Couple navigating tension and distance

You know this dance.

You text. He takes six hours to reply.

You bring up something that matters. He shuts down or changes the subject.

The closer you try to get, the further he drifts.

And somewhere in the loop, you've started to wonder if it's you.

It's not you. It's a pattern.

What you're caught in has a name: the anxious-avoidant trap. One partner reaches. The other retreats. The reaching makes the retreating worse. The retreating makes the reaching more desperate.

It's one of the most common and most painful dynamics in modern relationships. And once you see it, you can't unsee it.
