Are you dating or in a relationship with someone who seems emotionally distant, avoids commitment, or struggles to open up? In this episode, The Thais Gibson Podcast breaks down the 40 key traits of the dismissive avoidant attachment style, shedding light on why some individuals fear deep emotional connection and how to navigate these relationship dynamics.

Dismissive avoidant individuals often struggle with vulnerability, emotional intimacy, and long-term commitment—sometimes without even realizing it. This episode will help you identify the signs, understand why they act this way, and explore strategies to foster healthier relationships.
