THE LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS—WHY YOU
ARE MORE LIKELY TO MEET AVOIDANTS WHEN
YOU GO OUT ON A DATE
There is one last reason you will probably meet and date a fair share
of avoidant people. Consider the following three facts:
- People with an avoidant attachment style tend to end their
relationships more frequently. One study found that of
individuals who entered a new marriage following a divorce, the
avoidant ones were more likely to divorce again. They also
suppress loving emotions and therefore “get over” partners very
quickly so they can start dating again almost immediately.
