Of klettig to distant: What relationship type are you?

Some people find it easy to build relationships and to deepen, while others make you queasy feel, as soon as it comes to a little more liability.

How is it that people think so differently? And you can change if you have detected any problems?

The American psychologist Amir Levine, myself, was just to leave surprisingly, as he began to deal with the binding theory of British psychologist John Bowlby.

And, he noted: There are only three types of binding in the security of all the people einkategorisieren.

1. Secure-Autonomous binding type

People of this type of Relationship can give love and accept, because they trust the Other and also convey self-confidence.

You love and miss your Partner when he is there, and will be happy if you get back together. Also, if you are happy to be part of a couple, don’t you just give but self-reliance.

The world outside of the relationship still plays a role and there is no morbid fixation on the Partner.

2. Insecure-avoidant binding type

To the outside people of this type of Relationship don’t seem to need your Partner or miss, but on the inside it looks different.

You have adjusted to rejection, even if, for example, the absence of a partner has nothing to do with a lack of attention to, but, in practice, is justified. For these people it is not easy to trust others – even their own Partner.

From your own relation types to learn

According to Levine, the awareness of which relationship category you belong to help to understand the separations and to accept, not always because the partnership works out, if it is too different.

Together with his colleague Rachel Heller he began to explore this topic in more detail and to explain in books such as ‘Why are we always in the Wrong to fall in love: relationship types and their importance for our partnership.
