Can my perspective change this much from avoidant to anxious?
I’m wondering if going from avoidant to anxious can actually change how I see things in my relationship. Most part of my relationship I was leaning avoidant but then something happened and I activated and have been more anxious now. When I was avoidant I didnt have any problem with how often I saw my partner and I didn’t feel like we are seeing each other too rarely but now when anxious I feel like we see each other less than before and that my partner isn’t as keen on seeing me or texting me and I’m spiralling because of it. We have discussed about this and he doesn’t think we see each other less or that he’s behavior or feelings would have changed. I also got unemployed some weeks ago and now I have a lot of freetime so I know that affects how I feel a bit since I have some much time to be by myself and it’s probably making me wanna hang out with my partner more. I’m just wondering can being anxious affect how I see this situation or might I be correct and he’s not as keen to see me as often…
