All Points : Whom I'm Attracted to Based on my Attachment Style
We are born with an intrinsic need for love and human connection. Our "attachment style” (or attachment patterns) determine how each of us reacts to our needs and how we go about getting them met. These internal systems form in early childhood using our experience with our parents and primary caregivers as the point of reference we use to form connections to others in adulthood. Our attachment style affects everything from our partner and friend selection to how well our relationships progress, and, how they end. Knowing our attachment pattern can help us understand our strengths and vulnerabilities within interpersonal relationships. Attachment patterns also influence how we connect to the community, science and medicine, alternative healing modalities, education, politics, and faith. During this episode, we will explore 3 of the 4 attachment styles that exist, and whom we’re attracted to based on our attachment style. Topics covered in this episode: -How our attachment style forms. -Behavior and personality traits that manifest with each attachment style. -Whom we’re attracted to based on our attachment style. -The interplay between our attachment style and toxic relationships. -Unrequited love: When assigning a label to a relationship results in harmful behavior. -Why we can exhibit traits of multiple attachment style based on specific interactions.
