The day I read about anxious and avoidant attachment. I was in Jaipur at the time, it was 2-3 AM. I asked you what anxious attachment meant and if I have it. Ever since that night, for the next week, that was the only thing I could think of. For days on end, I kept reading about anxious vs avoidant attachment. The things I read were surprisingly true, which I didn’t want to believe at first. ChatGPT told me to ignore you, reply late, and advised me not to always help you - but I just couldn’t do that. This isn’t who I am. It told me there is a chance you would leave and distance yourself if I keep nagging you with my feelings and emotions. The last thing I would want for us is to be distant, to drift apart. I shed tears, not only because I was sad but because I was afraid. Afraid of hurting something I genuinely value. Then, I finally mustered up the courage to send you voice messages explaining how I feel; not to pressure you, but to be honest.
