Attachment styles.
We can get into frankly interesting philosophy and literature studies, and reflect on the downsides of our evolving social order.
But there's also empirical evidence that attachment styles are stable across the human lifespan, from birth, shifting only gradually in response to our own decisions and experiences.
The author is a textbook case of an anxious attacher relating with an avoidant attacher.
The beauty of empirical science is that it can greatly simplify that which we might otherwise struggle our whole lives with. I hope the author finds and attunes herself to a secure attacher and moves on to more novel problems.
