Navigating Patterns of Choosing Emotionally Unavailable Partners

If you keep finding yourself in relationships with emotionally unavailable partners who pull away the moment things get real, this episode is for you.

It is confusing and exhausting when someone feels genuinely supportive one moment and completely distant the next.

Here’s the powerful truth: “emotionally unavailable” may not fully capture what is happening. Many partners can appear emotionally present when conditions are favorable, but withdraw the moment vulnerability or feedback threatens their carefully maintained self-image.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why emotional availability feels inconsistent and unpredictable

  • How to recognize subtle shifts when a partner begins to withdraw

  • What to do instead of blaming yourself when connection suddenly collapses

  • How to create safety and clear boundaries so you can break the cycle and move toward the secure, stable connection you truly deserve

Less drama. More genuine security. Finally.

💔 Just went through a breakup? Get immediate clarity and gentle support inside Finding Answers After Your Relationship Has Ended — a CPTSD Medicine guided experience with Tanner.
