How do avoidants handle the abrupt change in routine?

I’m an anxious attachment who was discarded after 5 months. Her and I had a couple consistent routines, one being where we would call and ask about each others day, and then play PS5 together for 5+ hours every single night. The other was Tuesday night trivia’s at the bar that we would rarely ever miss.

One night we signed off ps5 for the last time and she ghosted me for a week before discard. The abrupt loss of my daily routine has hit me extremely hard, I haven’t even turned on my PS5 and going to trivia with friends has been very difficult. So how do avoidants feel? Are they just numb to the new reality? Is there any sort of “something is missing…” when they get off work and there’s no one to call to vent to or play games with? I know she doesn’t have someone to take my spot for those, none of her friends were really gamers. Idk why I even want to know this I just can’t wrap my head around someone being okay with such a massive abrupt change
