2 Tests An Avoidant Ex Will Give You Before Coming Back | Megan Weks

Have you finally moved on from your avoidant ex, only to have them reach out with a "casual" message? This is not a random act—it's a calculated test. In this video, we break down the two unconscious tests every avoidant administers before considering a return: The Breadcrumb Test and The Vulnerability Test.

Understanding these tests is the key to determining whether a reconciliation will repeat the same painful patterns or happen on your terms. I'll explain what passing and failing each test looks like, and how your response reveals whether you've genuinely transformed or are still operating from a place of hope and investment.

Learn how to protect your peace, maintain your power, and ensure that if they do return, it's because you've set conditions for a healthier dynamic.
