By Chris Rackliffe| crackliffe.com@ Anxious attachment was my nemesis for many years—long before I ever had a name to describe the phenomenon. I recall countless sleepless nights spent questioning my worth, reading between the lines of every text sent by a potential romantic partner. I’m reminded of the resentment I felt at sacrificing my own needs and placing someone else on a pedestal that loomed above me. I remember the lakes of tears that would form once my fears of abandonment became actualized. But then everything changed.
By Chris Rackliffe| crackliffe.com@ “You’re a great guy but there’s something I need to tell you,” he said despondently, eyes pointed toward the table between us, his warm hands resting atop mine. He looked me in the eyes before continuing on. “I don’t see this going any further. I really wanted to get there, but it’s just not there for me. I truly wish you nothing but the best, but I can’t keep seeing you.”We shared a somber walk to the subway where he dropped me off. Then the dam broke.
