Complete transcript: The truth about avoidant attachment

Person 1: I just can't give you what you need.
Person 2: Is this becomes of an issue I brought up earlier? And now you feel like it's a personal attack?
So you're just giving up?
Person 1: I'll ignore your text, and I'll emotionally check out. You'll sense it and ask me about it. But I'll deny it. I'm that disconnected from my own behavior. And denial is how I cope.
Person 2: Why wouldn't you just be open and try and talk it out? I try so hard to talk to you but you just get defensive. It's like you have these walls up and there's no way to get in.
Person 1: Letting you in is terrifying. I'm most comfortable in relationships that are surface and don't demand much of me emotionally. Like in friendships, I'm great with friends, and I have lots of them but intimate relationships If you've noticed, I jump from relationship to relationship. I leave every time someone wants more of me. It feels like so much pressure, and I only want relationships with someone who doesn't require much of me.
