How can you support your partner when they don’t even know what they need? Being an anxious attachment with avoidance tendencies makes it challenging to not this I’m doing something wrong, or shutting down as a protection. I still haven’t recovered from the collateral damage of the last time this happened.

It is difficult to support or help someone going through something....Honestly if i am going through something and working on it .. my partner has tried to Fix or help in ways i was not happy with it does end with collateral damage.   sometimes just communicating you will be ready to help or what ever they need when they are ready  is appreciated

Hiya. Thanks for reaching out. Yeah sometimes they don’t know what they need either. I’d say just let them know you’re there and hopefully when they’re good and ready, they’ll reach out.
