Think a breakup is the end of the story? Think again. In this episode, we dive into why breakups are often not as final as they seem and how human attachment has a sneaky way of keeping people emotionally tethered, even when they think they've walked away for good.
We explore how the person who initiates the breakup often holds the power to get their ex back, while the one left behind feels anxious, confused, and helpless. You'll learn why many people end relationships without being fully sure, how “soft” breakups differ from hard ones, and how attachment styles like avoidant and anxious keep both people emotionally hooked. Even in toxic dynamics, the bond can be harder to shake than anyone expects. Plus, Karolina shares raw insights from our own breakups to show just how murky things can get when attachment is involved.
If you're trying to understand your ex or wondering how to get your ex back, this episode is for you.
