time. Avoidant types tend to shrink away at closeness or intimacy as it’s something they fear. So it’s not you- really, it’s their past traumas affecting their current life and relationships and world view. So that they see it as a threat when you want to get close. And they are not ready to face these traumas or emotions so they pull away and if you try to pry, they see it as an attack.
