Summary of Dismissive Avoidant No Contact: What your avoidant ex is doing now!
The video discusses what dismissive avoidant individuals do during no contact after a breakup.
- Dismissive avoidants may deactivate their emotions about the relationship, leading them to act cold, distant, and give vague reasons for leaving.
- They may switch to other biological operating systems, such as the exploratory system, caretaking system, or sexual system, to cope with uncomfortable emotions.
- The exploratory system may be used for focusing on work, hobbies, or keeping busy to manage feelings.
- The caretaking system may be activated if the avoidant partner wants to spend more time with children or loved ones.
- The sexual system may come into play for some individuals, leading to rebound relationships or struggles with sexual intimacy.
