Can an #avoidant love you?
Here I explain:
how Avoidants get triggered,
why they behave the way they do,
and
what helps them realise you are a safe harbour for them - and they can be for you.

I've been doing lots of media today about 'how to cope with work post-holiday'.
Now I can just suggest 'doing a Starmer' and quitting your job.

Keir Starmer's final speech sounded very therapeutic - and I mean this positively.
A speech you'd utter after heartbreak to create your own emotional closure, feel centrered, positive + proud of how you have behaved and how you choose to live going forward.

A wonderful lunch party to celebrate the publication of @iaindale.bsky.social 's new biography HAVE I SAID TOO MUCH.
Iain gave a heartfelt speech, especially about his dear friend Ann Widdicombe. She'd praised the book highly - apart from. Chapter 6! (IYKYK).

And in an incredibly personal conclusion to his speech, he will now focus
"on the most important job: being the best husband I can to my incredible wife Vic... and being the best Dad I can to my beautiful children who are my pride and joy."

I suppose you could with excessive generosity read this as "undue pressure" but "no pressure" is just nonsensical. This was a decision to appoint a specific figure to a hugely important diplomatic role: it did not take the form of a text to the FCDO saying "Mandy for US ambo? no worries if not xx".
"No pressure existed whatsoever" on the FCDO to appoint Mandelson, Keir Starmer tells the House of the Commons. And that, I think, is gonna be a big big hostage to fortune.
