The Dismissive-Avoidant
You value independence and you're good at not needing anyone. Closeness can feel like pressure, so you keep a little distance, even from people you care about. Self-reliance is a strength, the cost is that the people who want in can feel shut out.
What this usually looks like
- Preferring to handle things alone
- Going quiet or pulling back when it gets intense
- Keeping feelings to yourself by default
