    I never knew the "I love you as a friend/family member" was a rationalisation.
    It all makes bloody sense now!

    ratonalizations of my ex:
    - you remind me too much of my family
    - the way you dress
    - you are too clean
    - you are the neediest person in the world
    - I can't give you what you want
    - we are just incompatible
    - you are not adventurous
    and before I heard:
    - you are the perfect partner I imagined
    - you are the most adventurous person I ever met
    - we will grow old together
    - picked a place where we could get married
    - talked about rasing kids together
    screw them... avoidants are soul parasites, most people had some childhood issues, not an excuse to torture people with fake future projections or to keep people around you for years even when you know you can't love them back but you are too much of a coward to communicate or to face uncomfortable emotions. run avoidant, hide in your safe spaces, you need to be safe at all costs you poor babies, emotions are scary, so scary...

      You almost summarized my 10-year relationship. The breakup reasons were: she wanted to find herself, we were incompatible, I was a good person, she trusted me, but she had a feeling she had to do this for herself, and she was unhappy. I asked her why she did not bring these up earlier to address them. She said she did not feel she could convey that to me. I was so confused and blindsided.

    from my DA ex:
    when I picked up things I had in his apartment and told him he could have just broken up with me or let me do it when I wanted to, instead of ghosting: It wasn't ghosting! I did not block you!
    And bonus: you are one of the most important people in my life, I love you, but I can't be in a relationship right now (he was for 4 months, then he jumped on Tinder less than 2 weeks after), I cannot give you what you want, I don't want to work on myself and you've been a threat to my independence (whatever that supposed to mean). But hey, do not pick up all your things (like my nightgown), it's not the last time you are here, we can still be something! Why don't you want to go on this thing we have planned just 3 days from now? It wouldn't be an issue since we won't be a couple anymore!

      The worst thing about these relationships isn't even not being able to say more than "I like you". What destroys a relationship with avoidants is the inability to take responsibility and say the golden word: (I'm) Sorry.
      The inability to deal with mistakes and preferring to remain resentful all their lives -- the majority.

    That was so funny, and to be honest, so very true when it's not the right person. I was expecting you to receive a phone call toward the end of your skit from a person you want to meet to set up a date. Gotta' go...bigger name on the other line. LOL

    Thank you thank you thank you! After 2 years of begging he finally said I could kiss him. He didn't lean in so I was confused as hell so I just started kissing his cheek...which eventually turned into me practically making love to his face....and I paused before kissing his mouth and he looked around like it was a wine tasting or something...I had tears in my eyes because I haven't loved in 10 years since my terrible divorce and I got so flooded with realizing I COULD love again...and I let it slip I whispered "I love you"... And I got back I love you too...and I began to weep and he looked so freaked out and then added, BUT LIKE A SISTER.
    Needless to say my soul fell out of my body and I was flooded with hurt, insult, questions about what kind of family asks a sister to kiss him....I mean If I had the power to apparate I would have poofed out of there so fast.

      I had to send my avoidant screenshots from the dictionary to explain the differences between between a friend and a lover. After lovebombing me for a few months then pulling away and me learning about his cheating in the meantime, I found out that for him if the person you're dating isn't the one you are 100% sure you want to marry, then it's just a friendship.

    The rationalisations out of nowhere:
    - There’s no spark and you clearly love me much more than i love you and it’s not fair (she being the first one saying things like: so what are we? A couple right?, you’re my soulmate, we’re gonna spend our lives together, i’ve never fallen in love like this, you’re my bff, you’re the love of my life, can’t wait to live together, i’ve never felt more safe in my life)
    - i can’t be thinking about good morning text every day. (Girl… what?)
    - I need to work on myself (2 weeks after the break up she was already flirting with someone else)
    - I used to think we were like twins.. but we’re not… (because i didn’t like a movie she liked 🫠)
    - you’re too perfect it makes me feel bad.. (which made me “perfect” was me not neglecting her feelings and needs like absolutely everyone else in her life, taking care of her, solving things with open communication instead of reacting… i mean THE BARE MINIMUN IN ANY HEALTHY HUMAN BEING)

    I saw my ex today whilst shopping. And i didnt even know it was him consciously, subconsciously i did. But i was to occupied to really notice. About 30mins later something told me to reach out. So i did. And i find that he blocked me. Would anybody have any reason for that. I didnt say anything to him for years.
