The AVOIDANT IS IN TEARS AFTER REJECTING YOU, THEY REGRET IT! | Megan Weks

They're crying. They're expressing deep regret. They tell everyone they made a terrible mistake losing you. After all the detachment, their profound distress seems to prove they finally care. It shakes everything you thought you knew and activates every hope that maybe this time it could be different.

In this crucial episode, I'm dissecting the complex, painful truth about avoidant tears and regret after a breakup. We're moving beyond surface appearances to understand the psychological functions of this emotional display. Their pain is real, but what—and who—are they actually mourning? We'll break down why this regret almost never equals genuine change, how these tears can be manipulative (consciously or not), and why responding to your compassion now is the surest way to re-enter the cycle of pain.

If you're struggling with boundaries because your avoidant ex is suffering, this video is your essential guide to seeing the situation clearly, protecting your healing, and staying committed to your forward path.
