Understanding how we create our emotional bonds can impact how we see dating and relationships. By knowing this, they will get an idea of how they approach relationships. Here’s a brief overview.

1. Secure Attachment

People with a secure attachment style are more comfortable with intimacy and are usually more satisfied with their relationships. They can depend on their partner and do the same for them too, without fear of abandonment.

People with an anxious attachment style always ask for closeness but always worry about whether their partner will love them back. They may need constant reassurance and they fear abandonment.

3. Avoidant Attachment

Those with this attachment style usually value independence over intimacy. They may feel uncomfortable with too much closeness and struggle to open up emotionally, leading them to keep their partner at a distance.
