5.0 out of 5 stars, January 17, 2015

I’ve been (it turns out) with an avoidant/dismissive for around 10 years — this book brought me peace because it described his behaviors with such eerie perfection. I was able to understand why our relations had always been tumultuous and why it was okay to leave.

5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL AND INSIGHTFUL BOOK, January 3, 2015
By Dina Hill

This book is wonderful. I have been in a long term relationship for years and we never seem to get it right or communicate properly which has left much confusion in the relationship and caused regular break ups. I found that I am in a relationship with a Dismissive and everything I tried to rebuild the relationship after each break up (because yes we always end up back together) generally made it worse in the end. After reading this book, I understand his personality type and mine and am so much more understanding than I was before. This book has given me a lot of hope and a willingness not to give up on the relationship. Understanding myself and the things I do and how they reflect on the dismissive has really opened my eyes. This book gives not only insight but the tips on how to handle your issues as well as theirs to possibly receive your happy ending or at the very least recognize your personalty type so you can work on it if you need to in order to be healthier for the next relationship.

By Rosalba Gomez

This a fantastic book for anyone who has dealt with a withdrawn or difficult personality. I have read the author’s prior book which discussed the different types of attachment a person can have. This book deals with the more difficult type Aviodant. It was a readible explanation of this particular type, the patterns exhibited and best of all sage advice on how to proceed if you realize you are dealing with one. I highly recommend this book to all.

5.0 out of 5 stars good introduction to attachment styles, December 15, 2014
Verified Purchase
Book provides a clear, concise summary of various attachment styles and issues. Also gives plenty of citations and references to other works for deeper study. Enjoyed the read and found myself nodding “yes” through most of it.

 

The printed version could be a good gift for those single people in your life who seem to be having trouble finding a mate. If you’re daring, anyway!
