Have you ever dated a dismissive avoidant who seemed amazing at first—only to slowly pull away around the 6-month mark? You’re not imagining it. In this episode, Thais Gibson reveals the hidden avoidant timeline—why avoidants often show their “best self” early on, but gradually reveal deeper fears, wounds, and patterns as attachment builds.

You’ll learn the 6 stages of relationships, why avoidants change gears between month 6 and 12, and the specific fears that surface once emotional bonds deepen. Thais also shares practical communication tips to help you navigate the power struggle stage and strengthen your connection instead of losing it.

You’ll learn:

  • ✅ The 6 stages of every relationship—and where most couples break up

  • ✅ Why avoidants seem warm and connected early, then start to pull away

  • ✅ How “feelings minus fears” explains their shift after real attachment forms

  • ✅ The specific fears that trigger avoidant distancing behaviors

  • ✅ How flaw-finding becomes a subconscious self-protection strategy

  • ✅ Communication techniques to resolve conflict without pushing them further away

  • ✅ How to frame needs positively so avoidants feel safe enough to meet them
