Anon thinks he “won” by getting the girl, not realising that entering a relationship isn’t the finish line.

if two people die together at the same time, foul play is always suspected.

Believe it or not? This is avoidant attachment style.

Like literal fucking definition.

Probably, but could just as well be anxious attachment since we don’t have the whole story. I’m on the anxious side and this happens a lot if the other doesn’t show enough interest or is closed off in conversation.

fair. I guess I haven’t dated anyone other than my ex wife so… I guess I really shouldn’t jump to these conclusions.

My first thought was OP is dismissive avoidant. It’s the no-overlap Venn diagram of, “I want to be close enough to be loved, but not close enough to be hurt.” OP: go take one of the attachment style tests online. There’s a lot of good stuff that might help you get out of this Catch 22. Who knows, though? There is scant information.

OP: do you find yourself resenting your partner? Wishing they’d get out of your space/stop bugging you with their needs?

I get it. I wouldn’t want to date a girl who has so little self-confidence as to date me.

Sounds like OP was focused on finding someone cute and willing to date him, than someone he genuinely clicked with and could have fun with even without sex. Don’t get me wrong, sex is great and very important for couples (outside of the Ace spectrum), but I truly pity people who aren’t dating their best friends.
