How Your Attachment Style Affects Your Dating Life (And How to Improve It)
So you've been ghosted again. Or maybe you're always the one doing the ghosting. Either way, you're exhausted.
Spoiler alert: It's not just the dating app algorithm. It's your attachment style.
Wait, What’s an Attachment Style?
Your attachment style is basically your emotional blueprint for relationships, formed in childhood and wreaking havoc on your love life ever since.
Secure: You’re calm, open, and trust easily. (Unicorn energy.)
Anxious: You crave closeness, fear rejection, and maybe overthink that "hey" text for three hours.
Avoidant: You value independence... but also ghost when things get real.
Fearful-Avoidant: The emotional equivalent of "it's complicated."
Why It Matters in Dating
Your attachment style affects how you communicate, connect, and navigate dating apps. For example, avoidants might love the low-commitment swiping culture, while anxious folks spiral after being left on read.
