About this listen

Fearful Meets Dismissive: When Insecurity Faces Independence is a deeply immersive therapeutic relationship story that explores what happens when two opposite attachment styles collide—and neither knows how to stay.

When a fearful-avoidant woman longs for closeness but fears abandonment, and a dismissive-avoidant man values independence over emotional vulnerability, their connection becomes a push-pull dynamic filled with longing, confusion, and unspoken pain. Drawn together yet unable to meet in the middle, they reenact patterns rooted in childhood wounds, unmet needs, and survival strategies that once kept them safe—but now keep them apart.

Blending emotionally rich storytelling with gentle psychological insight, this audiobook invites listeners inside the inner worlds of both partners. You’ll hear the thoughts they never say out loud, feel the moments where love almost lands, and recognize the subtle ways attachment shapes attraction, conflict, and disconnection.

Part of The Attachment Drama Healing Series, Fearful Meets Dismissive is designed not just to be listened to—but felt. Whether you identify as fearful-avoidant, dismissive-avoidant, anxious, or simply curious about relationship dynamics, this story offers clarity, compassion, and the beginning of healing.

This audiobook is ideal for listeners who enjoy emotionally intelligent fiction, therapeutic storytelling, and relationship insight that resonates long after the final chapter.
