Is It Possible To Have A Steady And Safe Relationship With An Avoidant Man – Erin and Evan’s Story Part 1
Have you ever wondered if it's possible to have a steady and safe relationship with a man who is avoidant?
If you’ve ever found yourself waiting by your phone, wondering why your “avoidant-dismissive” partner goes silent for days, or feeling stuck trying to fix emotional disconnection in a relationship, this episode is made for you.
Juliana is interviewing our Bring Him Closer Lab member, Erin, and her partner, Evan, to show you what’s actually happening in the nervous systems of both partners as they navigated the complexities of chemistry, mixed signals, no contact, breakup, reconnection, and deep healing for anxious-avoidant dynamics.
Inside…
We’ll explore how an “avoidant man” thinks when he is giving mixed signals, pulling back, and going silent.
You’ll hear how a simple phrase, even a sentence, can turn avoidance into reconnection, and how courageous fights can become generative rather than damaging.
You’ll see what’s possible in under 5 months when you’re following a proven method to connect deeper with your partner.
You’ll walk away with new insight into how avoiding conflict actually clouds emotional attraction in men and how to invite in space without losing connection.
This episode is for you if:
You’ve experienced relationship communication breakdown or struggled with reconciling anxious‑avoidant dynamics
You’re curious why men pull away and go quiet, and what’s really going on inside
You want tools for healthy conflict resolution for couples and emotionally safe reconnection
You want to learn how to reconnect after emotional distance without tantrums or threats
